Updated: Dec 6, 2023

Many people are afraid of insects that can stand up for themselves. But there are insects that, despite the ability to protect themselves, symbolize hard work and the ability to work in a team.

I'm talking about bees. The bee is an interesting object to draw. Let's dedicate this tutorial to drawing a bee with a pencil step-by-step.

How to draw a bee with a pencil step-by-step tutorial.

Step 1. Outline the body, head, and wings of the bee with basic shapes.

First, outline the axis of the middle of the drawing and draw three circles/ovals, the largest of which will become the bee's abdomen. Denote the legs, wings, and head.

The bee, due to increased shagginess, gets dirty in pollen and further stains all the flowers on which it sits for nectar. Let's draw the "fur coat" of the bee with short dynamic strokes.

Step 4. Hatching the bee's body, eyes, and wings.

With a soft pencil, add volume to the paws and body, and highlight the eyes. Let's show the shaded areas with a hard pencil.

In the last step of our bee drawing tutorial, we will show a part of the flower, on which the bee landed for nectar.
