Today, drawing123.com will guide you how to easily draw a pansy with simple steps.
Let’s get started!

Step 1. Draw the Core
Start in the upper center of your drawing area by drawing a small, simple circle. This will serve as the center of the flower.

Step 2. Inner Petal Outlines
Attach three small, curved shapes to the circle from the previous step. Place two smaller, lobed shapes above the circle, extending to the left and right, like small ears. Add a third, single, larger lobed shape attached below the circle, pointing downwards.

Step 3. Outer Lower Petals
Using the shapes from the previous step as a guide, draw two much larger, overlapping, curved shapes around them. These forms should be lobed, starting near the upper-left of the small “ears” and joining near the bottom of the lower lobe. These represent the larger, face-like lower petals.

Step 4. Top Petals
Complete the flower’s structure by adding two large, overlapping, fan-like shapes at the very top. These should attach to the upper curves of the two lower-side petals. Your complete flower head, or pansy “face,” is now outlined.

Step 5. Add the Stem
From the absolute center-bottom of the flower head, draw a single, relatively thick, slightly curved vertical line downward to form the stem. The line should be solid and extend toward the bottom of the page.

Step 6. Skeleton of the Leaves
At the bottom of the stem, near the base, add two short, branching line-skeletons. Draw one branching line extending diagonally upwards to the left from the stem, and a matching one to the right. These are the veins for the leaf bases.

Step 7. Full Leaves and Final Details
Create complete leaves around the line-skeletons from the previous step. Draw two rounded, irregularly notched leaf shapes that encompass the existing vein-lines. Ensure they attach neatly to the base of the stem. The entire pansy plant sketch is now complete in outline.

Step 8. Color and Finish
Fill the two innermost “ear” lobes and the bottom lobe with dark purple, the larger, face-like lower-side petals with a medium blue, the two large, top-rear petals with a lighter violet-purple. Add a small dot of bright orange to the very center circle. Fill the leaves with a sage green and the stem with a slightly darker moss green.


Step 1: Start with the Center
Begin by drawing the central detail of the flower. This shape is a jagged, somewhat star-like form with five points, which will be the very core of the pansy.

Step 2: Add Side Petals
Next, from the center points on the left and right, draw two large, rounded, overlapping shapes. These will be the two primary side petals of the pansy face.

Step 3: Top and Bottom Petals
Complete the flower’s general structure by adding two more petals. Draw a large, simple dome shape at the very top. Then, draw a larger, broader, and more rounded shape below the core to create the large bottom petal. The flower structure now has five main petals.

Step 4: Right Spiky Detail
Move inside the right petal. Starting from the central jagged core, draw a series of interconnected, sharp, V-shaped lines to form a complex spiky pattern inside this petal.

Step 5: Left Spiky Detail
Repeat the previous step inside the left petal. Draw a similar pattern of complex, spiky lines, originating from the left side of the core and filling the inner area of the left petal.

Step 6: Bottom Petal Spiky and Wavy Detail
Finally, add details to the large bottom petal. Draw a smaller spiky V-pattern pointing downwards directly below the central core. Below that, draw a larger, loose, wavy-lined dome shape, filling much of the lower bottom petal. The outline drawing is now complete.

Step 7: Full Coloring and Final Touches
Fill all five main petal areas with golden yellow. The spiky details inside the left and right petals should be filled with black. The small spiky pattern and the larger wavy pattern on the bottom petal should be filled with black. Fill the very central core shape with bright yellow.


Step 1: Draw the Center
Begin by drawing a small, simple circle in the center of your canvas.

Step 2: Form the First Petal
Draw a large, teardrop-shaped petal extending from the right side of the central circle. This petal should connect back to the top and bottom edges of the circle.

Step 3: Add the Outer Lower Petals
Add two more large petals by drawing large, rounded shapes extending outwards. One should be added to the bottom left and another to the top left, creating a partial, radiating fan shape around the central circle and the first petal.

