Steps To Draw A Lemon
Take a quick look at the demo in the image below, and follow the detailed step-by-step instructions to draw a lemon.
Step 1: Draw an Oval
We begin by sketching an oval shape as shown in the image above. We are sketching a half-cut lemon and a full lemon.
Step 2: Draw Half Lemon
Now, outline another oval inside the one from Step 1 and draw a curved line on the right side touching the oval to depict the half lemon as illustrated in the drawing above.
Step 3: Outline Full Lemon
Next, to complete the full lemon, draw a curved line extending from the side of the half lemon.
Step 4: Complete Full Lemon
Likewise, draw the remaining curved lines to complete the outline of the full lemon behind the half lemon.
Step 5: Draw Half Segment
Once more, sketch small triangular segments inside the half lemon following the pattern shown in the drawing above.
Step 6: Complete Segment
Finally, complete the remaining half segment inside the lemon. Now, we’ve successfully drawn a juicy lemon. Let’s proceed to the coloring step.
