Easy Palm Tree Drawing: Simple Step by Step Directions

How to Draw a Great Looking Palm Tree for Kids and Beginners - Step 1

1. Begin by drawing two long, curved lines, parallel to one another. Make sure the lines are a bit closer together at the top than at the bottom. These lines form the trunk of the palm tree.

Drawing Step 2

2. Just above the trunk, draw five curved lines going in different directions. The lines will meet above the trunk, forming a shape like a droopy five-pointed star. These lines are the beginning of the palm tree's leaves, or fronds.

Drawing Step 3

3. Begin to outline some of the leaves. For the first leaf, draw a curved line from the middle of the star shape to the tip of one curved line. Then, do the same on the opposite side of the same curved line. You will have enclosed a rounded shape that is pointed on each end. Repeat this process to enclose another leaf.

Drawing Step 4

4. Continue to to outline leaves by drawing curved lines from the base to the tip of the original lines.

Drawing Step 5

5. In this step, you will draw a leaf from a different angle. On your remaining curved line, enclose a shape by drawing a nearly straight line from the base to the tip. Then, draw a few more leaves in profile, using a curved line and a nearly straight line for each. Erase guide lines as needed.

Drawing Step 6

6. Add detail to the leaves. Using short lines, enclose a few small triangle shapes along the edges of each leaf.

Drawing Step 7

7. Draw three small circles at the point where the leaves meet, called the crown of the tree. These circles form coconuts, the fruit of the palm tree.
