Initially, draw a pine trunk. We pay attention to the fact that from below it is wider, and closer to the top it narrows, after which they finally disappear. Circles indicate the places of future leaves.
We depict a tree from a distance, so it will not work to see the needles and leaves. In coniferous trees, the vegetation resembles green clouds, which is why we draw them.
Now you need to draw thin branches of a tree, and make clouds of pine more fluffy.
It remains only to add shadows and we are ready to draw a pine tree with a pencil.
I propose to depict a pine tree in this way:
Drawing steps:
1) Start drawing with a large triangle, which is isosceles and divided in the center by a line (tree trunk):
2) We begin to draw the contours on the left side:
3) Now draw the right side and pine trunk:
4) After that, you need to erase the extra construction lines:
5) everything is ready, it remains only to paint.
The video that I provided just below shows how you can quickly and easily draw a pine tree.
All you need to draw is a blank sheet of paper and a pencil. So let's get started.
Naturally, in order for the pine tree to look more natural, it is better to first draw the background, then proceed to the actual drawing. So, after the background is drawn, let's start sketching the pine tree:
From the very bottom (ground) we draw a tree trunk, tapering upwards. At the very top, you need to draw clumsy twigs, you can also draw broken branches to make the pine tree seem more natural.
We designate the root part of the tree, paint on the knots and proceed to sketching the crown.
The crown is drawn like this: we draw caps using a curved line on all the branches that are at the very top. Here is the pine tree.
And here is the video tutorial. Enjoy watching.
The simplest drawing scheme, perhaps, which is difficult to divide into stages.
The bottom line is that we start drawing from the trunk of the tree, then we roughly indicate the location of the branches. The peculiarity of our pine will be that you can leave the schematic drawing of greenery with clouds, and only erase everything superfluous.
Let's finish the branches - the connection of the clouds with the trunk.
It will turn out a little cartoony, but it is similar to a real tree.
We color in the desired shades of green and brown.
It is worth noting that the cedar pine looks a little different. She has a lot of needles, which are evenly distributed, without bare branches.
So here is another scheme.
Let's draw a pine tree. To do this, we need a blank piece of paper, a pencil and a proofreader. I will highlight several stages, here they are:
First stage. Let's draw an image of a pine tree. The image will consist of a trunk, as well as the outline of the branches. We get this drawing:
Second phase. Since it is not possible to see needles on branches from afar, we draw pine vegetation very similar to clouds, we get:
Third stage. We begin to draw thin branches of a tree, we also draw in detail the pine vegetation.
Fourth stage. It is the final one, our task is to put shadows on the drawing to make it even more beautiful.
To draw a pine tree correctly, you still need to have a good idea of \u200b\u200bthis tree. I saw pine trees, both large and small, a lot. But, believe me, I have never met a pine tree that is absolutely symmetrical in the arrangement of branches. Why? Because the branches that are on the sunny side of the tree are always more powerful, strong and sprawling.
Therefore, I would suggest starting drawing with auxiliary lines.
First, draw a straight line, it can be slightly tilted; and draw a triangle to it. He will help us in the end to draw a pine crown, and so we will mark the sunny side of our tree.
Next, with a pencil, we make additional lines next to the first line - this is how we sketch the pine trunk. And then we outline several large branches in this triangle, which move away from the trunk and bend.
Now let's draw the branches. They will fill the triangle with us - here will be the main part of the crown. And on the other hand, you can draw smaller and thinner branches. It will be more natural if on the non-sunny side we draw one or two knots without needles at all.
The needles do not have to be drawn individually - just make a few strokes with a pencil in different directions, as shown in the figure.
That's all. Now you can paint the pine tree with paints, or you can leave it in a pencil.
It may seem that trees are one of the easiest objects to draw. If you have never painted, the task may be too easy...
... or too literal:
We do not see anything similar to real objects in any of the drawings. The first is just a tree symbol, and the second suggests the definition of a tree. Your job as an artist is to paint what we see, not what we know. tree drawing What a great exercise to develop this skill!
In this lesson I will show you how to draw oak, pine and weeping willow trees simple and realistic method.
What you will need:
- Several sheets of paper;
- Hard pencil (HB);
- Medium soft pencil (2B);
- Soft pencil (5V or less);
- Sharpener.
Usually a pair of hard pencils (HB) is enough, but such a set is not universal for all drawings. To get dark shadows, we need soft pencils. No need to choose expensive ones - I bought the most common ones, and they do their job perfectly. If you are in doubt about whether you need to draw, then a set of pencils of different degrees of hardness will not be a big loss from the budget, and drawing is much easier!
