How to Draw a Windmill
I have prepared for you a tutorial on how to draw a windmill in nine easy steps. Start this lesson and get useful skills.
Now you will learn how to draw a windmill. An exciting new lesson awaits you. In the picture, you see a windmill in which the main mechanism does work due to wind energy.
The mill has a high tower and four wide blades, which are set in motion by the force of the wind. For a long time, such a mill was used for grinding flour, collecting water, processing seeds, and for other purposes. Usually, such mills were installed in the area where there were strong winds. Currently, windmills are not used, as other mechanisms have appeared that perform such work more efficiently.
The image of a windmill can often be seen in paintings. In this drawing, you see a simple windmill that any novice artist can easily draw. There is a tower and four blades, which are called sails. All these elements you can easily repeat.
