How to Draw a Biscuit
Draw a biscuit 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: a plate.
Step 1: A plate
Below the middle draw a long flat oval plate, and a second oval just inside it for the rim.
Step 2: The biscuit
On the plate draw a big soft dome as wide as your hand, with a rounded top and bulging sides.
Tip Soft and puffy, like a fat bun.
Step 3: The top rim
A little down from the top draw a bowed line across the biscuit, from side to side.
Step 4: Flaky layers
Across the sides draw 2 wavy lines from the left edge to the right edge, one below the other.
Step 5: A pat of butter
On the top draw a small square of butter lying flat: a tilted diamond with 2 short sides under it.
Step 6: A drip
From the bottom of the butter draw a short U drip with a round end, above the first wavy line.
Step 7: Table and crumbs
Draw a table line under the plate from left to right, and 3 tiny lumpy crumbs on the plate.
Step 8: Butter and sides
Go over your lines. Colour the butter and drip yellow, then the sides cream around them.
Step 9: Tan top
Colour the top above the rim tan around the butter, and the crumbs tan too.
Step 10: Blue plate
Colour the plate sky blue around the biscuit and crumbs, and your biscuit is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a biscuit, drawn by you.
