How to Draw a Wok
Draw a wok in 12 easy steps, about 9 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: wok top.
Step 1: Wok top
A little left of the middle draw 1 big wide oval, about two-thirds as wide as the page.
Tip A wok is a wide round pan with sloping sides.
Step 2: Round bowl
Start at the oval's left end. Draw a wide rounded bowl under it and come back up to the right end.
Tip Let the sides slope in to a round bottom, not straight down like a pot.
Step 3: 2 big eyes
Under the oval draw 2 big egg eyes, a little apart. Colour a black dot in each, leaving a shine.
Step 4: The inside
Inside the oval draw a second smaller oval, a finger in from the edge, so the wok has a rim.
Step 5: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a small U smile, and a flat oval cheek on each side of the face.
Step 6: The handles
Draw a long straight handle out from the oval's right end. Add a small round loop on the left end.
Step 7: Stir-fry
Inside the wok draw 3 little round veggie slices in a row, and a short wiggly noodle at each end.
Step 8: Sizzle
Above the wok draw 3 wiggly lines rising up for the sizzle, the middle one tallest.
Step 9: Stove line
Draw a long straight stove line under the wok, touching its round bottom.
Step 10: Orange veggies, pink cheeks
Colour the veggie slices orange and the cheeks pink.
Step 11: Wood handles
Colour the long handle and the little helper handle wood brown.
Step 12: Slate wok
Colour the inside light grey around the veggies, the rest slate around the face. Your wok is sizzling!
Tip Leave the eyes white.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a wok, drawn by you.
