Step 11: Use the big shape on the right side as a guide to draw the butterfly's hind wing. Follow the basic path of the guide but make the shape a bit wavier as you darken the lines.

Step 12: Add the detail inside the monarch butterfly's wing. First draw a long, horizontal line. Pay attention to the oval-like shape. It has a small point on the top. Draw a series of short lines to the right of this shape. Begin drawing short, curved lines near the top of the edge of the wing to close off the top shape of the pattern. Close off the remaining shapes using curved lines. Follow the curve of the hind wing as you close off the shapes.
