How to Draw Sugar
Draw sugar 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 rim.
Step 1: The rim
Below the middle of your paper draw a flat oval, about a hand-width across.
Step 2: The bowl
Start at the left end of the oval. Draw a round U down and up to the right end.
Step 3: The foot
Under the bowl draw a short foot. Start on the bottom, go down, across, and back up to the bottom.
Step 4: A heap of sugar
Start at the left end of the oval. Draw a tall round hill of sugar, stopping at the right end.
Tip Rub out the back of the oval inside the hill.
Step 5: Two handles
On each side, just under the rim, draw a thin C handle that loops out and back to the bowl.
Step 6: A spoon
On the right draw a spoon standing in the sugar, its long handle leaning up and out to the right.
Step 7: A sugar cube
On the left of the hill draw a big sugar cube, a square with a thin top and side.
Step 8: Stripe and dots
Draw a bowed line round the bowl under the rim, side to side. Add 3 dots under it.
Step 9: The table
Draw a table line under the foot, from near the left edge across to the right.
Step 10: White sugar, sky bowl
Leave the sugar and cube white. Colour the bowl, foot and handles sky blue, around the band and dots.
Step 11: Blue band, grey spoon
Colour the band and the dots blue and the spoon grey, then go over your lines.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: sugar, drawn by you.