You will also need a sharpener. A blunt tip leaves lighter strokes and does not match the expected effect. Constantly monitor the sharpness of the pencils and remember that soft pencils wear out faster!
Regarding paper: it can be anything. Ordinary paper for printers is also suitable. You should not, however, draw on a whole sheet - the smaller the drawing, the less detail you will need to add. In reality, my drawings are about 9 cm high.
Soft pencils help to darken the shadows, which is not the case with hard pencils. Hard pencils are not as dark, even if you press hard on them!
- DRAW OAK
Step 1
The brain works in an unusual way: first it grasps the big picture, and then pays attention to the details. Therefore, you should not start drawing with details - first you need to create a base.
Draw the generalized shape of the tree with a few faint strokes and dots. To do this, use a hard (HB) pencil, do not put pressure on it. These strokes will not be part of the finished image - they will not be visible in the finished drawing; the camera and scanner don't recognize them (I used Photoshop so you can see them!).
Step 2
Draw the trunk. Do not forget - the bottom part should expand downwards. The larger the tree, the shorter and thicker its trunk.
Step 3
Draw branches at the top of the trunk.
Continue drawing the branches, gradually lowering the line as they length.
Step 4
Add other branches to each branch (the longer, the lower they go). Strokes should be light.
Step 5
With short, sharp strokes draw the shape of the crown of the tree. It doesn't have to be straight and neat.
Step 6
In the same way, draw small "clouds" of leaves inside the crown. Leave some areas empty so that parts of the branches are visible - this structure looks more interesting.
Step 7
Add thickness to the branches where they are not covered by leaves.
Step 8
Before you start applying shadows, determine which part of the tree will be bright and which parts will be shadowed. You can define them with simple hatching.
Step 9
Take a soft (2B) pencil (make sure it's sharp) and create some texture on the stem. Remember to also leave white areas - this is important for the texture.
Step 10
Take soft pencils (2B and 5B) and darken the barrel according to the original light distribution. Don't be afraid to press down on the soft pencil to get the shadow you need, but don't overdo it either! The fewer black areas in the picture, the more impressive it looks.
Step 11
Take a hard pencil and sketch out the outlines of the leaves. Draw them in relaxed circles, quickly, with sharp movements.
Step 12
Each branch also has its own small crown (these are the "clouds" that you drew). You need to darken them in the same way as if they were separate trees.
First take a soft (2B) pencil to draw darker circles on the darkened side. At first, do not press too hard so that you can correct the mistakes.
When you are sure that you have correctly defined the sides of the darkening, add shadows and depth to them, and also finish the transition between the light and dark parts.
Step 13
Take a soft (2B) pencil to add some loose leaves all over the crown and "small crowns". This will create the effect of additional, barely visible branches.
Step 14
Take the softest pencil and add some dark accents in the darkest places. The crown will be more contrasting. Also make sure that all the leaves are darker than the "sky" background - the leaves cannot be transparent! You can once again go over the lightest areas with a hard pencil.
- DRAWING A PINE
Step 1
Again, we start drawing with the general outline of the tree. Take a hard pencil and draw light lines.
Step 2
Draw branches. Don't try to be precise, just sketch them.
Step 3
As in the case of oak, draw "clouds" on the branches. This time they should be narrower and even more uneven. Leave more space between them.
Step 4
Draw the outline of the trunk - long and narrow.
Step 5
Take a soft (2B) pencil to darken the barrel...
…and then a softer pencil to highlight the darkest side.
Step 6
This time, you do not need to fill in the “clouds” with circles; fill them in instead with harsh and chaotic strokes.
Step 7
Take a soft (2B) pencil to draw needles along the outline of the "clouds". They should be thin and sharp.
Step 8
Draw the branches and darken them with two soft pencils.
Step 9
Draw even more needles inside the "clouds" with a soft (2B) pencil).
Step 10
Take the softest pencil to darken the "clouds". If you want, you can just darken them completely - usually evergreen trees themselves are dark.
Step 11
Finally, take the softest pencil to draw completely dark "clouds" between the branches.
- DRAWING A WEEPPING WILLOW
Step 1
We will draw in the same way. Let's draw the general outline of the willow - something like a fountain.
Step 2
Draw the outline of the trunk.
Step 3
Draw branches in the direction from the trunk ...
... descending as the length.
