How to Draw Pancreas
Draw pancreas 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: the bumpy top.
Step 1: The bumpy top
Start at the left. Draw 9 soft bumps up, over a fat head and along, stopping at the far right.
Tip Let the line climb a little as it goes right.
Step 2: The bumpy bottom
From the right end draw bumps back underneath. Dip down round the fat head and join the start.
Tip It looks like a fat tadpole: a big head and a thin tail.
Step 3: The curved tube
Round the head draw a fat C tube. Start above the head and stop under it, with flat ends.
Tip The tube tucks behind the head, so do not draw inside the head.
Step 4: The duct
Start on the head's left edge. Draw a thin tube along the middle, round near the tail, and back.
Tip Make it thinner and thinner towards the tail.
Step 5: Little branches
Draw 4 short lines growing from the thin tube, 2 above and 2 below, all leaning towards the tail.
Step 6: Sparkles
Draw 3 sparkle stars: one above the pancreas, one below it, and a small one by the tail.
Step 7: Yellow sparkles
Colour the 3 sparkles yellow.
Step 8: Yellow pancreas
Colour the bumpy pancreas yellow too. Go around the thin tube and leave it white for now.
Step 9: Pink tube
Colour the fat curved tube pink, right up to the head.
Step 10: Orange duct
Colour the thin tube inside the pancreas orange. Go over your lines, and your pancreas is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: pancreas, drawn by you.
