6. Finish the outline of the fourth leaf, using a series of curved lines to sketch its serrated edges. Then, begin drawing a bunch of bananas hanging from the tree. Enclose many overlapping, elongated shapes with rounded ends. The shapes should in turn form a half-circle shape.

8. Connect the bunch of bananas to the tree using a pair of parallel curved lines, erasing as necessary. Then, draw a few more leaves in the background. Again, extend pairs of curved lines that meet at points to form the leaf veins. Then, use a series of curved lines to outline the edges of the leaves.

Did you know? The yellow banana eaten around the world is called a Cavendish or dessert banana. It became popular during the 1950s after a fungus decimated the Gros Michel banana, which was "richer and sweeter" than the bananas of today.
You may also find green bananas called plantains or platanos in your local market. This fruit is often cooked in savory, salty dishes.
