How to Draw Jelly
Draw jelly 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 top dome.
Step 1: The top dome
Above the middle, start low on the left and draw a small upside-down U dome. Stop level on the right.
Step 2: The middle tier
Start at each end of the dome and draw a round shoulder out and down. Stop, leaving the bottom open.
Tip Do not draw a line across under the top dome.
Step 3: The bottom tier
From the ends of the middle tier draw the widest tier the same way, closed flat along the bottom.
Step 4: Ridges
Down each tier draw curved ridge lines: 2 on the top tier, 3 on the middle, 4 on the bottom.
Step 5: Cherry on top
Sit a round cherry on the top dome. From its top draw a short stem curving up to the right.
Step 6: The plate
Draw a flat oval plate behind and under the bottom tier, lifting your pencil where it would cross the jelly.
Step 7: Wobble lines
On each side of the jelly draw 2 short curved lines in the air, one outside the other.
Step 8: Shines
Draw a thin oval shine inside the left side of the cherry, the middle tier and the bottom tier.
Step 9: The table
Draw a line under the plate from well left to well right, just touching its bottom.
Step 10: Sky blue plate
Go over your lines, then colour the plate sky blue.
Step 11: Red jelly and cherry
Colour the jelly and the cherry red, leaving the shines white.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: jelly, drawn by you.
