  • Question

    How do I draw an orange maple leaf?

    Community Answer

    It is just like the red and green maple leaf, but color it orange or whatever color you want the maple leaf to be.

  • Question

    How can I draw realistic drawings better?

    Community Answer

    Keep practicing the same realistic drawing again and again. Soon enough, you will get it!!

  • Question

    Can I do it in pen, or is that harder?

    Community Answer

    You can draw in pen. It's probably harder, because once you make a mistake you can't erase it. If you use pen, you can use whiteout for mistakes.

  • Question

    How do I not suck at drawing?

    Community Answer

    Just continue to practice. We've all got to start somewhere, even if that somewhere isn't where we want to be.

  • Question

    What kind of pencils are required to draw pictures like this?

    Community Answer

    Any kind of pencil works. I used a 2b, because that's what I prefer.

  • Question

    Do I need a pencil sharpener?

    Community Answer

    Your pencil will need to be sharp to get the details, so if it is not sharp already, yes, you'll need a sharpener.

  • Question

    Can you add a tutorial that doesn't involve rubbing out? I need to be able to draw a maple leaf on a computer for school.

    Community Answer

    Draw it just the same, but instead of rubbing it out for shading, use a different, darker color.

  • Question

    I don't think I'm drawing the curve right. Should it be a slight curve or a significant curve?

    Community Answer

    It just needs to be a slight upwards curve on the bottom of the leaf body.

  • Question

    Can the maple leaf be different colors?

    Community Answer

    You can color in your maple leaf whatever color you like; the reason it says "red" maple leaf is because it is meant to be maple leaf in fall, whereas the "green" maple leaf is meant to be a maple leaf in spring/summer.

  • Question

    Are all of the curves necessary?

    Craftsmart

    No, this is just a suggestion. Draw your leaves with as many or as few curves as you would like!

About This Article

Article Summary X

To draw a maple leaf, start by drawing a square on a sheet of paper. Then, draw a vertical line through the middle of the square to make the stem of your leaf. Next, draw 6 V shapes along the stem, which will be the ribs of your maple leaf. Draw an upside-down V shape at the top of the stem, then draw a flattened-out W shape at the bottom of the leaf. Now, draw 4 U shapes in between the ribs on the leaf, and connect these shapes with zig-zagged lines. Outline your maple leaf in a marker or pen and add small ridges to each line to make the leaf look more realistic. Finally, erase all of the pencil lines you drew.
