step 1 of 8

I didn`t use any photo reference of any kind for my "man and his huge flower" work.

1. Carefully drew a perfect circle using a small soft brush.
2. Added a realistic body to the head.
(Tip - try to make it look lollipop like)

step 2 of 8

1. add arms and legs giving great thought to the pose and the situation of the man.
2. draw the flower head and stem, make stem slightly bent (everyone knows flowers dont grow dead straight)
3. add center of sun by drawing another perfect circle
(Tip - stick to finishing the flower if you dont feel confident enough to start on the sun right away)

step 3 of 8

1. draw the center of the flower, this time not using a perfect circle as previous, you may want to experiment with this.
2. Adding leaves is tricky I prefer to think of them as wings, it produces much more realism.

step 4 of 8

Ok we are nearly there, the work is looking fantastic but there`s something odd about it......Thats right the light source needs more exposure.....we add rays to the sun to complete our great work.
