Hi everyone! Here are a few different drawings of trees I recently worked on! I hope this tutorial video helps out in some way. It's a bit of a longer video, but drawing trees like this is something I really enjoy and I wanted to share the process with you. Be sure to let me know what you think. And also let me know if you have any suggestions for future drawing videos. Thank you so much for the amazing support! Hope you're having an awesome day. :) -Chris

On the last video of yours Chris, I wanted to know where I was going wrong with drawing trees. Then presto, here you are showing us how. My grandmother was the expert at drawing and painting trees, she was born in 1888 from London. Now I hope I can draw a tree just like her. Thank you so much for the help and huge hugs from Australia.

whatever you draw simple or not it always looks amazing

Watching this yet again, Chris. It remains the best tree drawing tutorial on youtube. Well done.

Thank you so much for the tips, they really helped me. I love drawing landscapes and backgrounds and trees are a BIG part of that. Looking forward to your next tutorial, thanks!

I love how excited you are about trees.

It's all about to have a relaxed hand... 😆✌️

This particular video got me into drawing! Five years ago and now it’s been recommended to me WOW

I really like this video. I've been using tutorials and working from reference photos, and I am so excited to be able to draw without doing that! This is what I am working towards. Thank you Chris

This is amazing! I am just learning how to draw and I am so fascinated by it. It relaxes me and opens a whole new world of expressiveness. Thank you!

Man your trees are incredible! You've definitely inspired me to keep trying to get better. Your leaf advice was a life saver 👍 thanks

daaym. by minute and a half mark it already looks like something out of an old Disney movie. great work.

Beautiful. I love your technique to add the "idea" of detail. I often get too hung up on the details, and need to learn this technique.

I loved your idea of how to draw the leaves, thanks!

the leaves were so satisfying thank you. I will try this tomorrow

I was looking at how to draw different types of trees and found this very useful. Thank you so much for creating this so now my trees will look a lot less awkward and planned.

Brilliant video, I went out took some pictures of an oak tree, really looked at it and used the photos to organically let the picture grow. I haven’t drawn properly in over 20 years and I spent four hours drawing it and I wish I could show you the results, I’m so pleased. You communicate really clearly. Thank you blood. ✌🏾✊🏾🤜🏾🤛🏾

Love the video and your drawings are beautiful! My suggestion for future video[s]: Do them in real time, maybe where you explain your technique with a little more detail, for beginners like myself who have very little technique. These time lapse videos are good for seeing your overall process, but it would help to see exactly what you're doing with your hand to achieve different effects. Thanks!

Can’t wait to try these trees. I’m new to drawing and I enjoy landscape, especially trees. I loved how how some of your tips were very vague but had an impact such as using pictures as references/inspiration not to be exact. And then when you went over the leaves. I spend SO much time on the leaves and it looks forced. Your voice is soothing too. Glad I found your videos.

This was my first try and . . . . . Have to say I was not expecting the result I got. Your suggestions are really useful, thanks to you I drew really nice trees on the very first attempt and I'm an absolute beginner in drawing. Thank you

i love the calm music while drawing really fits in with the drawing about nature and trees. Great video as always and it really helps so thanks for showing us.

Just discovered this video last night, and this is one of the most helpful videos I’ve ever had for drawings in general! Thank you so much!

This really got me going with getting back into art. Thank you. I appreciate your talent and calm and instructional way of teaching. All the best

Felt really stuck with drawing trees and then watched just the first 55 seconds of you laying down the roots (pun intended) of that first tree, and I already felt that I knew where to go cheers

thank you very much, this tutorial really helped me a lot in drawing trees for my architectural sketches.

I made the aspen twice - once into a birthday card for my son along with a quote about forest bathing. Love your drawing lessons!

Thanks for the tutorial. Made a drawing of the first tree. Found it tricky shading the trunk but got the hang of it eventually. Also made so many branches that when I added leaves it ended up a formless mess, no breathing room. Managed to fix it by adding an additional darker shade of leaves. Using the darker leaves to create forms in all the densely packed leaves. Happy with the result.

Awesome drawing, very helpful! I have my troubles with natural randomness although it creates the picture magically on the paper all by itself. I don‘t know whether you made a video on drawing rocks and stone and boulders etc. before, but this would also be very appreciated. Thank you and keep on drawing! :)

When drawing trees you break the rule of consistent smooth lines.😂 I like it.👍

You are amazing! Thank you! I spent probably an hour doing just one tree and it doesn't look as good as yours, but it still looks good. Thanks for posting!

Years from now everything will have come to leveled up technological modification esp of arts, but this outstanding idea of doing the art (manually) by hand is going to stay forever. It's just so amazing to do things in details by hand alone:) Your work is awesome!

Wow! They look like real trees... even better than that. Love your simple and detailed video of drawing basic things. Nice!!!!

Those are gorgeous! You made it look so easy. I never even thought about the bark of the tree or what kind of tree for that matter. Thank you for this lesson. Amazing!!

I’m new to your channel and love it! As a newly retired Elementary Art teacher, now I’m hoping to do more Art for me, (rather than lesson plans and samples!) A student asked me early in my teaching how to draw a tree…I broke it down and called it a “Y tree” basically you add lots of Y’s and W’s etc then add details and shading! I had two fellow teachers, that had been my students, that both remembered and use the “Y tree” method to this day!!

Thank you so much, LethalChris. You have inspired me to start drawing again and show my drawings on my own channel. Love your technique.

Hi Chris, I just wanted to thank you for this video and so many of your others. I am a rank amateur who just started sketching a month ago (I'm an evolutionary biologist and historian of science by trade). I've always told people that I can't draw, and there is no point in my even trying, because my brain does not work that way. It took 57 years, but I realized how wrong I was. Now I am learning to sketch for the love of it, and as means of pure relaxation. Your videos have been extraordinarily helpful on that front.

i love drawing trees i seem to be deeply connected with trees i do put doors windows and climbing vines in them even staircases and such .... thank you for these examples great work

Beautiful tecnic and results. I allways thought the most difficult is to create branches that come to ones view or go towards the fuge point. Thanks for the video I'll try to apply these advices.
