    The best way to learn how to draw anything is to look at reference images while you practice drawing them. A reference image is just a photo of what you want to draw. The more you practice, the easier it will be to draw deer or anything else you want.

Article SummaryX

To draw a christmas tree, start by drawing an isosceles triangle in pencil. At the bottom of the triangle, draw a cylindrical stump. Then, draw 5 curved horizontal lines spaced out evenly along the height of the triangle, going past the edges of the triangle. Add leaves by drawing jagged lines under the 5 curved lines, then draw the strings of lights, ornaments, and a star on top. Finish by tracing in marker and coloring in the leaves and ornaments, then erasing your pencil lines. For another simple way to draw a Christmas tree, keep reading!
