Draw two or more pine trees. If you notice, they look like triangles with jagged edges. -
Add a Christmas star in the sky. Add a star on each of the trees. Don't forget to put a little bit of snow on the tree. -
Paint your drawing. Use soft colors like sky blue, and a very pale purple and white for the sky and snow. And, of course, paint the trees green. Use gradients and texture as you wish.
