20 Easy Mushroom Drawing Ideas

I’ve been seeing a lot of mushroom art these days so it inspired me to create this blog post of easy mushroom drawings to try out in your sketchbook.

I love mushrooms and find them so interesting that I even took a fungus class when I was in University.

There are so many different types out there and I hope I can showcase mushrooms well in this collective list.

I hope you enjoy the mushrooms and the fun of drawing them πŸ™‚

Drawing Tip:Β I recommend creating a pencil sketch of your drawing first. Then, if you like, you can go over that sketch with an ink pen. Finally, erase the sketch underneath once the ink dries and you have yourself your finished drawing!

2. Amanita Muscaria

This is the mushroom with the classic red mushroom cap with the white spots that many of us know. It is also commonly known as a Fly Agaric.

I created this drawing using color pencils.

Colored pencils are a great medium to use to draw as well! (In addition to pencils or pens)
