- This video will show YOU how to draw realistic grass. I will take you through the steps on how to draw texture and the composition of grass. I even show you how to apply this to other drawings.
Check out my facebook page @ / tylersartshack
Here is a tutorial on how to draw tall grass. This can be used to fill in many areas of landscapes to add in visual interest and texture. This tutorial will help you to draw realistic grass by producing realistic texture.
This drawing only used a 2B and 2H pencil and at the very end I used a 4B for dark shadows to create depth.
The rest of the supplies you will need consist of sharp tipped erasers and a needle point of some sort.
This tutorial starts out with simple pencil strokes. Press a sharp pencil down on the page and flick it upwards to create a gradual line that ends in a sharp tip. After layering this, it will start to create a grass texture. When there is a simple layer on the page, start adding another layer and blend the two layers together. Do this by erasing larger blades of grass extending from the bottom layer to the top layer and also making pencil strokes that extend from the first to the second layer.
The continuing combination of erasing, adding darker lines, and shading will help to create a grass like texture.
To help show grass growing into the distance, Continue above the current grass but make the pencil strokes significantly smaller to the point that the grass is simply a shaded area.
I have a few photos on my facebook page on grass that I have drawn. Check them out to see some more examples.
All these videos are 8-11 years old and still help so incredibly much
They gave me a lot of confidence and helped a lot, so thank you for making them those years ago
And here I thought with myself: "BS, I'm not going to find a tutorial on tall grass, that's way too specific..." TA-DA! It looks amazing!
No replies after 8 years
yes it looks amazing🙂🙃

I do both just to add in some variation. The biggest difference though is that if you start from the bottom and when you "flick" the pencil upwards, you get a nice thin line that really helps to give the grass its overall effect.
Thank you for doing these tutorials!! It seems UA-cam is lacking drawing tutorials as in depth and helpful as these!!!
Just take your time and practice. Replicating a drawing can take a long time to perform and understand. It is a long term hobby which takes work but it does pay off in time.
I enjoy your teaching style, especially the rhythm. Plan to watch everything you teach, thanks
Wish you were still teaching. I still come back to your videos. Hope you are well.
Tyler, I love your style. I have over bombarded myself with so many tutorials on drawing and so many different ways! You are not so critical! as so many are that I've seen with tools, blending, etc.etc. Your drawings are great works and I've love to be able do it the way you do. Standardizing as you do.
Thank you very much! I always try to have an open mind when it comes to art. I like to keep rules and guidelines to a minimum but still keep them there to stay on track. I find that when I get too strict with my drawings, it frustrates me. This is also why I draw the way I do. It still has a realistic look to it but it breaks it down into many steps.
Thanks so much. I've recently been doing a sketch of the Polish Winged hussar and I found this then filled up the gaps! Also can you make a video on how to draw Medieval armour with all the reflections?
I love your tutorial on tall grass. Thank you so much.
Love it! I'm SO glad I found your channel & subscribed when I did, because I've learned TONS about my favorite scenes to draw: nature. Thanks a million.
I absolutely love your videos man! Your videos give me so much more confidence when I’m drawing.
Thank you so much for this advice. It enabled me to finish a drawing and got me over the stabling block of drawing grass.
i don't understand why anyone would dislike this video, when i don't like a video i just leave
Parabéns amigo.... gostei muito do video. Desejo sucesso sempre pra vc. Um grande abraço.
I am glad that it helped you out! Thanks for subscribing!
Great videos .being one of a few that takes the time to walk the viewers though and narrate that make your production top notch. Keep it up
just used this grass tutorial in a drawing i done of your tree tutorial,really good tips made it nice n easy for me to do
I am glad you enjoyed it. I think that there are a lot of videos out there that show you how to draw. The problem is that a lot of those channels stop uploading after some time. There is only a small handful that are constantly uploading new content on a week by week basis.
It was very very helpful for me! Thank you a lot for this tutorial.
will give your idea a go been trying for ages to master grasses on sand dunes
Understanding grass took me quite a few days of just trying to draw it to understand how to really do it. I learned it out of a book called Beautiful Landscapes by Diane Wright.
Good work, Can you draw in-depth leaves on a tree. I just can't get it right. Thank you.
That is so awesome to hear. Thanks for the comment!
I just came across your video. Trying to start worldbuilding on areas for my adventure game that needed grassfields. Will definitely practice on this since I really haven't drawn much of grass before yet or anything in that general area.
Tysm I drew a cross facing the sunset with grass! :D
Ur the only comment from this month lol
Thank you! Glad that you enjoyed it. A lot of my videos since this one include grass in it that covers how to draw it. So you might be able to catch it in different environments. Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial! I’ll be practicing!
So easy I love 💕😘 it keep it up 👍🎉🎉😊
@TylersArtShack @TylersArtShack thanks Tyler. I'll enjoy your other videos in the meantime
It just takes time and patience. It even took me quite a few tries to get the method down.
Thanks for all of your tips. They are really appreciated!
This video is very good. It helped me to draw grass for my landscape in the Art lesson.
I will do more real time in the future. I am still trying to find that perfect video format without completely copying someone else's style haha.
Great tutorial. Thank you.
Nice demo. I'm always learning some new drawing technique watching your videos.
Just came across this video it’s really amazing I’m going follow this I’m trying to draw a Field of flowers and grass
Omg I’m so glad I found this video you are the reason I’m not gonna fail art class lol
I like your idea. Ill be sure to make note of it so that I remember. Thanks for the suggestion!
thank you for the video and can draw a stormy night with trees and stuff
@neongrey101 Just takes a bit of practice. I had a very hard time learning this from a step by step demonstration in a book I have. I have many failed attempts at it. Now I finally understand it after trying it a couple of times.
all your videos are really helpful thanks
Im using graphite sticks shaped like pencils .. pretty nifty . I like this clip . its helped alot
Yep, It really depends on what you are trying to do but in this case, a sharper pencil really helps to draw some better grass.
