For this lesson, you want to start with a 9 cm circle. Draw a line through the center. Extend the compass and place your point on the diameter at the circumference and swing the arc to the right and left. Place your compass on the top point and swing arc to right and left. Where the arch cross, you may draw a line through your center to make four divisions of the circle. Adjust your compass to the radius of the circle and pace compass on two adjacent points and swing arcs between and once again draw a line from the intersecting arcs and the center. Repeat for all angles in the hemisphere until you've completed 16 divisions.

Label the lines 0-8 on either side from the top. Now you may begin drawing your water lily. You could stop at the pencil drawing, but adding some color with Lyra Colored Pencils brought this lesson to life.
