How to Draw a Fire Pit
Draw a fire pit in 11 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 bowl.
Step 1: The bowl
Below the middle of your paper draw a big half circle bowl, flat on top, as wide as your hand.
Tip Leave room above for flames and below for legs.
Step 2: Two big eyes
On the bowl draw 2 big egg eyes, one eye apart. Add a black dot in each with a shine.
Step 3: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a U smile from eye to eye. Add a small oval cheek beside each end.
Step 4: The rim
On top of the bowl draw a thin flat bar, sticking out a little past the bowl on both sides.
Step 5: Legs and ground
Draw a ground line across under the bowl. Add 3 short legs from the bowl down to the line.
Step 6: The big flame
Start on the rim at the left. Draw a wobbly flame up to a point and down to the rim.
Step 7: The inner flame
Inside the big flame draw a smaller flame the same way, from the rim to a point and back.
Step 8: Little sparks
Draw 3 little 4-point star sparks above the flame, not touching it.
Step 9: Pink cheeks, yellow sparks
Colour the cheeks pink and the sparks yellow.
Step 10: Yellow and orange flames
Colour the inner flame yellow, then colour the big flame orange around it.
Step 11: Grey bowl
Colour the bowl, rim and legs dark grey around the cheeks, leaving the eyes white. Your fire pit crackles!
