Today we offer you to draw a branch of cherry blossom. You can draw a picture or you can make a decor on the wall. You need a pencil in the process of drawing. The level of difficulty is simple. Take your pencil and start working. Good luck!
Branch basis
Draw the basis of a big branch with the help of the wavy lines. The top of the branch is cloven. It gradually splits into two thin parts.
Minor branches
Small branches are attached to big ones on every type of tree. The distance between the flowers is very small due to such structure of the tree. That’s why the cherry blossom symbolizes the clouds in Japan.
Add small twigs to each part of the big branch. All must be of different forms, direction and size. Nature is so talented, that’s why we can’t find absolutely identical plants.
Erase unnecessary lines
As you have noticed, we perform schematically the first stages of drawing. This simplifies the task. Erase the extra lines to get a full picture. Now we’ve got the right shape of Sakura branch.
