Easy Flower Sketches Simple
Flower sketches like the geranium below are the place to flesh-out ideas before drawing.
Practice sketching by tracing to get your drawing hand warmed up. Try a freehand rendition too. A light box or opaque projector can help with your practice. Get discovered on
your own artist web page here.
It's all free and it will stay that way.
Note that the leaf edges are lobed, not smooth. Long stalks hold up the bloom head. In life the leaves have light and dark patterns depending on the variety. The bloom is a cluster rather than a single blossom. See
drawings of flowers
and digital
rose clipart
for colored examples.
Some varieties of geranium are cultivated and distilled for essential oils

used in healing or perfumes. And others are Lepidoptera food as seen in some
butterfly drawings.
Geraniums probably made their way from South Africa to the botanical garden in Leiden before 1600 A.D. on ships that had visited the Cape of Good Hope.
