How To Draw Pot Leaves

10 Amazing (and Easy!) Tutorials

Introduction

Whether you like doing pot or not, you've got to admit that pot leaves have a really nice look on them. The structure and design of this leaf is somewhat inspiring. I really enjoy drawing pot leaves, and I do so mostly for the fun of it. In case you're one of the more innocent ones out there, and don't know how a pot leaf looks, or how to draw one, don't worry; I've got you covered.

To draw a pot leaf, you follow two simple steps. First, you draw the backbone of your leaf, which in this case is usually a start shaped pattern or line diagram. Then, you sketch the leaves over those lines, and do so in a somewhat triangular fashion. And there you go! Your pot leaf drawing is ready.
