Today, I’m going to show you how to draw super simple leaves and berries, step-by-step.
I want to walk you through the most underrated part of drawing flowers – the leaves! We’re going to go through a couple of different ways you can add leaves to your compositions, as well as some little buds and berries along the way. This is the ultimate way you can tie all of our flowers together!
If you haven’t seen some of my other videos on how to draw the main flower first, be sure to check out my floral series, starting with a Peony!
During the tutorial, you’ll learn:
✔️How to draw basic leaf shapes
✔️How to use varying shapes to add interest to your composition
✔️3 ways to build out your leaf drawings
✔️How to draw a vine with little buds, berries and more
✔️How to bring all the elements together
✔️AND SO MUCH MORE!

I’ve been trying to download the “leaves and berries” worksheets but the Florals one keeps showing up instead. I really enjoy learning how to draw (at age 72!) and your videos are super easy to follow along with. It’s just what I’ve been wanting for quite some time so thank you!
Hi Linda, the leaves and berries worksheets are pages 26-28 of the Floral Illustration pack. 😊
