Draw Lines in the Body

Draw Charming Eyes with Smiley Face

In the last step, draw a small circle for the charming eyes, and in the eyes draw another small circle for the pupils and color it black. Now draw two antennae at the top of the head and then draw the smiley face of the bee as in the image above.
Coloring a Bee
After the drawing of a honey bee is completed we move forward with coloring the honey bee. For coloring, we had chosen some basic colors. As the honey bee is naturally yellow and black in color, we fill yellow and black color while coloring it. You can fill color according to our wish too.
