Butterfly Art Project

We did a butterfly art project on the weekend and I would love to share the steps with you. Perfect for spring, these bright happy butterflies will be a delightful happy presence in your learning space.

• First draw a round head and a long thin body.

• For the first half of the wing, jump out to the left, down and across to the body. 

• Do the same on the other side. 

• For the bottom half of the wing, loop around. 

• And do the same on the other side.

• Draw two big eyes.

• Draw a happy smile and curly antennae. 

• Decorate the wings with hearts and circles - or some patterns of your own.

• Now paint, color or crayon your butterflies in some beautiful happy colors. 

If you are a Pond VIP, we've added some printable pages for this project in the 'exclusive' section of our library.  Included is the printable steps and writing papers. 

We also have a butterfly in our Spring Garden Directed Drawing packet over at TpT.