Step 4
Draw the contours of the "clouds"; this time they will look more like curtains.
Step 5
Fill in the trunk and branches with hatching with a soft (2B) pencil.
Step 6
Darken the trunk and branches with the softest pencil.
Step 7
Take a soft (2B) pencil and draw ribbon-like lines along the "curtains". They should form an arc at the very beginning.
Step 8
Darken the "curtains" with darker and wider swirling lines in between.
Step 9
Use your softest pencil to draw the dark "curtains" on the other dark side of the tree. You can also add leaves to the branches to give them more detail.
Your trees are ready!
How could you make sure draw trees- an easy task; you just need to pass in their appearance, not their definition. However, this is just the beginning of learning - if you want to become a true professional in drawing trees Take a notepad with you when you go for a walk. Watch the trees you pass by and try to make quick sketches of them. This way you can develop intuitive drawing. If you prefer to stay at home, look at the pictures of trees on the Internet.
Translation of an article from design.tutsplus.com.
On New Year's Eve, you want to decorate your house and create a festive mood. A good decor element for postcards and posters can be an image of a cone that you create with your own hands or with your child. This lesson will tell you how to draw a cone in different ways.
We draw in stages
In order to create beautiful pictures, you need to study the subject of drawing well. Before starting the lesson, look at various images on the Internet. After that, return to our master class, where we will tell you how to draw a bump in stages.
Stage 1
We mark the branches with several lines.
Stage 2
Draw a vertical oval in the middle.
Stage 3
We give volume to future branches. We use oblique hatching to depict scales.
Stage 4
We draw thick needles on each paw of the branch.
Stage 5
We erase the auxiliary lines. In place of oblique hatching, we make roundings so that it seems as if the scales protrude along the edges.
Stage 6
Colorize the resulting drawing. We fill each needle with green, outline the contours for volume with dark green. We paint over the bump with brown. Black marks the places that are most shaded.
Picture in pencil
For a novice artist, it is important to learn how to convey the structure of the depicted object, without being distracted by colors and surrounding elements. Therefore, next we will show how to draw bumps with a pencil in order to get a correct and clear sketch. All you need is a white canvas, a sharpened pencil, an eraser, and your inspiration.
So, for starters, let's make a markup on the sheet where our cones will be. Let one be slightly tilted to complicate the composition. The shape of the markup is rectangular with slightly rounded corners at the bottom.
Further, within the marked areas, draw a center line. Symmetrically on both sides, draw the lines of the base of the scales, as shown in the figure. Somewhere you can already outline their shape. Draw the surface of the support from below with strokes.
Along the contour lines, we begin to draw each scale. Note that they are denser at the bottom than at the top. Try to depict volume with hatching. The lower part of the scales should be darker, as less light falls on it.
Brightly circle the desired lines, erase the auxiliary ones with an eraser. If desired, you can highlight the details with a gel pen.
Pine cone
Great, you have learned how to depict cones in great detail. Now consider the difference between pine and spruce. Both of these skills will come in handy in different situations. Let's start with how to draw a pine cone.
We start by getting the natural form. To do this, draw a three-dimensional cone. With the help of arcs, we round the lower and upper parts of the figure. We get a ball elongated upward.
We begin to draw the contours around the edges. We are trying to add some asymmetry that exists in nature. Then we fill in the lower part, moving towards the upper and expanding the gaps between the scales. After we erase the side contour with an eraser.
Let's start coloring. We will need black, dark green and brown pencils. First we fill the space between the scales, add shadows with green, and paint over the remaining voids with brown. We erase the extra sketchy details, if desired, outline with a thin black felt-tip pen or pen.
fir cone
Spruce cones differ from pine cones in a more elongated shape and less prominent scales. Let's see how it will look in the drawing and consider how to draw a spruce cone as part of our lesson.
For clarity, we even took a real fir cone to keep all sizes and proportions. We draw a vertical line - the basis of the picture. Below we draw a sharpening, as shown in the example.
We begin to depict three scales from the bottom up. We try to keep the length and symmetry.
In the upper part it is necessary to show some narrowing of the diameter of the cone. With the help of dense hatching, we show the shadows, outline the contours. Erase extra lines.
We teach a child
The instruction will help parents set up the child for the lesson and teach him to accurately convey the size, shape and color of the future bump. Before you draw a bump to a child, take him to the park and show him natural fruits. To make it not boring for a child to draw a simple cone, we will draw a composition on a branch of a Christmas tree and paint it with the brightest colors.
