Flow Drawing: How to Draw a Tulip Bouquet: You all loved our How to Draw a Poppy guide, so we’re really excited to bring you a new colorful and expressive floral flow drawing project that’s perfect for spring. A beautiful bouquet of tulips!

This pretty spring flower has the ideal shape for children to explore; it includes both curves and points, as well as layers of unfurling petals, for children to study perspective and depth. And since tulips naturally come in a range of bright and cheerful colors, they’re perfect to encourage children’s creativity as well.

The project is also a great way for children to explore color mixing. Literally using their artwork as the paint pallet, younger children can discover the basics of making colors and get a lovely tactile introduction to shading, whilst older children can explore light and shade, the intracies of tone and texture, and using color to create depth.
