Drawing a simple tree in black and white is a straightforward process. Follow these steps: Start by drawing a vertical line in the center of the paper. This line will serve as the trunk of the tree. From the top of the trunk, draw two diagonal lines that slant outwards in a V shape. These lines will be the main branches of the tree. Starting from the ends of the main branches, draw smaller branches that extend outward. Make sure to vary the length and direction of these branches to create a natural-looking tree. Once you have drawn the branches, draw small lines or dashes along the branches to represent the smaller twigs and leaves. To complete the tree, add details such as knots or rough textures to the trunk and branches. Finally, use a black marker or pen to trace over your pencil lines, creating a bold black outline. Erase any remaining pencil marks.
