Create your own gift card - Butterfly & Pointillism

Learn how to draw with coloured pencils and discover this accessible and great art technique.


The main subject of the gift card is a stylised butterfly, which means a simplified drawing of butterfly using basic geometrical shapes.



To fill in some of the geometrical shapes we will take inspiration from the art movement of Pointillism, which is also known as Neo-impressionism and uses dots that are placed next to each other to create drawings and paintings.
