Hiya everyone, welcome to Simple Easy Drawing! I have a new finish the drawing worksheet for you today. My glass and spoon worksheets got some really lovely responses on Pinterest, and I loved seeing what people did with them. So, I thought I’d make another one.
This time, I went with an umbrella for you to start with.
Download the Free Umbrella Drawing Worksheet
The umbrella has a groovy curved shape, which gives you quite a bit to work with. When I looked at it, I could picture a mushroom with a little stem underneath. I also thought it would make a good burger that looks like it’s half bitten.
But I don’t want to give away too many ideas! I’d rather see what you come up with when you look at the worksheet yourself. You might surprise yourself with what you end up drawing. I’ve made this worksheet available as a free PDF, so you can download it and print it whenever you’d like.
Once you’ve decided what your umbrella is going to become, use the existing shape as part of your new drawing. You can add a background, draw other objects around it, or include as many details as you like. There’s plenty of room on the page to develop your idea.
You don’t need any special art supplies for this. A regular pencil and some paper are enough to get started, but you can bring out your favorite markers, crayons, or colored pencils if you’d like to add some color.
If you’re working on this with someone else, try not to share your ideas beforehand. It might be interesting to see what each person comes up with independently. You could even make it a little drawing challenge and compare the finished pages afterward.
See what others drew with the umbrella worksheet
I have two finished drawings to share with you. I particularly like these examples because the umbrella was used in two very different ways.
1. A jellyfish
The first drawing turned the umbrella into a jellyfish! The rounded top became the jellyfish’s body, and the tentacles were added underneath. The underwater details help bring the whole picture together.
I like how the original umbrella shape works so well for this idea. It wasn’t necessary to change the starting shape very much. Instead, the drawing was built around it, and it became something you’d never immediately associate with an umbrella.
2. A girl
The second drawing is a girl, which is quite a different take on the worksheet. I like that the umbrella outline was used as part of a character rather than turned into another everyday object.
This is one of the things I find interesting about this activity. You aren’t limited to turning the starting shape into something similar. You can use it as one part of a much bigger idea, too.
I wouldn’t have thought of both of these ideas myself, so it was lovely to see how differently the two drawings turned out.

If you try this worksheet, I’d love to see your finished picture! You can email it to contact@simpleeasydrawing.com.
I welcome drawings from anyone who tries the activity. With your permission, I may feature your work here on Simple Easy Drawing. It’s always nice to share different interpretations of the same worksheet, and your drawing might give someone else an idea to try.
Don’t worry about whether your drawing looks polished or whether you’ve colored everything perfectly. I’d much rather see the idea you came up with and how you used the original umbrella shape.
You can also try my glass and spoon finish the drawing worksheets if you’d like to continue with another one. Or If you’d rather draw a regular umbrella, I have an easy step by step umbrella drawing tutorial for that, too. It’s a directed drawing, so you can follow along and draw your own umbrella one step at a time
Thank you for spending some time drawing with me. I hope you enjoy this worksheet, and I look forward to seeing your creations!
