Tree Pencil Drawings
Trees in pencil: an apple tree with apples, a tall pine tree, a tree with curly branches, a weeping willow by a pond, palm trees on the shore, a tree on an island at sunset and an avenue of trees. There are easy outlines for kids and shaded landscapes for those who draw with more confidence.
Sketch the trunk and the shape of the crown with light lines first, then add leaves and shadows with a soft pencil in short strokes.

Questions and answers
What is the easiest tree to draw in pencil?
A pine tree made of triangles or an apple tree with a round crown: both are simple outlines with no shading. Then try the curly tree and the weeping willow.
How do I draw leaves with a pencil?
Do not draw every leaf. Fill the crown with small loops and short strokes and make them denser on one side: this gives the tree shadow and volume.
Which pencil should I use to draw a tree?
Use an HB pencil for the outline, its lines are easy to erase. A soft 2B or 4B works for the bark, shadows and dark leaves.
