How to Draw a Lightning Bolt

Readers of Easydrawingart.com often asked us to show how to draw a lightning bolt. We decided to make this instruction very simple and cartoony. With the help of six simple stages, which you will see below, you can depict not only a lightning bolt but also the Flash logo.

In this instruction, there will be exclusively straight lines that can be depicted either with a ruler or without it. So prepare your favorite art supplies and let’s get down to the instruction on how to draw a lightning bolt.

Step 1

To get started, depict the top of the lightning bolt with two straight lines, as did the artists of Easydrawingart.com in the sketch below.

Step 2

As we said, the tutorial on how to draw a lightning bolt will consist only of straight lines. So, with a zigzag line, draw the bottom.

Step 3

One side of the lightning bolt is complete, let’s now take care of the second side. To do this, make three lines in the form of a zigzag, as did the artists of Easydrawingart.com.

Step 4

In this stage, we will actually finish drawing the lightning bolt. Finish creating the right side and depict a horizontal line at the very top.

Step 5

So, make your lightning bolt drawing clear and beautiful. To achieve this goal, you can trace it with a dark pencil or ink. If you did everything correctly, then your lightning bolt drawing should look like that sketched by the artists of Easydrawingart.com in the sketch below.

Step 6

With the help of your favorite painting tools (colored pencils, paints or even felt-tip pens) paint the lightning bolt either blue or yellow, as in the example from the artists of Easydrawingart.com.
