"Hello there I'm Ralph Papa from papagallery.com and today we are learning how to draw. In this clip I'm going to show you how to draw Mother Nature. I'm going to start off with Mother Nature, just a drawing a nice face, put some eyes in here. Just a line of the nose. Lips and we'll just suggest her eyes like that. And we are going to have long flowing hair coming down like that. And one thing Mother Nature would have is beautiful flowers in her hair. And I'm just going to sort of just twist these flowers around that she's wearing them. Very much natural, we'll put a flower here in the lower part of her hair like that. Now we are going to extend out her neck, come down here and we are going to put a long gown on her. And it's kind of a gown that might be just dragging here, put her feet down here. And over here for her arm, I'm going to have her arm coming up like that, raised up a little bit. And I'm going to have her arm opened up here and she's going to be holding a beautiful butterfly in her hand. The other arm I'm going to sort of have coming back down around the side and with lots of flowers. There's flowers in her belt, flowers here and those beautiful flowers in her hair and long flowing hair. We can give her some shading, we'll give her some dimension here. Just cross hatching that shade there like that, taking my finger and just rubbing that in. And there we've created resemblance of a nice flowing dress to represent Mother Nature when she's outside. And this beautiful butterfly I need to put some little antenna on that butterfly and some spots on his wings. And there we have a drawing of Mother Nature. This has been Ralph Papa and thank you for watching."
