I add the tertiary veins that are branching from the secondary veins they are barely visible.ĭon’t draw all the small elements our task is to create just a hint at the details. I add the secondary veins to all of the primary veins of the leaf. Some veins are longer and thicker they usually go towards the lobes. I start with the central vein, the midrib. It’s time to draw the pattern of the secondary veins that are going from the primary veins to the sides. I erase all the subsidiary lines, leaving just the contours of the maple leaf. They usually have just one pronounced lobe each (less often, they have two). I refine the shapes of the lower, additional parts of the leaf. Now I draw the lobes of the fifth segment. I refine the part of the leaf that is on the left side. The next two segments are relatively small. Some lobes are sharper and longer the diversity is necessary when it comes to drawing natural forms. … and then adding two more lobes slightly below.ĭon’t be afraid to deviate from the initial framework it is our reference and not a rigid restrictor. I draw the lobes of the central part of the leaf, starting with three of them…
I add two notched elements on the bottom part of the leaf. I draw two more shapes, following the same logic. A maple leaf has symmetrical features, but it always has some deviations or imperfections. The sides of each shape are not equal, and this is done on purpose. The only difference is that the side shapes are joint with the central construction. I create two more shapes as we did in the previous step. Then I create a shape that resembles an irregular rhombus it connects the base of the leaf, its central tip, and two points in the upper part of the form. I add two points on each side of the midrib. To design a maple leaf shape, we have to start with a framework. The core line is also a reference for the central vein (the midrib). I draw six directional lines of the leaf’s veins. I mark the top and bottom borders of the leaf. With an HB pencil, I draw the core line of the leaf and the extension for its petiole (a leaf’s stalk). To complete this tutorial, you'll need the following equipment: We’ll observe four examples of natural sophistication: a maple leaf, an oak leaf, a fig leaf, and a four-leaf clover.

If you're wondering how to deal with those intricate shapes, this tutorial is just for you! Some leaves have a simple shape that is so easy to draw some demonstrate a very complex outline. A leaf is a beautiful symbol of nature and alternation of seasons.
