How to Draw a Meatloaf
Draw a meatloaf 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
Low on your paper draw a big flat oval plate. Add a smaller oval inside it for the rim.
Step 2: The loaf
On the back left of the plate draw a low loaf with round corners. Rub out the plate lines inside.
Tip Keep it long and low, like a brick, so it does not look like a cake.
Step 3: The glaze drips
Start high on the loaf's left side. Draw a wavy line with 3 soft drips across to the right side.
Step 4: A slice
In front of the loaf's right end draw a slice lying flat: a low rounded slab, much wider than tall.
Tip The slice lies down flat. It does not stand up.
Step 5: Glaze on the slice
Along the top of the slice draw a line a little inside it, end to end, for the glaze.
Step 6: Peas
On the plate in front of the loaf, at the left, draw 4 little round peas in a bunch.
Step 7: Steam and table
Above the loaf draw 2 wiggly steam lines. Draw a table line under the plate, a little wider than it.
Step 8: Sky blue plate
Go over your lines, then colour the plate sky blue, going around the loaf, the slice and the peas.
Step 9: Green peas, red glaze
Colour the peas green. Colour the glaze on the loaf and on the slice red.
Step 10: Brown meatloaf
Colour the rest of the loaf and the slice brown, around the red drips. Your meatloaf is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a meatloaf, drawn by you.
