Farm lesson 12: sunflowers
Three sunflowers by the fence, 11 by 17 pixels each: a tall stem, big leaves and a round head.
This sprite is wide. It's easier to draw on a computer, or with your phone turned sideways.
Step 1
This step also removes a few pixels. Use the eraser where the guide fades a pixel out.
