Hello, art friends! Today, we’re going to have fun drawing a yummy bowl of macaroni and cheese. This is a favorite dish for many, especially with extra cheese on top. Let’s get our art supplies ready and start drawing!
Here’s what you’ll need to draw with us:
First, let’s draw the bowl. Turn your paper sideways. Draw a big smile shape for the top of the bowl. Then, draw the bottom by making a big U shape. Connect the sides with two lines and a curve at the bottom to make a stand.
Now, let’s draw the macaroni noodles! Start with an upside-down U shape sticking out of the bowl. Add another one next to it. Inside each U, draw little ovals for the ends of the noodles. Keep adding more noodles with different shapes like rainbows and C’s to fill the bowl.
Keep drawing more macaroni shapes to fill up the bowl. Make some noodles overlap to look like they’re stacked on top of each other. This makes them look real and 3D!
Finish the bowl by drawing the edges on both sides. Make sure they curve into the macaroni to look like they’re holding the noodles.
Let’s add a spoon or fork coming out of the noodles. Draw two lines for the handle and connect them at the end to make the spoon’s shape.
To make your drawing funny, add a face to the bowl! Draw two big circles for eyes and smaller circles inside for sparkle. Add a smile and a tongue to show the macaroni is happy. You can even add little cheek lines for extra fun!
Now, let’s color our drawing! Use bright yellow for the macaroni and a darker shade for shadows to make it look real. Color the bowl blue and use pink for the cheeks and tongue.
Once you’re done coloring, take a moment to look at your awesome art. You can pause and make sure everything looks great.
We hope you had a blast drawing macaroni and cheese! Remember, art is all about having fun, so keep practicing and enjoy creating. Happy drawing, and see you next time!
Macaroni Shape Hunt: Go on a shape hunt around your house or classroom to find objects that look like the shapes you used in your macaroni drawing. Can you find something that looks like a U shape or a C shape? Draw or take a picture of the objects you find and share them with your friends or family.
Make Your Own Macaroni Art: Use real macaroni noodles to create a 3D art piece. Glue the noodles onto a piece of paper to form a fun design or picture. You can paint the noodles different colors to make your artwork even more exciting. What other shapes can you create with the noodles?
