Trumpet Flowers and Butterfly With Stippled Shading

A cluster of trumpet-shaped flowers fills the page, with open blooms facing different directions and a few buds still closed near the top. Each flower has pointed petals with dashed center lines, and fine stippled dots add shading inside the throats and along the petal edges. Long pointed leaves spread out around the bottom, and a star-shaped bloom sits low in the bunch. In the upper right, a butterfly with striped, dotted wings rests just above the flowers. The lines are clean and the shapes are fairly large, so it works well for kids who like a bit of detail and for older children who want to try shading. Try coloring the flowers in graduated blues and purples, then use a darker pencil over the stippled areas to show the deep centers. This page is free to print for classroom or home use.
