How to Draw Planting Seeds

13 steps · Medium · about 10 min

Draw planting seeds in 13 easy steps, about 10 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 seed packet.

Step 1: The seed packet
Right of the middle, draw a tall box. Add a flap line across the top, with a tiny side notch.
Step 2: The stick
From the bottom of the packet, draw a short stick straight down: 2 lines close together, pointed at the bottom.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the packet, draw 2 big egg eyes one eye apart. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes, draw a U smile from eye to eye, and a small oval cheek beside each end.
Step 5: A flower picture
Near the top of the packet, draw a tiny flower: a small circle with 5 little petal bumps round it.
Step 6: The garden bed
Below the packet, draw a long low hill of dirt. Start low left, rise gently, end low right.
Tip Long and low, like a sleeping whale. The stick goes into the dirt.
Step 7: The furrow
Just under the hilltop, draw a long thin band that curves like the hill. This is the furrow.
Step 8: The seeds
Inside the furrow, draw 4 little oval seeds in a row, spaced out evenly.
Step 9: A sprout
On the left, draw a short curved stem from the dirt up, stopping a finger above. Add 2 fat leaves.
Step 10: Ground and grass
Draw a ground line under the hill, nearly edge to edge. Stand a grass tuft at each end.
Step 11: Yellow packet, tan seeds
Colour the packet yellow around the eyes, cheeks and flower, and the stick and seeds tan. Leave the eyes white.
Step 12: Pink petals, green sprout
Colour the cheeks and flower petals pink, leaving the middle white, and the sprout leaves and grass green.
Step 13: Brown hill, dark furrow
Colour the hill brown around the furrow, and the furrow dark brown around the seeds. Your seeds are planted!
