So while teaching children about flowers, let’s learn to draw Hibiscus flowers together. Here’s a brief preview of today’s tutorial.  Please go through the instructions step by step to complete your sketching.

Step 1: Sketch Style of Hibiscus Flower

Start with the flower’s gynoecium style by sketching a short line moving upward that is inclined to the right in the middle of the paper. Again, sketch a line from the end of the previous line parallel to it moving downward.

Step 2: Sketch the Petal of the Flower

For the flower petal, from the lower end of the style, sketch an irregular curve moving downward and returning towards the style forming an irregular half-c-shaped structure.

Step 3: Add the Second Petal of the Flower
