How to Draw a Jackfruit
Draw a jackfruit in 11 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: the big fruit.
Step 1: The big fruit
Right of the middle and low on your paper, draw a big bumpy egg, taller than it is wide.
Tip Jackfruit is the biggest fruit on any tree.
Step 2: The trunk
Left of the fruit, draw 2 trunk lines. Start flared out near the bottom and stop above the fruit.
Step 3: A short stalk
Start on the trunk and draw a short thick stalk over into the top of the fruit.
Step 4: The leafy top
Over the top of the trunk draw a big round cloud of leafy bumps. Keep it clear of the fruit.
Step 5: Leafy hills
From the left edge of the leaves draw a row of hill bumps across. Stop on the right edge.
Step 6: Skin bumps
Scatter 9 little round bumps on the fruit, well apart and away from the edge.
Step 7: Bark lines
On the trunk under the stalk draw 2 short up-and-down bark lines, one high and one low.
Step 8: Ground and grass
Draw a long ground line under the trunk from well left to well right. Add 2 grass blades each side.
Step 9: Light green fruit
Go over your lines, then colour the jackfruit light green.
Step 10: Dark green leaves
Colour the leafy top dark green.
Step 11: Brown trunk
Colour the trunk and the stalk brown, up to the leaves and the fruit. Your jackfruit is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a jackfruit, drawn by you.
