Flower Gradient

The Final Product...

The Inspiration...
My mind

This is really fun, really simple and really easy.

What you'll need:
Colored Pencils or Crayons
Eraser
Markers

This art page consists of two parts...
The background and the flower and the clouds (if you can see them)

So for the gradient...
Take your colored pencil or crayon and do some shading going from one corner to the next. You don't have to go corner to corner... I like to though. You don't have to cover the hold page, I would actually recommend not shading the whole page. My first color was blue.
 And then you can take your next color, and starting a little from the corner (or wherever you started) and continue shading going a little past where you ended the first color. My second color was purple.

 And then a third color... (mine was red)
 And then a fourth, mine was orange...
 And then a fifth color, mine was yellow...
 And then more colors... however many want. Remembering to start a little away from where you started the last color and going farther down the page then you did with the last color. This creates the gradient effect.





 And now for the decoration of the gradient (a.k.a. the flower)
To achieve this you are going to want to  take your eraser and erase you design.
 And then if you would like you could color in your design (I did with some markers).
 But I erased some clouds and didn't color those in.
That is the final product. I hope this helped. Make sure to make it your own with your own colors and designs.
