Learn More About The Band Aid Drawing

A Band Aid protects minor cuts and scrapes so that your skin can heal more quickly. Learn how to draw a Band Aid to practice human anatomy.

While people use "Band Aid" to mean "bandage," "Band Aid" is actually a brand name. You've probably used a Band Aid if you accidentally cut yourself or scraped your knee. They have a sticky adhesive that makes them hurt a little when you peel them off.

Human hands look complex, but you can outline the cartoon hand in this guide with a few basic lines and shapes.

If you've never drawn a hand before, you can jump right in or learn how to draw a basic cartoon hand. Once you've mastered the anatomy, you can draw more complex hand gestures.

Scroll down for a downloadable PDF of this tutorial.

Try drawing the hand without the bandage afterward so that you can customize your drawing. Maybe you could add rings, painted fingernails or bracelets. The hand could also hold an object, like a rod.

Hands aren't shiny like fingernails, but they still have different shades. Use multiple colors to capture the lighter and darker areas on the skin.
