Everybody loves flowers, and here are 100 beautiful blooms for you to draw!

Whether you prefer the understated beauty of a simple daisy or the garish good looks of a flamingo lily, you're bound to discover a flower in Draw 100: Flowers that you will find irresistible β€” and you will just want to pick up your pencil and start drawing! There are everyday garden blooms such as roses and tulips, delicate wild varieties such as primroses and bluebells, and a whole range of exotics, too, if you want to try something a bit different.

Each flower is broken down into six simple stages that lead you effortlessly through to the finished drawing. There are no written instructions to follow β€” just basic shapes and pencil strokes. Even if you've never drawn anything before, you will be amazed at how quickly you will achieve incredibly impressive drawings. Every project also shows two finished examples of the flower β€” one shaded with pencil and the other with colour.

This is the perfect book for budding artists yearning to draw their favourite posies, or the experienced artist looking for a variety of subjects to inspire.

The material in this book is taken from the following books in Search Press's successful How to Draw series: Flowers, Garden Flowers, Wild Flowers, Exotic Flowers.
