How to Draw Miso Soup
Draw miso soup in 13 easy steps, about 10 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 rim.
Step 1: The rim
Above the middle of your paper draw a wide flat oval, about a hand wide, for the bowl's top.
Step 2: The bowl
Start at the left end of the oval. Draw a big U down and round, stopping at the right end.
Step 3: The foot
Draw a short stand under the bowl: start at bottom left, go down, across, and stop at bottom right.
Step 4: The soup
Inside the rim draw a second flat oval a finger inside it for the soup.
Step 5: Tofu cubes
In the soup draw 3 little tilted squares, spread out, for cubes of tofu.
Step 6: Seaweed
Draw 2 short wavy lines floating in the soup, for ribbons of seaweed.
Step 7: Spring onion
Draw 3 tiny rounds here and there in the soup for spring onion rings.
Step 8: Steam
Above the bowl draw 3 wiggly steam lines going up.
Step 9: A stripe
Draw a bowed line round the bowl a little under the rim, from the left side to the right side.
Step 10: The table
Draw a line under the foot from well left to well right, just touching its bottom.
Step 11: Tan soup, white tofu
Go over your lines, then colour the soup tan inside the inner oval, leaving the tofu cubes white.
Step 12: Green onion
Colour the spring onion rings green.
Step 13: Red bowl, black band
Colour the bowl, its foot and the rim around the soup red. Colour the band under the rim black.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: miso soup, drawn by you.
