Black and white botanical line drawing of snowberries on branches with stippling shading.

A black and white botanical line drawing in horticultural style focusing exclusively on the snowberries (Symphoricarpos albus). Depict smooth, round to slightly oval berry-like drupes approximately 6 to 10 millimeters in diameter. Each berry should have a subtly flattened or gently rounded contour with a smooth, glossy surface texture. Show the signature small, shallow attachment scar (where the berry was connected to the stem), but exclude any leaves, stems, flowers, roots, or other plant parts. Illustrate the berries arranged naturally in small clusters or groups that occur along the branches. The clusters typically consist of about 5 to 15 berries, spaced with visible separation so each berry’s individual form and detail can be clearly observed. The berries are not tightly packed into dense bunches but rather appear loosely grouped, often hanging singly or in small groups spaced naturally along the twiggy branches. Emphasize fine, precise linework and use stippling or cross-hatching shading to capture the smoothness of the berry surface and gentle contouring that conveys subtle volume and texture. Strong tonal contrast should be applied throughout to reflect the botanical illustration style typical of vintage scientific drawings. See more
