About This Article
Article Summary X
To draw a maple leaf, start by drawing a square on a sheet of paper. Then, draw a vertical line through the middle of the square to make the stem of your leaf. Next, draw 6 V shapes along the stem, which will be the ribs of your maple leaf. Draw an upside-down V shape at the top of the stem, then draw a flattened-out W shape at the bottom of the leaf. Now, draw 4 U shapes in between the ribs on the leaf, and connect these shapes with zig-zagged lines. Outline your maple leaf in a marker or pen and add small ridges to each line to make the leaf look more realistic. Finally, erase all of the pencil lines you drew.
