A way into the drawing

  1. Round the triangle

    Draw a broad rounded top and curve both sides down to a soft point.

  2. Sketch the leafy top

    Add two pointed leaves that spread over the top edge, then a short curved stem.

  3. Add a few seeds

    Place seven short pencil dashes inside the berry. Leave plenty of empty space between them.

A small thing to tryKeep the seed marks light and sparse. There is no need to fill every space.
