Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Color the Base with G060

Start by applying G060 to the entire background, creating a soft green base. This color sets a fresh and vibrant foundation for your groovy flower pattern.

Step 1 - Color the Base

Step 2: Draw Groovy Flowers with R9

Use R9 to draw simple flower shapes. For a true groovy vibe, only draw the outlines of the flowers without filling them in. The open design adds a playful, retro look, reminiscent of 70s-style patterns.

Step 3: Add Flower Pistils with White Acrylic Pen

Draw small circles in the center of each flower using a white acrylic pen. These bright pistils add a cute detail and enhance the contrast against the bold red outlines.

Step 4: Draw Smaller Flowers with R9

Using R9 again, add smaller flowers throughout the pattern. An easy technique is to place 5 dots in a circle, connecting them to create a simple flower shape. These smaller elements help balance the design and make the pattern more dynamic.
