Banana Split Drawing

The goal is to arrive at a finished drawing of a banana split by drawing one part at a time. It will take 9 steps to complete as we continue to create each area which will get us closer to the completed drawing. The final artwork will be completed with color resulting in a work of art you will be proud of!

Time Needed: 20 minutes

1. Outline The Bowl

   

   Draw a wide and flat U-shape to outline the glass bowl.

2. Attach The Bowl’s Base

   

   Attach the base of the glass bowl by drawing the shape as shown.

3. Outline The Banana

   

   Draw the outline of the banana on top of the bowl by making a U-shaped line.

4. Add The Ice Cream Scoops

   

   Add three scoops of ice cream on top of the banana by forming a round shape using bumpy lines.

5. Draw The Cherry Toppings

   

   Draw a circle with a long thin shape attached to the top to draw the cherries. Now you have drawn three cherries with stems on top!

6. Draw The Wafer Sticks

   

   Draw two long U-shaped lines to outline the wafer sticks. Then, draw evenly spaced diagonal lines to add the pattern of the wafer stick.

7. Add Banana Texture

   

   Draw two curved horizontal lines across the banana’s surface to add details on the banana.

8. Draw Ice Cream Texture

   

   Draw rough diagonal lines on the ice cream scoops as shown to add some texture.

9. Complete The Banana Split Drawing

   

   To complete the banana split drawing, color the glass bowl with a blue crayon. Next, color the banana with a yellow crayon then add a bit of shading with an orange crayon. Let’s use a different color for every scoop of ice cream. This drawing will have the classic vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry flavors. In the drawing, we used pink, brown and yellow crayons to color the ice cream scoops. Then, shade in the cherries with a red crayon. Lastly, color the wafer sticks with light brown and dark brown.
