How to Draw a Hot Air Balloon
In this drawing lesson, you will learn how to draw a hot air balloon. This tutorial is for kids and beginners.
I am glad to offer you a very interesting and exciting drawing lesson in which you will learn how to draw a hot air balloon.
The hot air balloon is considered the lightest air vehicle. It consists of a large bag, called an envelope, which keeps the air inside, and a basket suspended under the bag, in which the passengers are carried. A heat source is used to heat the air inside the bag. Most often, a propane torch is used as a heat source.
Hot air balloons are used by tourists and outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy flying. Hot air balloons have a large carrying capacity and can travel long distances in a single flight.
The ability to draw a balloon will definitely come in handy if you want to draw this beautiful flying object against the background of the sky or a natural landscape.
