How to Draw a Crown of a Different Shape
Here is a method for drawing a crown that, while having a different shape compared to the first, maintains simplicity in its execution. This crown has a more ornate and traditional silhouette with rounded peaks and a bejeweled appearance.
Despite the intricate look, the process is streamlined into seven straightforward steps. The method begins with a simple base line and progresses by adding each peak and jewel one by one, ensuring clarity and ease for young artists.
Crown Drawing for Kindergarten
This last alternative method for drawing a crown simplifies the process by removing the gem details, making it perfectly suited for a kindergarten audience. The crown shape is reminiscent of the first method, but with fewer steps—only seven in total.
This technique starts with a basic horizontal line for stability, then adds simple upward peaks to shape the crown. Each subsequent step involves adding another easy element, such as the orbs on the tips and the band across the bottom, which ensures that the drawing remains straightforward and achievable for young children.
