How to draw plants and trees

Can I draw foliage plants and trees with a pencil?

There are many ways to draw trees and the like when you search on the net, but the basic premise is that you can draw a rough sketch to some extent. In the first place, we cannot make tree or plant shapes! There are not many commentary pages for anyone.

If you use a paint software such as Photoshop, you can do some deception, but do you want to be able to draw properly? This time, we will introduce a method for drawing as easily as possible.

Let's start with drawing something as simple as a foliage plant. Why a foliage plant? As you might think, foliage plants are easy to observe because the shape of the leaves is easy to observe. When the leaves can be drawn, it is useful for drawing flowers.


Let's decide GL and HL first before drawing. This work is omitted every time.

Draw a succulent plant "Sansuberia"


Draw a flower pot. Draw a cylinder with a one-point perspective and adjust the details.


Draw the leaves roughly. The point to draw is to sharpen the leaves.


I will draw in detail while considering the overlap. Let's draw while looking at the material.

Draw “Monstera” featuring unique leaves


Draw a flower pot in a cylinder with a one-point perspective like Sansevieria.


Monstera leaves feature heart-shaped leaves, so we will draw the leaves roughly while being aware of the characteristics.


I will draw details. Let's cut the leaves.

Draw “Augusta” with large leaves


Next, I will write a square bowl with two-point perspective.


In general form. It is good to keep imbalance between right and left.


Draw details. When you draw it so that you can see the back side of the leaves, the naturalness will increase.

Make it possible to draw a tree with a pencil (branch)

Trees are made up of leaves, trunks and branches. If you try to draw a tree, you will start from the branches first, but you must be able to draw. Here is a summary of the methods and points for drawing a tree branch quickly without looking at anything.


First, let's decide on HL and GL, which are the basics of Perth. The HL eye measurement is based on the height of the eyes when a person stands, and is considered to be about 1.5M. Let's decide how big the tree will be while considering the distance between HL and GL.


If you double the distance above HL, it will be 3.0M, and if you take 3 times, it will be 4.5M. When you draw a line that will become the center trunk, add branches randomly along the point.

Point when drawing branches


The branch is drawn with a gentle curve toward the center. If the root of the branch comes out from the same place, it becomes unnatural.


When you are done, I will draw it. First from the trunk. The root of the trunk is thicker, and it gets thinner as it gets closer to the branches. Draw thick and make the main branch from the trunk first. Divide roughly into two or three.


Draw fine branches while taking care to make them thinner as they become the tip of the branch. It is better to write branches with lines. At first glance the tree branches seem to be difficult, but it is not difficult to draw the atari, and if you follow the atari, a beautiful branch will be completed. Please refer to those who can not draw well.

Make it possible to draw a tree with a pencil (leaf)


Once the branches are done, the next step is to draw the leaves. The trick is to understand that the leaves are made of several large and small chunks. First, draw a large circle and divide the lump of leaves into several pieces. Please try to put the size and position randomly.

Point when drawing leaves


When drawing a tree, be careful not to lean to the right or left. If you want to make a tree with a sloping trunk, be careful not to lean to the overall balance. Even if the trunk is tilted, it is only necessary to be balanced.


Let's actually draw it when you get it. When drawing a leaf, do not draw it as Atari, but use a special touch. It's like drawing a circle randomly on the right or left.


The point is to place a touch on the lower part of the leaf lump to create a three-dimensional effect. However, be careful not to add too much, as it will turn black.

Make it possible to draw various kinds of trees


Based on the above basics, you can draw various types of trees. The point is to decide the shape to some extent at the stage of Atari. If you make a large lump and then think about the lump of leaves, it will be easier to draw when you write.

Some trees may use other expression methods instead of the previous touch. Let's draw the characteristics of the leaves of each tree.

Place trees along the perspective

If you draw HL and set VP, it is not difficult to place trees. However, as you go further, the height will become lower and the distance between trees will become narrower. If you want to arrange them at regular intervals, use the division method or the growth method.

The further you go, the simpler the touch. The things in front are in front of you, so you can see the leaves one by one. Let's draw carefully.
