How to Draw A Carrot Step by Step

Step by Step Guide

The carrot is a very simply vegetable to draw. It should only take you a few minutes to draw a carrot. However, if you are not sure how you should approach your carrot drawing, you can take your time, and follow a more detailed and step by step approach. I personally do the step by step one, just because it makes the drawing look more accurate and natural.

To draw a carrot, you start with a couple of curves and work out the body. After that, you do the leaves on top of it. And just to add a bit of depth, draw some lines and maybe a sharper outline. There you go, the carrot drawing is ready.

Start with a curve

Draw a tilted ‘J’ shaped curve on the left side of your paper.

Draw the body

Using a similar curve, draw the other side and complete the carrot’s body.

Add a leaf

Draw a leaf on top of the carrot

Add another leaf

Add one more leaf stalk on top of the carrot

And another

Let us do one more of these leaves.

Another tiny leaf

Draw a small leaf at the back.

One more small leaf

Draw another leaf stalk at the back side.

Keep going

Add a few more leaves.

Almost done with the top side

Draw the last couple of leaves sticking out from the back.

Add some light details

Use a light pencil to draw lines across the carrot’s body horizontally.

Add some depth

Use a dark pencil to give the drawing a sharp look.

Time to color

Your drawing is done. Now it is time to give the carrot a nice coat of orange color.
