Greetings everyone how are you all doing today I'm happy to participate in this contest that @benton3 organized so today I will be sharing with you all how I draw a beautiful tortoise so let's get started as I show you the steps.

Drawing materials

HB pencil
Eraser
sharpener
A4 white paper

Step 1

First I started drawing out the head of the turtle and then curved it before proceeding to the body.

Ste 2

Now I added the body of the tortoise and also the both front and back legs as you can see in the image and also added the tail.

Step 3

Here I added the eyes of the tortoise and then designed the back which is the carapace after that I shaded the hole drawing again so that it would be bold.

Step 4

So now is another step of painting I bring out my colored pencils as you can see in the image and then start painting it starting from the carapace.

Step 5

It's the final step where I completed the whole drawing as you can see how the tortoise looks so beautiful this drawing takes 45 minutes for me to round up everything so my dear friends I would appreciate your wonderful comments.

So about tortoises normally when I was still a kid there was a story my friends told me about tortoises saying that tortoise has brains than other animals hearing about tortoises and wisdom in folklore I will say that tortoises are often associated with wisdom and longevity in various cultures and folklore and this is due to their slow and steady nature and their ability to live for many years.

And tortoise is known for their resilience, patience, and determination In some traditions, the tortoise symbolizes stability, endurance, and protection and It's also seen as a symbol of creation, strength, and transformation as well so in conclusion to this is that the tortoise is revered for its wisdom and ability to navigate life's challenges with perseverance and grace.

Thanks for reading my post I'm inviting @m-fdo, @bela90, and @joymm to participate in this contest.
