How to Draw a Bandage
Draw a bandage in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the strip.
Step 1: The strip
Just below the middle of your paper draw 1 long strip with rounded ends, nearly as wide as the page.
Step 2: The pad
In the middle of the strip draw a smaller box for the pad. Leave a wing each side.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the pad draw 2 big round eyes a finger apart. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Start under the left eye and draw a wide U smile, stopping under the right eye. Add 2 cheeks.
Step 5: Tiny holes
On each wing draw 6 tiny dots in 2 neat rows of 3, like the little holes in a plaster.
Step 6: Sparkles
Draw 2 sparkle stars above the plaster, 1 on the left and 1 on the right.
Step 7: The table
Draw a long table line under the strip, from one edge of your paper to the other.
Step 8: White pad, pink cheeks
Colour the pad white, leaving the eyes white too, and colour the cheeks pink.
Step 9: Peach strip
Go over your lines, then colour the strip peach, going around the pad.
Step 10: Yellow sparkles
Colour the sparkle stars yellow. Your plaster is ready to make it all better!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a bandage, drawn by you.
