Drawing fir trees

Junior group

We draw on tinted paper, on the entire sheet or strip, with paint Green colour, with a wide brush.

Explanation:

We indicate where the spruce grows - I draw an even, straight line from left to right green paint. Then I draw a straight and beautiful trunk - I draw a vertical line from top to bottom, start painting with the tip of the brush, and then with the whole brush. Now I'm drawing branches. At the top of the head the branches are short and point upward towards the sun. I draw the rest of the branches, starting from the top - I draw a line from the trunk down on one side and on the other, at the top they are short, and then they grow, grow (we draw the line of the branch), and this branch is even longer (grows, grows, grows).

Middle group

We draw on tinted paper, on the entire sheet or strip, with brown and green paint. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches and thin for the needles.

Explanation:

I take a wide ki exist and brown paint I indicate where the spruce grows, draw an even straight line from left to right. Then I draw a straight, beautiful trunk - I draw a vertical line from top to bottom, start painting with the tip of the brush, and then with the whole brush. I take a medium-thick brush, with which I will paint brown twigs. The spruce tree has a crown. I draw 2 small branches that look up at the sun. Now I draw the rest of the branches, starting from the top. The branches at the top are small and look down on one side and the other, below the branches are longer, even longer and the longest. Now I paint needles on the Christmas tree with a thin brush and green paint. They grow on branches on one side and the other.

In winter, you can draw a spruce covered with snow and decorated with lights for the New Year holiday.

Senior group

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper with brown and green paint. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches and thin for the needles.

Explanation:

We don’t indicate where the spruce grows, we immediately draw the trunk. I take a wide brush and draw a straight line with brown paint at the end with pressure, from the top point I draw another similar line next to it and so on several times to get a beautiful, straight trunk. Now I paint the branches with a medium brush. The technique is the same as in middle group. At the top 2 are small up, the rest are long to the sides. The spruce branches have “legs” - small branches, I’ll draw them under the big ones (show). Now we paint the pine needles with green paint and a thin brush.

New Year tree decorate with a garland and draw a stand under it. In this group we give images of fir trees near and far. Please note that here the branches are not painted separately with brown paint, but the spreading paws are painted immediately with green paint.

Preparatory group

We draw on tinted paper, gouache, palette - on it we will create different shades Green colour. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches, thin for the needles.

Explanation:

The drawing technique does not change. Only when depicting the needles do we pay attention to the fact that the upper branches are young, elastic and the greenery on them is bright, while the needles on the branches below are old and dark in color.

Drawing trees

Junior group

We draw on tinted paper, on the entire sheet or strip, with black paint and a wide brush.

Explanation:

We indicate where the tree grows - I draw an even, straight line from left to right with black paint. Then I draw a straight, beautiful trunk - I draw a vertical line from top to bottom, start painting with the tip of the brush, and then with the whole brush. Now I'm drawing branches. The tree has a crown - I draw 2 small branches up. The spruce branches grow downward, and the tree branches grow upward towards the sun. Raise your hands up, in the same way we will draw twigs on a tree, the brush will show where the twig grows - it grows from the trunk upward (I draw a line), now I draw a twig on the other side - it grows, grows.

Middle group

We draw on tinted paper, on the entire sheet or strip, with paint Brown. We give 2 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches.

Explanation:

I take a wide brush and use brown paint to mark where the tree grows, draw an even, straight line from left to right. The tree has a straight, beautiful, even trunk - I draw a vertical line from top to bottom, start painting with the tip of the brush, and then with the whole brush. I take a medium-thick brush, with which I will paint brown branches. With the tip of the brush I paint 2 small branches on the tops of the heads, which look up at the sun. The tree has thick branches, and they all grow upward - towards the sun, I paint them with the whole brush on one side and the other of the trunk. And on thick branches there are thin ones, they also reach out to the sun, I paint them with the tip of a brush on one and the other side of the branch.

Encourage children to watch their friend’s work and exchange opinions.

In the middle group you can draw a tree in different time years: covered with snow in winter, in spring, summer, autumn - with leaves, we draw them by dipping them.

Senior group

We will draw varieties of trees. Pay special attention to the fact that if children in the older group, even after repeated observations, draw poorly, then this work should be transferred to the preparatory group, since this material is very difficult for children.

Pine

If children have mastered the technique of drawing fir trees well, they can be taught to draw pine trees.

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper, gouache, palette. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches, thin for the needles.

Explanation:

The pine has a beautiful, even trunk of light brown, golden color, because pine really loves light and sun. Create this color on the palette. The technique for drawing a trunk is the same as for spruce. Pay attention to the branches, they grow to the sides of the trunk, alternately on one side and the other, the branches are short at the top, longer at the bottom. There were also branches below, but they all lacked light and sun, and they broke off, leaving only small twigs. Pine needles are emerald, long and fluffy. Using a thin brush we make long ones from the branch into different sides strokes.

