1

Make one simple circle like so, and then a body line should be sketched in as well.

2

Thicken the shape you drew in step one because this is going to be the head. Draw in two big eyes, and then draw two curly antenna.

3

Draw out the body like so, and draw in a circle in the middle of the thorax.

4

Here in this step, you will be drawing out the dragonfly wings. As you can see there is two wings on each side of their body. You can choose to tweak the style of wing if you like, or you can leave it how you see it here.

5

Repeat the same exact thing with step five as you did in step four. Draw the left wings like so, and move along.

6

Okay guys are you ready to finish this dragonfly off? Good so am I. All you have to do is sketch in the rib pattern on each wing you drew. Once that is done you can clean up the mess to prepare this drawing for coloring.

7

That's it, choose your color pallet, and begin adding some vibrant patterns to this beautiful dragonfly.
