How to Draw a Blueberry

1. Begin by drawing a circle. Draw curved lines across one side of it, giving the shape a three-dimensional appearance. Draw a small circle in the middle with a tiny "C" shaped line inside. This is the "belly button" or calyx of the fruit.

2. Draw the triangular sepals of the calyx around the circle.

3. Draw a large circle around the previous shapes, enclosing the berry. Notice that the calyx is not in the center of the berry, but to one side.

4. Draw the calyx of a second berry, this time from a different angle. Draw two "C" shaped lines that meet to form a narrow crescent. Enclose triangle shapes on the back of the crescent and "V" shaped lines connecting its two points. Finally, draw a small oval in the middle of the shape.

5. Enclose the round shape of the berry. Notice how the line appears to pass behind the triangular sepals.

6. Draw the calyx of the third and final berry. Begin by drawing an irregular round shape, and enclose curved triangles around it. Draw a circle with a tiny dot inside within the round shape, and band the top of the shape with curved lines.

7. Use curved lines to enclose the round blueberry outline.

8. Draw two leaves emerging from behind the berries. Outline each leaf using two curved lines that meet at sharp points.

9. Use long curved lines to trace the central veins of the leaves, with shorter curved lines forming the axillary veins.

Your blueberry outline is complete.

Color your blueberries. Most blueberries are dark blue in color. We've shaded ours to give them a round, three-dimensional appearance. A few types of blueberry are pink or even white!