Let's draw two ovals and lines of future branches. Since it is still difficult for a child to perform small movements with a pen, we will show the relief of the cones with a simple oblique hatching.
Let's draw sprawling paws of the Christmas tree. Additional lines show the volume of branches. Color the needles with a green felt-tip pen.
With a brown felt-tip pen, paint over the bumps and the branch. Black highlight the contours. A dark green felt-tip pen will help show the volume of coniferous branches.
Instruction
Start with the trunk, which, on pine trees growing in the woods or in the open, is straight and fairly thin. Draw a very narrow and long rectangle in the middle of the landscape sheet, tapering upwards. In a field pine, the trunk can bifurcate in the first quarter from the ground.
Start drawing branches that grow near the pine almost perpendicular to the trunk. However, you should not depict the branches in straight lines - it looks unnatural. Draw broken, intricately curved lines and do not forget to divide a large branch into several smaller ones as it moves away from the trunk. Remember that a pine grown in a forest is very different from a field pine - the latter has a dense crown starting one and a half to two meters from the ground, and in a forest pine, most of the trunk is devoid of branches.
Place branches not only on the sides of the trunk, but also in front and behind. The branches located directly in front of the trunk will seem the shortest and at the same time the most dense, and the branches behind can not be drawn in detail, limited to shading with a pencil. Also notice how the pine branches get shorter and thinner as you get closer to the top of the tree.
Draw pine needles. With confident strokes of a pencil, walk along the ends of the branches, make the tree “fluffy”. Branches that are far from the viewer do not need to be drawn in too much detail - the needles can simply be indicated by shading. In an old tree, the lower branches may well be dry and bare or broken.
Add shadows. Try to place them correctly in one direction, focusing on an imaginary light source. With the help of deeper shading on the sides of the trunk, you can show its cylindrical shape. Shadows from the branches will add expressiveness to the drawing.

When creating cartoon drawings, the artist is faced with the need to draw nature in such a way that it looks quite natural and at the same time does not stand out from the general plan. You can draw the bark of a tree using Photoshop, even if you do not fully own all the tools.
You will need
- - Photoshop program;
- - photo of a tree.
Instruction
Create a new document in Photoshop. Choose a standard round brush (size 40 px, opacity 40%) and paint the trunk using many long strokes. At the same time, change the pressure on the pen to get a little “banding”. If necessary, make branches, while the strokes should go a little inside the trunk.
On the side where the sun will be, make a few strokes with a lighter brush (of the same shade), and on the opposite side, darken the trunk a little. At the very edge of the dark side, you can draw the darkest strokes - be guided by photographs of real trees.
Create a new layer for the fibers. Using an opaque round brush (size 8 px), paint the fibers of the tree in the form of a rhombic network. In this case, the darkest color used previously is needed. Choose the optimal transparency with the blend mode Soft Light.
On the same layer, using a 4 px brush with a transparency of 60%, fill each cell of the network with small hatching. Try to have the shading in the neighboring fibers in different directions. You can add several cracks between the fibers.

Learn to draw a pine tree step by step with colored STABILO Trio A-Z felt-tip pens.
Felt-tip pens with a triangular grip zone and a thin tip. For right-handers and left-handers.
The ergonomic shape of the grip zone forms the habit of holding the writing instrument correctly and prevents hand fatigue even during prolonged use. The case of felt-tip pens is decorated with the Latin alphabet and funny drawings, they will help in learning to draw and write.
STABILO Trio A-Z felt-tip pens are holders of the German quality mark for toys, which confirms their highest quality and safety for health.
Line thickness 0.7 mm. Ventilated cap. Water-based ink is non-toxic, odorless, easy to wash from any type of fabric and washed from hands.
Let's make a drawing of a pine tree with STABILO felt-tip pens on drawing paper.
With a brown felt-tip pen, we outline the pine trunk with two vertical lines converging at the top into one line.
With the same brown felt-tip pen above the middle of the height of the trunk, draw horizontal branches. From above, the branches decrease in length and form a crown rounding.
With a brown felt-tip pen, add small branches closer to the edge. All ends of the branches are directed upwards. We shade the trunk.
We shade the needles with short strokes from the branches up in green. We form separate groups of needles in the crown.
We pass the upper needles with light green strokes. We form a crown pattern in the form of a semicircle.
Shade the lower part of the pine trunk with a brown felt-tip pen. Then we make adjustments to the drawing of the trunk and branches with a black felt-tip pen.