Birch

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper with white and black paint. We give 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

The birch has a beautiful trunk - I paint the trunk with a wide brush of white paint, just as we painted the trunk of other trees. The birch tree has black specks on its trunk, we will paint them later when the white paint has dried. Birch is called curly birch. Its branches are beautiful, elastic, and bent down. I take a medium brush and use black paint to paint thick branches from the trunk on one side and the other, starting from the top. And from the thick branches come thin ones, like garlands, descending down. The birch trunk has dried up, now let’s decorate it with black dots. Remember, when we looked at it, we noted that the trunk was very black at the bottom and there were fewer dots at the top.

We draw a birch tree at different times of the year: snowy in winter and green in spring (we draw the outline of the crown and dotted leaves in a raw way).

Apple tree

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper, gouache, palette. We give 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

I paint the trunk with a wide brush and dark brown paint. The drawing technique is the same. Now I will paint the crown with a medium-thick brush. The crown of the apple tree is like a bowl. Large branches grow from the bowl towards the sun, and small ones on them. Because the apple tree has such a crown it is called spreading. I paint the leaves of the apple tree by dabbing, with the end of the brush pointing upward.

You can also give the theme “Apple tree in bloom” - with pink paint we paint the flowers with curls, but we don’t paint the leaves.

Drawing varieties of trees in the older group can only be taught if the children have high technical skills. In case of difficulties in the senior group, it is better to leave drawing a tree according to the method of the middle group and teach drawing a birch; the rest should be taught in the preparatory group.

Preparatory group

We continue to draw varieties of trees.

We draw on tinted paper in two stripes, gouache, palette. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness and hard.

Explanation:

The oak is called a giant, its trunk is very thick, I will paint it with a wide brush with brown paint like this - I will draw a central line and “build up” the trunk on one side and the other. The trunk is thick, the oak is mighty, it stands firmly on the ground - the roots are visible. Using a medium brush, I paint the branches with brown paint. The branches have bent from time to time, they are old and thick. The oak tree does not have a crown like other trees. At the top the branches are curved and thick curved branches extend from the trunk. Small curved branches come off from the thick branches; I paint them with the tip of a brush. The greenery of the oak is transparent, carved, I will paint it with a hard glue brush “poke”.

Pine

In this group you can teach drawing a pine tree with colored pencils, but for children it is very difficult. Children also learn to draw a young pine tree.

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper, palette. We give 2 brushes: wide for the trunk and medium thickness for the needles.

Explanation:

Using a wide brush with light brown paint, I paint a short trunk. The technique is the same as when drawing fir trees. We pay special attention to the branches. I draw 2 small ones at the top, and then from the trunk I draw 2 branches up to the sun and from here 2 down. Now I paint the needles with the middle brush, the upper branches are young - the needles on them are light, bright, the lower branches are older - the needles are dark.

In this group you can show how to draw a crown without branches - with an outline.

Also at this age, children enjoy drawing various fairy trees.

Drawing transport

Junior group

We don't teach you how to draw cars.

Middle group

We draw the transport in parts and immediately paint over each part.

You need green, blue and black paints and a thick brush.

Explanation:

I take a brush and paint the engine of the car with blue paint and paint it over. Now I’m drawing a cabin where the driver sits, it will look like this (show). Now I’ll use green paint to paint the body where the cargo is carried. My body will be large, I will paint it with green paint. All that remains is to draw the wheels, they are round and I will paint them with black paint. I draw one, where the engine is, under it, the second, where the body is, I’ll paint them.

In this group we give different types of cars. We don't give you a method. All cars are drawn according to the same scheme, only the body shape changes ( van, milk tankerand so on.)

We give drawing of a passenger car, a bus. First we draw with a simple pencil.

Passenger car

Before drawing we consider in detail passenger car, we highlight that it has an engine, a salon where the driver and passengers sit, and a trunk. Wheels – one is where the engine is, the other is where the trunk is.

Bus

Let's highlight the features: there is a front and rear windshield, there are several windows in the cabin, two doors, the wheels are located under the doors.

Drawing houses

Junior group

We comment on drawing a house in the same way as we build it from a builder.

You will need yellow and red paint and a wide brush.

Explanation:

I start painting the house from the floor - I draw a straight line from left to right with green paint. Now I’ll build walls near the house - first one - I’ll draw a line from the top to the floor, and now the second (show). The walls are ready. Now I draw the ceiling - I will connect the walls with a straight line from left to right. I'll paint the house. Now I will build a roof for the house. I will paint it with red paint. In order for the roof to hold well, I’ll put a beam - I’ll draw a line from top to bottom to the ceiling (demonstration). Now I’ll build a roof from a beam, like this (demonstration). I will paint the roof of the house with red paint. When children learn to draw a house well enough, they don’t need to draw the beam.

Middle group

We draw one-story buildings, fabulous ones, and decorate them. You need red and yellow paint, two brushes: wide and thin. The drawing technique is the same. If children have mastered drawing one-story houses well, in the second half of the year they can teach drawing multi-story houses.

Senior and preparatory groups

We draw houses of different configurations. A simple pencil is provided. Children draw two-story houses near and far. Details are drawn up close, windows in the distance are depicted with brush strokes.

Drawing animals

Junior group

We start drawing animals with a round shape.

Bear

Wide brush, brown and black paints.

