How to draw a dragonfly with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Easy drawings for kids and beginners.

Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below

You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Start by drawing a small circle. This will form the dragonfly’s head. Below the circle, draw a small oval. This forms the thorax, or midsection, of the insect.
Step 2
Below the oval, draw a larger, elongated oval with a slightly pointed tip. This forms the belly or tail of the dragonfly.
Step 3
Draw wings. Extend a long and curved line from the top of the chest. Curve this line back until it meets the base of the thorax, completely enclosing the wing.
Step 4
Repeat this process on the opposite side to form the second wing. Again, using a long, curved line, join at both ends to the chest.
Step 5
Draw the lower wing. Again, you’ll extend a long, curved line from the chest, allowing it to fold in half to envelop the shape.
Step 6
Draw the last part of the dragonfly’s four wings. Extend a long, curved line from the chest and let it double in half to enclose the shape.
Step 7
Draw dragonfly eyes. To do so, draw two half circles in front of the head, using a short, curved line for each circle. Then draw the dragonfly’s front legs. For each front leg, extend a curved line from the junction of the head and chest. Notice the bend in the middle, forming a joint in the leg. Then, stretch a second curve roughly parallel to the first, allowing the lines to meet at the endpoints. Repeat on the double side.
Step 8
Add details to your dragonfly. Draw the veins on the wings using curved lines. For the upper wings, draw a long and curved line down the length of the wing. Then extend a few shorter curved lines from this line to the edge of the wing. For the lower wings, draw two curved lines down the length of each wing. Finally, texture the ribcage using short and curved lines.
Step 9
Indicates the division of the abdominal vertebrae by short, curved lines.

How To Draw A Fly Step By Step – Insect drawing easy
How To Draw A Fly with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Easy animals to draw for beginners and kids.
Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below

You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Start by drawing the head of the fly. Use a series of curved lines to outline the shape of the head. Notice the nearly flat base of the head, and the two circular protrusions at the front of the head. For each eye, wrap a small oval in a larger oval.
Step 2
Use a curved line to enclose an oblong shape at the base of the head. Then use a second line to enclose another curved shape.
Step 3
Extend a curved line from each side of the fly’s neck. Allow the lines to meet at a sharp point, enclosing the fly’s chest or midsection.
Step 4
Use a curved line to enclose a curved shape, following the curvature of the pointed end of the ribcage. Then, use a long, curved line to enclose the round belly.
Step 5
Draw the wings of the fly. Extend a curved and long line from the chest. Double the line back to itself to attach to the belly.
Step 6
Draw the remaining wing. Start by extending the line from the chest. Again, double the line back to itself and connect it to the belly.
Step 7
Draw the fly’s front legs, erasing guide lines as necessary. Just below the neck, extend two curved lines. The lines should be roughly parallel and joined at the origin. Notice how the lines bend twice, creating segments in the legs. Allow the lines to meet at a sharp point. Texture the leg with short lines and repeat this process to create a mirror image on the opposite side.
Step 8
Draw two curved lines extending up from the front of the head, forming the whiskers. Structuring the fuselage and wings using curves of different lengths.
Step 9
Draw the hind legs of the fly. For each leg, extend a pair of curved lines from below the wings. Allow the seams to form a sharp point and repeat on the opposite side to create a mirror image.
Step 10
Color your fly. House flies are usually black, but flies also come in a variety of colors. For example, some are metallic green or blue.

How To Draw A Dragonfly Easy Step By Step
How To Draw A Dragonfly with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Easy animals to draw for beginners and kids.
Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below

You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1:
Draw a large, medium and small circle overlapping each other (like a skinny snowman).
Step 2:
Starting at about the bottom half of the middle oval, draw a long, curved line that curves upwards on each side. Draw two more upward curved lines from the bottom oval.
Step 3:
Connect the ends of the top lines to the top circle to create the top wings. Connect the bottom lines to the bottom of the top wings (about a third of the way from the body).
Step 4:
Draw a curved line across the upper body, touching both top wings. Next, draw a larger curved line on that line, joining the two ends of the previous line, to create the head. On top, add a very small curve.
Step 5:
Draw two bowl shapes at the top to create the eyes. Then draw the belly by making two long lines from the bottom of the chest, connected by a curved line (it should look like a very long and slim U).
Step 6:
Draw curved, horizontal and vertical lines down the belly to create segments.
Step 7:
Draw the legs coming out from under the upper wing and the legs coming out from under the bottom wing.
Step 8:
You can stop following the instructions here and decorate the wings however you want (if you want them to be swirly or lifelike). To create more realistic wings, you will need to divide them into segments. Start with circular segments (as shown in the picture).
Step 9:
Make stripes in the shape of the wings.
Step 10:
In the end, you’ll fill the wings with smaller, roughly proportional segments.
Step 11:
Once you’ve finished drawing your dragonfly, you can color it with any color you like!
