How to Draw a Hedge
Draw a hedge in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: left side and top.
Step 1: Left side and top
Start low left. Draw small bumps straight up and along the flat top, stopping at the right corner.
Step 2: The right side
From where the top ended, round the corner and draw small bumps straight down, stopping level with the left.
Step 3: The ground
Draw a long straight ground line along the bottom of the hedge, from edge to edge.
Step 4: Leafy rows
Inside the hedge draw 3 rows of 7 hill bumps from edge to edge, spaced out, so it looks leafy.
Step 5: Two sprigs
Start in a dip on the top, left and right. Draw a curved line up, stopping a finger above.
Step 6: Sprig leaves
On each sprig draw 3 small pointed leaves: one on the tip and one on each side.
Step 7: Little flowers
Draw 5 little flowers in the leafy rows, clear of the lines: a small dot, then 5 round petals.
Step 8: Grass
At each end, a little away from the hedge, start on the ground and flick 2 short grass blades up.
Step 9: Pink flowers
Colour the middle dots yellow, then the petals pink around them.
Step 10: Green hedge
Colour the hedge and sprig leaves green, around the flowers. Go over your lines and your hedge is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a hedge, drawn by you.
