How to Draw a Easy Bee
First things first: have your supplies handy. You’ll need a sheet of paper, a pencil, an eraser, and some colored pencils for decorations.
Position and Outline
First sketch out the bee’s body in the shape of an oval. Don’t worry if it isn’t perfectly round. Just draw it as if it were an egg. Next start to draw an outline of the wings and antennae, making sure they look like they fit on the bee.
Add Details
For the body, fill in wings and antennae with short, slightly curved strokes. Add segments to the body with small “U” shapes. Add details like eyes and stripes if you’d like. Make sure to have fun with it!
Add Texture
To add some life to the drawing, add a bit of texture to the wings and body with small wavy lines. For the antennae, add several flat and pointed triangular shapes along the length.
Decorate
Finally, add some color to your bee with colored pencils. Make sure the color complements the tone of the drawing and the subject of the bee. Add bits of sparkle and fun by adding bits of glitter and sequins.
Feet and Spots
Draw the bee’s feet at the bottom of the body with two small circles. For the extra details, use short, tiny lines to draw spots and stripes on the wings. Lastly, finish off by adding a few curves here and there to give the bee extra personality.
Legs
Draw two curved lines on the underside of the bee’s body. This will give the bee six legs that you can add by adding more “U” shapes. Now your bee has its own personality!
Finishing Touches
It’s time to make your bee unique. Use your eraser and pencil to add shading around the bee’s body or its wings. You can also add highlights and shadows to bring your bee to life. With a few simple strokes, you can bring your bee to life in no time!
