How to Draw an Oak Tree

Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below

There are about 450 species of oak trees found throughout the temperate regions of the world. Oak trees produce acorns, a source of food for animals and, in the past, for humans.

The cork used to make wine cork is produced from the bark of the Mediterranean cork oat tree, and Aleppo oak is used to make the ink.

Since time immemorial, this noble plant has appeared in art and symbolism. In Greek mythology, the oak tree was considered sacred to Zeus and in Norse mythology to Thor.

Representing strength and endurance, oak leaves and acorns appear in heraldry, architecture, coins and seals. In 2004, it became the National Tree of the United States of America.

Do you know? There are many trees that are labeled as “oak trees” that are not real oaks. An example is the itchy grass known as “poison oak”.

This plant is so named because of the shape of its leaves.

You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below

1. Start by drawing branching branches. Use curved lines to outline the edges of the trunk. Then draw ā€œVā€ shaped lines between and above them to indicate the edges of the branches. Connect the lines at the top.

2. Draw the base of the stem and roots. Extend the lines of the trunk downwards. Then draw a series of inverted “V” shaped lines to connect the sides of the trunk, so that they meet at points.

3. Draw more branches around and between the first branch. For each branch, extend two curves and join them at the top.

4. Trunk texture. Draw diagonal lines at the base, vertical lines on the trunk, and horizontal lines on the branches.

5. Start drawing the leaves on the top of the tree. Use a series of “U” shaped lines to start the cloud-like tree top.

6. Continue drawing the foliage on the top of the tree by connecting “U” shaped lines.

7. Complete the outline of the tree top. Don’t forget to draw the leaves connecting and between the branches.

8. Tree top texture. Use a series of “U” shaped lines to draw cloud-like circles inside the foliage. Draw another series of “U” shaped lines.

9. In addition to the shape of the leaves, the oak tree can be identified by its fruit – a type of nut known as an acorn. Draw acorns hanging singly or in clusters all over the treetops. For each acorn, first draw a curved shape by duplicating a curve back to itself. This is the cup or lid of the acorn. Then draw a “U” shaped line to form the nut.

10. Color your oak tree. In summer, its leaves are dark green. In the fall, they turn brilliant orange and yellow.
