Summarize the following:
First, draw the rounded base of the teardrop shape. Then, draw the point coming up off of the base. Make the lines leading up to the point bend gradually 1 to 2 times, like a wave, so your drawing looks like a flickering flame. The waves should start about halfway up the teardrop shape. Make it about half the size of the first one, and position it so the base is nearly touching the bottom of the first teardrop. Make the second teardrop wavy just like the first one. The second teardrop will give your flame dimension. Later, you can color it a different shade than the first teardrop so it looks like your flame is burning at different intensities like a real flame. Make this one about half the size of the second one, and give it the same wavy shape. Draw it near the bottom of the second teardrop shape so their bases are nearly touching. Color in the smallest teardrop shape with yellow. Then, color in the medium teardrop shape with orange. Finally, color in the biggest teardrop shape with red. You can use colored pencils, markers, or crayons. Removing the pencil outline will make your flame look more realistic. Don’t press down too hard on the eraser or you could smudge the colors. Once you’ve erased all of the pencil marks, your drawing is finished! Add a candle and wick to your flame if you’d like! Just draw a thin, vertical cylinder under the base of the flame (for the candle), and connect the top of the cylinder to the flame with a vertical line (for the wick).
Draw a teardrop shape with a wavy point. Sketch a second teardrop shape inside of the first one. Add a third teardrop shape inside of the second one. Color in the teardrop shapes using red, orange, and yellow. Erase all of the lines you drew in pencil.
