#HowToDraw #DrawingLesson #Trees
I appreciate that this is a lesson on UNDERSTANDING trees, because so many drawing tutorials will just be like "copy how I draw a tree" but you don't necessarily learn from those. this is so very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your videos on drawing, the first few especially ("How to draw #1" etc.). I'm 36 years old, I haven't dared trying to sketch and draw since I was a child. I've always had a tortured relationship with artistic expression of any kind, and your spot on, slow, and gentle approach has helped me take courage. Thank you for that.
Arborist here.
Something to consider: trees grow according to their environment. They grow taller or lengthen their branches in protected areas, such as when they're surrounded by buildings or other trees where wind or snow loads don't threaten to break their limbs. In unprotected areas, it's the opposite. You can read something about wind patterns that way because sometimes a tree will only have longer limbs on one side while the other side will be short and stubby, or else the entire tree will be very stout with thick connections between the trunk and limbs because they get battered by the weather and wind.
Something else: the crotches of the branch unions aren't always V shaped. Often they'll have more of a curve. Most have a branch collar, so they'll have a donut shape where the limb grows from the parent stem. Most every single tree has some deadwood which typically curls up on the ends. The longer the tree has been dead, the more bark will slough off. The limbs will become brittle. The sun can, but does not always, bleach the heartwood once the bark falls away, so it's possible to have a dead tree that is white or off-white. Trees in a stand will attempt to grow away from one another to get maximum light. In a tight forest, trees might grow straight, thin and tall, but may not send out as many lateral limbs lower in the canopy because light simply doesn't reach the forest floor in great enough amounts.
If you glance through a tree nursery's catalogue (J. Frank Schmidt for example), sometimes they'll feature a silhouette to indicate the tree's growth habit at maturity. If there's anyone on this planet that can appreciate the shapes of trees, it's an artist. There's so much variety, it seems almost endless.
Just some facts to inform your art. I hope it helps someone.
Thanks for the lesson!
Thanks for such a detailed comment and information regarding trees. Love it! :)
you're a legenddd dude trees are so cool
I always wanted to draw but did not know how to do it. Yesterday (3-29-21) I found your channel and started to understand how to draw. I will be 63 years old in two weeks and for the first time feel good about drawing something. You have been a blessing. I have tears in my eyes writing this comment. You are so patient. You explain things so clearly and calmly. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Greetings from NYC.
What a lovely comment. Good luck with your creative journey!
Lol, I can't believe I've always made the "fan" mistake! Yes, trees are 3 dimensional so branches don't just go up or sideways. And that's why I love your videos. You point out "obvious" things that beginners can totally miss. Thanks again for the help.
For years I've been horrible at drawing trees. They look simple to draw but whoever I attempted my drawings were just way off. Something was missing. Thanks for the video.
No problem, hope it was helpful in some way!
Same i could just never draw trees until now, like my saplings were fine but trees nope.
I needed this SO much! It was one of the hardest objects of drawing for me! You are a hero of the art! More people should be like you!
Hahaha yea I had no idea how to draw tree before
Hands is typing.....
Same when I was having a project I panicked
Same my tree looked like this before :🌳
Same here!!!!
I love trees and it’s difficult to find a video showing a trees growth without feeling too rigid. I appreciate your style and explanation.
Awesome, glad it was helpful :)

I love your videos. This one specially! I never thought of that sphere thing while drawing trees, I always thought of them as fans. Also I never thought that the main trunk is tapering off.. I always just "end" it midway awkwardly and have branches come out of it. Absolutely wonderful how you break things down for us. Thanks!!
I started a couple of hours ago and now after many tutorials I have quite a bunch of drawings in my new sketchbook already :) Thank you!!
Thank you so much! I was just sitting in my room and had the idea to start learning how to draw. I propably didnt draw something in since my childhood . I just watched your video and i was so fascinated how you just put the pencil on the paper and made such an amazing tree. I really was in the flow with the pencil and the paper. It was the first time I decided to just draw a tree for myself without anyone wanting me to do it. I always thought i was horrible at drawing. I did draw for over an hour and i am so amazed by the results of my first tree. I will keep learning how to draw as ahobby for myself. A big thank you. This video were my inspiration to finally start learning to draw. I will keep this hobby up hopefully for my lifetime. Thanks to you
Useful tips on Trees! Tell us about Rocks, Cliffs, Mountains also like this
Will see what I can do. More coming soon.
