Here’s how to draw a Shamrock for St. Patrick’s Day. For an extra special touch, try adding gold lines with a metallic marker.
To celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with more than a quick drawing, then try taking your shamrock drawing to a new level with some paints and metallic marker. The combination of the flat green color and shiny metallic lines are a favorite of mine. Plus, it’s just too easy to draw these, and add some easy shadows while you are at it.
