The structure of a dragonfly:
A dragonfly mainly has a head , wings, abdomen and other main structural parts. The head structure mainly includes: 3 single eyes; a pair of thin, short and long antennae; chewing mouthparts. The abdomen is elongated, flat or cylindrical, with an anal appendage at the end. The claws are thin and weak, and have hooks on them to catch pests while flying in the air. Dragonflies generally fly around ponds or rivers, and their larvae develop in the water. Dragonflies have a wide range of food habits, so they cannot be relied upon to control pests alone.
How to draw a dragonfly in simple strokes:
Use simple strokes When representing a dragonfly in a form, you must first understand its living habits, such as where the dragonfly usually lives, the range of food, etc. The second step is to consider how to draw the shape and charm of the dragonfly. The specific drawing method is:
The first step is to position the composition. Before drawing the dragonfly specifically, you must first Consider drawing a few dragonflies and placing them where in the picture to make the picture look more comfortable.
The second step is to use a lighter ratio or some hard objects to gently draw the large shape of the dragonfly on the paper. Use light force when drawing. As long as you can see it yourself, it will be easier to modify when drawing later.
The third step is to formally express the simple drawing. Start from the head, draw two circles, and then draw a line from the bottom of the circle. For a long line, draw a fork at the end of the line. After this step is completed, add two pairs of wings, so that a dragonfly has been completely drawn.
The fourth step is to add some auxiliary scenery. Dragonflies basically hover in ponds and other watery places for a long time, so you can add some such as lotus leaves, Reeds and other aquatic plants will enrich the picture.
