In this lesson I want to show you how to draw a thermometer. Thanks to a simple guide, you will once again train your creative abilities.
With the help of clear and accessible instructions, you will learn how to draw a thermometer step by step. This measuring device is familiar to you. With a thermometer, you can measure the temperature of the body and the environment.
In this lesson, you will draw a thermometer to measure the temperature of the human body. Such a thermometer is a glass flask that has a reservoir with mercury or another substance. With the help of a graduated scale, you can see the temperature level. This is such a simple design.
In this lesson, try to correctly depict the outer contour of the thermometer. Be careful and keep symmetry. Also, be careful when drawing the scale, because the distance between the divisions should be the same.
