Introduction

Summer is coming, and we are all ready for it. Whether or not you are a fan of the heat, summer is a welcome break from the stress and bustle of the school year. Although it is great to have a more peaceful schedule, many students find themselves with a lot of free time. That time can be filled with drawing! It is certainly fun to spend time making art, but it is even more fun to make art that reflects your experiences. So, here are some summer drawing ideas for the summery weather.

Ideas

One option is to decide cute summery clothing. Try drawing a swimsuit, sun dress, or simply something light. A prompt like this will challenge you to maybe even invent something! For this reason, your creative juices will be flowing. If you like fashion, this prompt will be extra fun. In the end,  drawing summer clothing is a great option of something to create during the summer.

Another idea of something summery you could draw is a beach or ocean scene. Over the summer, almost everybody goes swimming. So, this will be very on-theme! Also, painting water can be very fun. The color of varies throughout! A picture like that can be tried at many angles, also. For instance, a bird's eye view of a crowded beach could be amazing. Overall, drawing a beach or ocean definitely gives an artist a lot of freedom, and is a fun option for something summery you can make.

 A third possible thing to draw is ice cream. This might seem basic, but drawing ice cream is an interesting way to practice texture and design. Things like chocolate sauce and the cone are fairly difficult, actually. Additionally, solid topics are fun to design or think about. Items like gummy bears, mini Oreos, and other candies are fun to use! All in all, ice cream is a cool (get it?) possibility for a summer-themed drawing.

Finally, creating a picture with some summery flowers is a great idea. Flowers are fun to draw, yet satisfyingly difficult. Spacing and perspective are especially tricky with flowers, so if those are topics you want to work on, this is a fantastic option. Also, flowers typically allow for vast palettes. You do not even need to be realistic with them; flowers are colorful normally! Most likely, nobody will be able to tell if you spice things up a bit. When it comes to drawing flowers, you can find some pretty summer ones to use as reference, or try working without. With all of there options and details, summer flowers are an interesting option for something summery to draw.

Another Way To Get Inspired

When you are making your art, it often is inspiring to go outside while you work. Since it is almost summer, this idea is very easy to execute. Simply sitting somewhere in your yard can be helpful! If you want to go somewhere while you work, the Winchester town has many picnic tables around it. By the library, next to D'agostino's, and at the Lincoln are a few nice locations. Truly, going outside is a very simple but successful way to inspire your summery art.
