How to Draw a Sunflower: Step-by-Step for Kids

A sunflower has a big round centre packed with seeds and a ring of long, pointed petals. Draw the middle first and build the petals around it.

What You'll Need

  • Pencil (HB or 2B)
  • Eraser
  • White drawing paper
  • Black marker for the outline
  • Yellow, brown and green pencils
  • Coloured pencils or crayons

Step-by-Step: Drawing a Sunflower

Step 1: Draw the centre

Draw a medium-sized circle. This is the seed head, the middle of the flower.

Step 2: Add the seed pattern

Fill the circle with small crisscross lines to make tiny diamond shapes, like a net.

Step 3: Draw the first petals

Around the centre draw four petals: one at the top, bottom, left and right. Each is a long pointed oval.

Step 4: Fill in the petals

Add more petals in the gaps until the circle is fully surrounded. Overlap them slightly.

Step 5: Add a second ring

Draw a second ring of petals behind the first, tucked between them, so the flower looks full.

Step 6: Draw the stem

From the bottom of the flower, draw two long parallel lines that curve slightly.

Step 7: Add the leaves

On each side of the stem, draw a large heart-shaped leaf with a line down the middle for the vein.

Step 8: Outline and erase

Trace with a marker and erase the pencil.

Colouring Your Sunflower

Colour the petals sunny yellow with orange at the base. Use dark brown in the centre, with a lighter brown ring on the outside. The stem and leaves are green, with darker green in the veins.

Tips for Drawing a Sunflower

  • Draw the petals like a clock. Start at 12, 3, 6 and 9, then fill in between.
  • Make the petals different sizes. Perfectly equal petals look stiff.