To draw mountains just make a huge upside down hole in the floor

@@airconditioningunit9777 Thanks for the advice, my piece turned out so good they took down the Mona Lisa to hang mine up.
You are the true master and a very underrated RUclipsr. Thank you for existing, the world needs you!
i would like to see this continue,..
this series is really helpful.
im just rewatching this again and again.
ok i guess time to move on, to other objects.
may be more shape splitting and stuffs.
man this is fun
Drawing is a lot fun :)
@@SchaeferArt i agree!!😍😁😀😜😍😁😃😜😄😄

Man. I tried to paint a tree today then went back and looked at a bunch of your tree paintings. Whole new level of appreciation for your work.
Haha much appreciated! Yeah man trees are tough, especially if they're just branches and no leaves. But really either way they can be tough. I need to do more videos on them.
Hey I know I’m late to the party but I just wanted to thank you 🙏, I’ve been practicing backgrounds and one thing I really struggled with was trees. I’m so happy with what I’ve learned you have really made my day thanks
Trees are my favorite, thank you for this!
Thank you too :) Glad to hear
Thank you so much for the video. I never thought I would have so much fun drawing trees of all things. Your videos have been very helpful, I started a few days ago, started with the how to draw series and now I'm here. Thank you so much u won't believe just how proud it makes me to draw again.
You are so welcome!
this is so helpful :D
It’s not one of those videos where it’s like “foLlOW tHeSe STePs tO dRaW TrEEs!!1!” It’s more like “here’s the basic and fundamentals of how a tree *works* ”
Thanks for this amazing video :D
I'm honestly amazed. You just taught a thirteen year old girl to draw a tree. And I NEVER had a better instruction video ON ANYTHING WITH ART that was so clear to me. ( I have been sketching for a little longer than a year now ). Just.... Respect. I always had trouble doing this and it is absolutely amazing that an adult can explain a thirteen year old girl ( THAT ISN"T EVEN ENGLISH ) how to draw a tree. I am definitely checking out your account and im definitely great full for this video. I really hope to become an animator or an (manga) artist in the future. This video is so useful that I feel like it won't take much longer until I can draw backgrounds. I am very thankful for your guidence and I will DEFINITELY use this in the future!
Wow thank you, so glad to hear :)
@@SchaeferArt you're welcome! keep the great work up!
Wowww! I never saw anything like this. Thank you!! I love trees and have always wanted to draw them but didn't know how. I love your conceptual method of helping us understand the fundamentals first before we doit Thank you so much!! I just love this! 😊😊😊😊
Very nice video. I can tell you respect trees. I love trees. The first one you drew I thought that tree has personality. And then you mention that they all have individual personalities. It's good to hear from others who appreciate trees, there is 3 dimensional aspect to drawing them. Now that it's winter here, I can take advantage that they have leaves on and see them up and close and really see their branches. Thank you for a pleasantly informative video about drawing trees. I'm going to be more aware of their shapes as I hug them!
What did you do to that Pencil O_O
Sharpened with a razor blade :P
Thank you, for taking the time to teach drawing techniques. I have been looking for something to draw and beginning with trees is a good idea as any.
Wow, this is actually pretty good, it actually improved my sketching skills
Please, please do a TREE SERIES... it'll make the world a better place! ❤❤❤
Will keep it in mind, would like to at some point :)
saw like 10 videos on trees , first person to recognise them as 3d.
Thanks man , awsome teaching.
Just got back into drawing always loved trees, good starting point with your video.
There was useful information in here I won't deny that, but it felt a little redundant after the first 3 or 4 minutes, and you really down played the real problem with drawing trees, leaves , if I avoid evergreens I can draw all the trees I want in the fall and winter, I can observe bare branches and make sense of them, leaves are the amorphous mass that people struggle with.