Thank you! It helped me so much!
Got me into a whole new level of drawing :)
Well I think its Fabulous.... so well done!
the drawing looks cool
that nice tip i think if you don't mind i use this in my beach painting.
Good stuff. Looking forward to working through your videos.
This video has helped me so much! lol ty so much. Subscribed
Great video! Thanks for the suggestion of the book 'Beautiful Landscapes'. I wanted to learn to draw but got discouraged because I started with trying to draw cats. I think something too hard to start out with. This might be easier.
Good pencil drawing video!😌
awesome grass, loved it!
You are amazing!!!
I actually drew some pretty decent grass for the first time, thank YOU !
Yep! I saw the photo you posted yesterday on my FB page. It looks really really gooood! Ill have another look at it when I am done catching up with comments too! I hope you keep it up!
Very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for tutorial)🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for sharing I been doing that for awhile the grass is somewhat, I can't get it to detail just like you did.
Hey Tyler! i am a student an art schools and majoring in visual arts, i don't know if you have tutorials on the already but here is a challenge, do a still life of something and use stippling to fill it in. the end results are great for me and i wanted to see if you would try it. thanks! btw i subed.
YAY! I am glad it worked out for you!
You are best teacher
How do you get your pencils so sharp? Whenever I try to sharpen a pencil that is slightly dull it will just break, so I end up using a lot of pencil to make it sharp.
I have been a bit confused in the landscape drawing process. (when to place in the for- ground objects and how keep astmospheric perspective) - being lost in the details. But, your Video on the Summer Mountain scene has helped me a lot. Using the grid system and by placeing in each object on the grid lines at the start of the process. Then defining for me clearly the form I am trying for. I was trying it like a painting process... But the drawings were way to busy or muddy. Using that grid realy has helped me. Also, it has helped with forshortening and defining the shadow areas more clearly. All of your information is real and useable for me, and It is helping me become better. So thank you kind sir. I am enjoying all the viedos. Jon in Tennesse.
so you said you started with a 2b pencil then you say you used a very fine tip pencil to get the streaks. So are you saying the 2b pencil is the sharp tip pencil or was the 2b not sharp enough and you changed??
I would assume that if you were drawing it from a birds eye view that you would be rather high up on a cliff or some other object looking down. At that point I would only just do a generalized shading process. I wouldn't focus on the detail work because you would be pretty far away. I might hint at some of that detail but not much.
Thank you, great help!
8 years I found your video to learn about how to draw grass... Thanks for the info!
Would it be possible for you to show how to draw grasses that are tall and also bent over at the top, either because of heavy seed heads, or just because they grow that way. We have a clump in our garden that is about 6 feet tall, but the last two feet bend over so far the tips are almost pointing to the ground... thanks, I found this video very helpful.
WOW, excellent!! first time drawing and it turns out great, thank you!
Glad to hear that it helped!
I have a few but they are old videos. I haven't done anything with them recently really. although I did do one recently now that I think about it. I made a hawaiian scene with chalk pastels. It is one of my latest uploads actually haha. Have a look at that one :)
@henrycems Haha bust out that old sketchbook!! This is pretty fun to do. But it takes a while to do. It took me about an hour to draw this much grass for the tutorial.
It doesn't really matter if people dislike it though. It still counts as viewer engagement and brings the video up higher in the search rankings for some reason haha. But what does help is the comments that I get. That really helps towards the future of what I do here on this channel.
Hi, really helpful!!! You make look real easy....thanks
Do you ever do videos with Chalk or Soft Pastels? I find that they are fun to play around with.
Thanks so much.. helped me lots for school!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@TylersArtShack ok thank you very much
It's so beautiful!! ^^
thanks, I used it for my assignment, God bless you
Very helpful tutorial on grass. I was wondering if I used a brush over the initial grass and toned it down then applied new grass over it would that not give the same effect? I haven't tried it yet but was wondering what your opinion is. Thanks and keep the videos coming. I really learn a lot from them.
excellent. thank you.
thx i finally learned how to sketch
I think if you slowed down it would be better for us who are trying to learn from someone who does it so well!
I like drawing with Paolo Morrone He is awesome too.
@skippman84 haha, I am glad you will be able to take my videos and put them to good use. Good luck!
This helped me a lot!! Thank you so much!!!
My tall grass pic came out good, thanks for the video, been thinking I have enough room, might put a barn in the background., also made my barbed wire sag a little, gives it a cooler look.
That's awesome! Thanks a lot for letting me know!
There are 2 types of people in this world, ones who watch from a far and ones who bring the far closer to them
Oh my gosh stippling takes so much time to doooo haha. That is quite the challenge. But unfortunately, I have not done any such video on my channel. Ill have to write that one down. I always like a challenge haha. Thanks for subbing as well!
I had to look that up to even figure out who you were referencing to. I can kinda see where you are coming from with that haha.
loved it,learned a lot,thank you👍🌞😆
Very helpful!Thanks Dude!😊
Thank you very helpful and looking very realistic
@gameman81 I have had many people ask me to to draw storm clouds. I will look up some photos and see if I can replicate them.
U r great I want to draw that
good job, the result looks great! Can you tell me which pencil you used here (B, 2B,...)? Maybe you could write that into the videodescription next time? It's always good to know
Thanks man, this was pretty helpful tutorial ;в
this video was my salvation!
