Step-by-Step Drawing Guide

Step 1: Draw the First Heart-Shaped Leaf and Stem

Start with a sideways heart-shaped leaf, rounder on the left and taller on the right.

Add two short curved lines inside to show the soft leaf texture.

Draw two close slanted lines from the lower right side to make a thin stem.

Pro Tip: Keep the bottom of the heart shape slightly tucked in so the stem connects naturally.

Step 2: Add the Second Heart-Shaped Leaf

Draw a larger heart-shaped leaf above and to the right of the first leaf.

Let the pointed bottom of the new leaf sit near the top of the first stem.

Add two straight lines downward from the new leaf to form a longer main stem.

Pro Tip: Make the second leaf slightly larger than the first to give the plant more depth.

Step 3: Add the Third Side Leaf

Draw a new heart-shaped leaf on the right side of the main stem.

Make this leaf smaller than the top leaf, with its base connected near the main stem.

Add two curved lines below it to form a side stem bending outward.

Pro Tip: Curve the side stem gently so the leaf looks naturally spread outward.

Step 4: Draw the Oval Rim and Pot Body

Draw a wide oval below the stems to make the pot opening.

Add a shallow pot body under the oval, with a bottom edge that curves slightly upward.

Keep all stems rising from the oval opening so the plant has a stable base.

Pro Tip: Keep the pot oval level so the whole plant does not look tilted.

Step 5: Complete the Rounded Pot

Draw a rounded pot body bulging outward below the rim.

Let both side curves tuck back inward to form a soft pouch shape.

Add two small oval feet at the bottom so the pot stands firmly.

Pro Tip: Keep the side curves similar on both sides so the pot looks balanced.

Step 6: Add a Cute Face to the Pot

Draw one round eye and one curved closed eye on the front of the pot.

Add a small smiling mouth in the middle to make the pot feel friendly.

Place a short dot and curved line on the left side as simple cheek details.

Pro Tip: Place the face slightly above the pot center so it does not crowd the bottom curve.