Thanks for the feedback. I will try to make a more concise and information filled one in the future.
Please Do more 🌳 i love drawing them. I love your classes. Thank you
amazing video I never even thought about making the branches smaller and smaller to create a sharp look at the end of the branch good video
Glad to hear :) Have fun!
Great explanation! Finally ACTUAL steps and tips and not sure music playing while someone draws! Thank you!
Have you made that full series of videos yet about drawing trees? i would very much like to watch them
I have not yet actually but I've thought about it a lot. I started writing an e-book about it a few months ago, so that would be my guide for the videos. Unfortunately I have bigger projects on my plate right now, but I do want to really create this series because I've searched for other books about drawing trees and they just don't talk about the things I've come to realize about trees.
@@SchaeferArt that would be great. Ive had a hard time finding info
Really good video Schaef! If you get time could do you a cloud lesson? I'm struggling with colours, shading and highlights and really need a method to follow that works. Thanks for the videos and interaction with viewers. Keep up the awesome work! Andy.
I could possibly do that. Yesterday would have been perfect for me to get some good photos of clouds, now it's sunny and clear today lol. Clouds are definitely tough.
This is AN AMAZING video...Finally, understand why my trees looked lopsided...not anymore!! Thank you, thank you!!
I was self taught art and I’m pretty proud of myself 😍
That's awesome, I"m proud of you too
Than you
Came to learn how to draw a tree
Stayed because of the soothing voice (and because it's well explained)
Awesome, glad to hear :)
This video makes drawing trees so easy! Thankyou
Thank you for the verbal lesson. I'm tired of copying other drawings. This is really going to help me.
Glad it was helpful!
Love how you showed different types gave me some ideas for what to do thanks bro
I love your videos!! Even though I painted a huge tree on my wall, I still watched this video. I can always learn somethig new.
Thank you for the demo, they really help more especially we wu are the self taught artists. Utube is doing a great job for me.
Thank you so much man I struggled with trees for so long until now
This is such a useful video. You also help us understand how to draw trees rather than a "lifehack". Although this is the case, do you have a video on how to draw leaves on a tree? It would be even better, thanks
As drawing since i was rll young and finding this guy in 2021 made me so calm bout drawing things
Mostly trees
I’m sticking with Loli-pop tree’s... 🍭🌳
Go for it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I see a pun in there. Sooo I love. I might Draw Something Like that now thanks
That's what I'm trying to draw!😵
He is the best teacher i have ever had!
Oh my gosh, I just want to say thank youuuuu, your video helped me a lot. I've been having a hard time sketching trees, I tried watching videos but out of all of them yours was the besttttttt. THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤❤❤❤
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much for this videos! Been wanting to draw since a long time and i just started now. Really appreciate it❤
My pleasure 😊
There was a drawing i thought of that had smth to do with a forest and i literally couldnt get any of the trees right but this really helped! Now they actually look like trees i mean theyre arent great but its a start tysm!
Please do more about trees and foliage!! Thanks
Very helpful yet again. It’s lovely to sit quietly, and study and sketch trees.
This was so helpful between the sketches and your explanations. Thanks ☺
I love the way you explained it thank you for some one like Mr who finds it hard to follow instructions this was so easy thank you
thank you for this video. it is very use full to me . i think i am improved in my drawing . thankyou ..
Glad to hear that
This is like asmr and I could fall asleep to this
Just watch it first and put it on repeat ;)
Check out Alan Lee's pencil drawings. He is a master and his trees are amazing.
Absolutely agree. I think have some Lord of the Rings concept art books with his drawings and paintings in them. Will have to look through them again! Thanks for the reminder.
I have been trying to draw trees and this helped a lot ❤
Glad to hear that
woo more drawing videos!
Did u ever do the next step of how to show foliage and values? I am in Anchorage a lot of birch spruce & cottonwood
I just can’t find your other tree videos can you link them I really want to see your tree content I love 🌲
THANK YOU! IM PROUD OF MY ART. NOW! TYSM
Thank you so much for this video! it really helped me a lot!
