Today we will draw not just a leaf, but the whole tree. We will learn to draw a maple tree.

How to draw a maple tree

Maple is the symbol of Canada. It's like the 51th American state that helped to take the territory away from French, English and Eskimos. They placed the maple leaf on the reversed Polish flag and the immigrants who live in Canada proclaimed their own independency, invented mounted police and started to watch the borders days and nights. Since then the maple is considered to be a sacred animal in Canada. In other countries nobody cares about it as they love to eat meat.

Canadian economy is completely based on maple. They make maple syrup, maple vodka and glue.

Let me tell you more:

  • Most of our furniture is made from maple trees.
  • Magic sticks are made from maple too. Even Harry Porter had one of those.
  • The leaves of this tree look like human's hands. That's why it is considered that people after death turn into maple.
  • It gives us a lot of honey.