Step 4: Define the Inward-Facing Petals
Now draw the outlines for the two prominent, irregular-edged petals on the left side, which face inwards toward the center. These complete the five-petal structure of the pansy.

Step 5: Detail the Stamen
Draw small, radial lines extending outward from the central circle, representing the stamen structure.

Step 6: Define Inner Petal Boundaries
Draw inner, curved boundary lines within each of the five large petals, starting from the central stamen area and mapping the distinct regions that will hold color later.

Step 7: Add the First Leaf
Extend a pointed leaf shape with a central vein line and smaller side veins from the left side of the flower head.

Step 8: Add the Second Leaf
Continuing from the previous step, add a second, similar leaf shape extending from the upper right area of the flower.

Step 9: Final Color Application
Fill the central circle with vibrant yellow. The radiating stamen lines and all outlines should be black. Fill the inner regions of the five petals (defined in Step 6) with a rich, deep purple. Fill the outer margins of the petals (outside the curves from Step 6) with a lighter, lavender-purple. Apply a solid, medium green color to both leaves and their vein structures.


Step 1: Start with the flower center.
Draw a small open circle with two curved lines meeting at the top like a little hat, and a curved horizontal line through the middle

Step 2: Define the inner petals.
Add three rounded, heart-like lobes around the center, with one below and two to the side, forming the central inner cluster

Step 3: Create the outer petals.
Illustrate the larger outer petals: two curved, overlapping shapes above, and one larger, broader lobe below the inner set, defining the pansy’s full face

Step 4: Draw the flower stem.
Extend two vertical, parallel lines down from the bottom of the flower head for the stem

Step 5: Sketch the initial leaves.
Draw two simple, curved leaf outlines pointing upwards from the base of the stem

Step 6: Refine the leaf shapes.
Detail the two leaves with jagged, scalloped edges, giving them their characteristic serrated appearance

Step 7: Illustrate the pot rim.
Create the lip or rim of the pot with a horizontal, oval-like band encompassing the base of the stem

Step 8: Complete the flower pot.
Draw the rest of the flower pot, adding the main conical body with a flat bottom below the rim, finishing the structure

Step 9: Color the final illustration.
For the final step, color the inner petal face with dark maroon-brown and a bright yellow center. The outer petals should be deep velvet red. Fill the leaves and stem with vibrant green, and use a burnt orange or terracotta color for the pot


Step 1: Start with the center structure.
Draw a tiny heart shape at the very top. To the left and right of it, add two slightly larger, curved petal-like forms that flare out, creating a small three-part central cluster

Step 2: Add the inner, wavy-edged petals.
From the base of the initial central cluster, draw three larger, irregular, wavy-edged petal shapes. One points downwards like a lobe, and two point slightly up and outwards to the sides

Step 3: Detail the central connection.
Draw small, delicate, wavy lines to connect and slightly fill the gaps between the three larger wavy-edged inner petals, refining the center

Step 4: Draw the large front petals.
Draw two substantial, rounded, smooth-edged petal shapes that wrap around the bottom of the central cluster. These should be larger than the previous petals, forming the main face of the pansy

Step 5: Complete the outer petal structure.
Add two more large, rounded petals to the top of the flower, behind the initial upper-middle cluster. These top petals overlap slightly, completing the pansy’s five-petal flower shape

Step 6: Draw the main flower stem.
Below the large bottom petals, extend two parallel, vertical lines downwards to form the flower’s stem

Step 7: Add lower leaf stems.
From near the base of the main stem, draw two smaller stems, one pointing diagonally left and the other right, as bases for leaves

Step 8: Define the leaf shapes.
Along each of the smaller stems, draw a prominent leaf with scalloped, serrated edges, typical of a pansy leaf

Step 9: Apply the final colors.
Color the top petals a warm, golden yellow. The lower petals should be a lighter peach-yellow, with the wavy central patterns colored dark brown, and the very center a vibrant green-yellow. The stem and leaves are colored with a natural, muted green.
