In this simple drawing lesson, learn how to draw a cute butterfly drawing.

You will need:
- Pencil
- Pen
- Eraser
- Paper
- Colored pencils or crayons
- Ruler (suggested)
Jeff's Tips & Ideas : Use lightly sketched pencil lines first for the structure. After, use a pen to draw in the final lines. When you're finished, erase the underlying pencil lines to reveal your drawing. Then - color it!
Let's start! Follow step by step our easy indications below !
STEP 1
Draw a simple framework, composed of basic shapes. Be sure to keep your penciled lines nice and light. Later, you can go over your structure with a dark, permanent pen or marker. The penciled lines will easily erase with a kneaded eraser when you're finished. Note the use of a centerline - to help maintain symmetry as you draw.

STEP 2
Add a couple triangles for wings, and lines for antennae.

STEP 3
Draw the face.

STEP 4
Add in the head and body.

STEP 5
Continue with the antennae.

STEP 6
And finally - draw in the wings. Get creative here - there are tons of different looks that butterflly wings can take on.

STEP 7
Here is the finished lined version.

And finally - with a little color - your cartoon butterfly looks amazing! Nice work. :-)