I'm so glad!
the best way to draw trees is just draw trees.
Brandon Schaefer.
+Bingo Dopedod exactly lol
*dick treeee*
I would like to learn how to make a travel sketchbook; specifically how to simplify the scene and where to start. I am a beginner and have enjoyed your videos.
You are easy to listen to. A Good explanation given.
I appreciate that!
This is so helpful thank you!! Even though I've been drawing for years I'm still a beginner so this helped a lot.
Glad I could help!
I always have trouble with the branches.
Same
Samee
the main trunk is narrowing by the amount of the branch size. so the size of the trunk above the branch + branch size = the size of the trunk below the branch
Trees are good at math and fractals
Brent Taylor it's just a general rule of making trees look realistic xD
+Comrade Morlac good point!
Thanks Comrade....is that for all trees? what about other trees?
SchaeferArt h
Im doing art for marks so thanks for the tips Schaerferart
Thank you for all your great ideas, I love it
would like to see this series continue
Any topics in particular?
@@SchaeferArt
1) how to sketch two objects with a proportion,
when each one r in different point perspectives, like one forward and one backward but different points in horizon.
i cant guess the size of the object with the distance between.
2) i am able to sketch something pretty acceptable from real life, ( if i draw from seeing that ),
but if i draw something similar to that on my own ( imagining ), i am not able to like get it look as good.
its some what off,
like the picture in the mind is really good, but when i draw that, i feel its ok but in the end it looks bad.
something like proportion or lighting r wayy off making the picture totally different from what im thinking.
Thanks for the tips.
Great video!
I'm very new to drawing and my big concern is how to draw the clumps of leaves. I seem to have trouble making it look more 3d. Is it too advanced to draw this and I should start with more basic and simple things to draw
supersymmetry!!! I like your instructional stuff like this a lot!
After a mushroom trip I came here...I aprecciate a lot more the wole plant realm and I want to honour it with my drawing. Tryna recreate that feeling of perfect being and symmetey
Awesome haha
Thanks! I’m trying to learn drawing since recently and your videos are really helpful (don’t know if it’s clear, I’m French haha)
Nice work brother
this help me so much because i have to do my homework ❤❤❤❤❤
I know it's a little off topic but your fingers are so beautiful
WHAT???🤔😕🤔😕
Ahh! Thats where i always go wrong xD Thanks for the well-made vidoe!
Thank you for sharing your gift with us! I love to draw trees too.
Did you release video series of drawing trees yet?
Not yet! :( But I've thought very recently about revisiting it. I've been planning videos for the next few weeks and months.
Try drawing a tree by moonlight, with our Look6 sketching light. Would you like to try one for a video?
COOL Man !! Carlson's Guide ... = Awesome ! Peace .
For sure!
Thank you for these tutorials
Wow, yet another great video!!
My difficulty with drawing trees are the leaves. What technique do you use to make a tree look "leafy" without drawing every single leaf? Thanks, Brandon.
helped me becamed a better drawer thanks please make more how to draw videos keep it up
Thank you, I will. GLad to hear that :)
wow very nice , 9/10 , lot of your video are actualy this good
Glad you like them!
out of topic but i love your hands.....
Off topic: when I'm done painting a pic with acrylic.....what should I use to protect the painting? Thanks in advance..... =)
Some type of varnish. I suggest Gamvar.
make more sketching lessons! i just love your sketching lessons there AWESOME! thank you for the lessons i have learned a lot :)
Thank you! Will do!
Thank you) i will wait😉
thanks for the tutorial, can you do further tutorial on drawing the leaves?
Possibly one day soon :)
@@SchaeferArt thank you, looking forward to it :D
Thank you so much. This helps so much.🙏
I heard you say you were making a series on trees
Lmao groot is thanking you right now
Thanks! ❤
His hands are so pretty
Very helpful - I wish though that we would not say that "to get good at drawing X, you just need to go and draw X" because if that were "just" the case then I am confident none of us would be here watching this video. Theory matters :)
Any idea about how to draw leaves in these type of drawings?
