BEGINNINGS
Start by drawing lightly so you can erase it later. Begin by drawing a stick figure just to get the pose and size right. The head is tilted back since she is looking up at the flower umbrella. Make the head like an oval for now.
Use three guidelines to help draw the face. One for the eyes halfway across the head. The nose is halfway from the eyes to the chin, The mouth is halfway from the nose to the chin.
Draw a horizontal line to show where the leaf is floating on the water.
OUTLINE THE WINGS.
Outline the wings. The wings have two shapes. The top wing is like a triangle with a bent edge. The bottom wing is like a long letter "U."
DEVELOPING THE FIGURE
Draw around the stick figure to make the body shape. The legs and arms are thin. The knees are a few straight lines. The hand is at an angle and almost square.
CLOTHING
The clothing could be made out of silk so it has flowing lines. Draw the clothing around the figure, then erase the stick figure lines. The sleeve hangs down and curves back. The legs are covered by a skirt, the lines follow the legs on the left side and drape backward on the right side since it is floating in the water.
FACE
Keep the face simple. The forehead dips in at the eyes. The nose is like a triangle. The top lip is like a backward-facing letter "J" laying down. The bottom lip is like the letter "C". Draw the hair with long sweeping lines going over the wings.
DETAIL THE WINGS
Use ovals and circles to add detail to the wings. The circles can go around the edge. Draw the back edge of the wings with a back and forth pattern. Remember to leave the hair.
THE LEAF
The leaf is a straight line at the bottom where it floats in the water and the sides are just some curved lines that meet at points pointing up. The back of the leaf has the stem going up like the back of a chair for her to rest against.
Use curved lines for the ripples in the water.
