Let’s Draw a Forest

In this video I explain my process for drawing trees, bushes, and underbrush, each with multiple levels of detail. You can draw them quick and dirty, or slow and pretty!

Watch on YouTube for hyperlinked shortcuts:

1:30 Trees
6:25 Bushes
9:52 Underbrush
11:42 The leaf pattern

I hope you find some part of this video helpful. Please, let me know what you’d like to see next!
