How to Draw a Geyser
Draw a geyser 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: ground and mound.
Step 1: Ground and mound
Draw a low ground line. From it draw a wide low mound, round on top, back down to it.
Step 2: The water jet
Draw 2 lines up from the mound's top, join them with 3 splashy bumps, then rub out the line between.
Tip A tall thin tower of water that bursts into bumps on top.
Step 3: The steam cloud
Round the jet's top draw a wide bumpy steam cloud behind it, puffing out on both sides.
Step 4: Flying drops
Draw 4 little teardrops flying out from the jet, points up, 2 each side, the lower one further out.
Step 5: Rocks
At the foot of the mound draw 2 round rocks on the ground, one each side.
Step 6: Grass
Near each end of the ground line flick 2 short curved grass blades up from the ground.
Step 7: The sun
In the top left corner draw a small round sun with 8 short rays round it.
Step 8: Blue water
Colour the tall jet sky blue and all 4 flying drops blue.
Step 9: White steam, yellow sun
Leave the steam white and colour the sun yellow.
Step 10: Stone mound, grey rocks
Colour the mound stone grey around the jet and rocks, and the 2 rocks grey. Your geyser is done!

Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a geyser, drawn by you.
