In this class, you’ll learn how to draw realistic trees with ink pens.

Trees can feel hard to draw. Drawing them in a permanent medium like pen? That can seem even trickier. This class focuses on how observing trees and focusing on the dark and light areas can simplify the process of drawing them. It’s all about how sketching 3D trees in ink can become simple and intuitive.

You’ll learn:

Easy pen shading and drawing techniques.
How to observe tree growth patterns and textures.
Why sketching in pencil first can build confidence in the shapes and outlines of your drawing.
How to layer shading and textures in ink.
How to draw foliage and tree bark.

By the end of this class you’ll have two completed pen drawings of two trees: one with a bushy canopy, and one with a tangle of branches.

I have plenty of experience drawing trees throughout my time crafting personalized illustrations for private clients, working for music labels and publishing houses and more (not to mention spending wayyy too much time drawing on TikTok!) Trees are fun to draw, but also are a great way to gain confidence in ink drawing fundamentals such as shading, and creating textures.

This class is meant for artists who may just be getting into ink drawing, or those who might find drawing organic shapes like trees difficult — especially without a reference photo. (For artists brand new to ink drawing, check out my “Ink Drawing 101” class here.)

By learning how to build your ink drawing through layers of outlines, details and shading, you’ll get a grounding in intuitive pen drawing techniques as well as crash course in drawing some of the worlds most beautiful plants.

Drawing trees is a perfect way to hone your ink drawing skills.

I’ll see you in class!