Explanation:

I draw a circle with brown paint - this will be the head of a bear, I paint it over. Now I’ll draw a larger circle - this is the body of a bear, I’ll paint it over. I’ll draw two small circles on my head – these are the bear’s ears. It remains to draw the paws, the bear has 4 paws, I’ll draw two at the top of the body and two at the bottom, paint them over. When the paint dries, I will paint the eyes and nose in black.

Using the same method, we draw a bunny, a cat, and a chicken.

Middle group

We teach you how to draw a hare and a bear based on familiar shapes, without a neck, in a static state.

Bunny

Gray, black paints, medium thick brush.

Explanation:

Using gray paint I will draw an oval body and an oval head. The hare's ears are long. The paws are oval, he crushed them under himself. The tail is small and round. When the paint dries, I'll take black paint and paint the eyes and nose.

Senior group

We teach you how to draw animals in different poses.

Gouache, palette, 2 brushes: medium thickness and thin, a simple pencil for drawing the structure.

Hare sitting

Explanation:

The basis of the explanation is the same as in the middle group. The body is oval, the head is oval. The ears are long, the bunny listens carefully to the silence of the forest. Hind legs long, strong, bent, and he leans on his front ones when he sits. The tail is short. When the paint dries, we draw the hare’s eyes - they are slanted, the nose is a triangle, and there is a mustache.

Squirrel

Explanation:

Oval body, round head with an elongated muzzle. The ears are short and have tufts at the ends. The hind legs are bent, she sits on them, and holds a nut or fungus in her front legs. The tail is fluffy.

The cat is lying

Explanation: too. She stretched out one paw and tucked her hind paws under herself. The tail is fluffy.

A dog or cat is walking

Children can draw them with 2 or 4 legs. No comments should be made, everyone can see differently.

Preparatory group

Horse

Explanation:

The horse has an oval body and an oval head. The neck is long and beautiful (connecting smoothly). Her legs are long, thicker at the top, because she works hard, they are strong. The legs end in hooves. Beautiful tail and mane. The ears are small.

Using the same scheme, we draw a cow and a deer, but do not forget about the antlers.

After the children have developed the skill of drawing a horse, we give a topic "Fairytale horse"

Drawing birds

Junior group and middle group

Chick

Gouache – yellow and brown, 2 brushes: thick and thin.

Explanation:

I'll take a thick brush and dip it in yellow paint, I’ll remove the excess on the edge of the jar. I’ll draw a round chicken body, like a lump. The chicken's head is the same round, only smaller than the body. The tail is small and looks up. When the paint dries, I will paint with a thin brush with brown paint long legs. The chicken has eyes on its head. The beak is short. The chicken has small wings.

Duckling

Gouache – yellow, red and brown, 2 brushes: thick and thin.

Explanation:

I’ll take a thick brush, carefully dip it into the yellow paint, and wipe off the excess on the edge of the jar. I will draw an oval body for the duckling. The head is round, the tail is small. When the paint dries, I’ll paint the legs with a thin brush of red paint - short and wide, so that the duck can swim comfortably. Now I’ll draw a beak, also wide. Using brown paint I will paint the duckling's eyes and a small wing.

Sparrow

Gouache – black and brown, 2 brushes: thick and thin.

Explanation:

The same as when drawing a chicken.

We also give drawings of other types of birds. Birds are different. The explanation is the same as drawing a duck. Change – tail triangle.

From the 2nd half of the middle group

We give drawing with complication.

Explanation:

The body of birds is either round or oval. The head is round, I will draw it a little further from the body, and then I will connect the head with the body - this is the bird’s neck. (Here it doesn’t matter how the child positions the bird’s head - up - looking at the sun, down - looking for a worm) When drawing legs, we turn to the experience of children and remember that when we watched birds, we saw that they had thickenings on their legs - triangle. After the paint has dried, use a thin brush to paint the feathers on the tail, wing, and beak in a different color.

Senior and preparatory groups

Waterfowl

Explanation:

We draw according to the same scheme as in the middle group, but give characteristics. For example, we draw a goose in the same way as a duck, but we pay attention that the goose has a long neck, so we draw the head far from the body. There is a crest on the head. For drawing we give different colour goose and ducks: white, yellow, black.

Cockerel

Gouache, 2 brushes: medium thickness and thin.

Explanation:

The same, but pay attention to the fact that the neck is smoothly connected to the body; the rooster has a strong, powerful chest. The legs are also strong, because the rooster is the protector of the chickens. After the paint has dried, use a thin brush to paint a beautiful comb, beard, and beak. Now let’s draw a beautiful multi-colored tail for the rooster.

Fairytale bird

We teach this topic only when the children have strong, lasting skills. On this topic we give children 5-6 samples, we never give 1.

Explanation:

The base is the same, but we give you the right to choose colors.

Drawing a man

Junior group

We don’t draw a person, we only gradually lead to this by drawing rounded shapes(sun, bun, tumbler)

Middle group

Children begin drawing from the cone-shaped body.

First topic: “Girl in a long fur coat.”

This topic is divided into two lessons.

1 lesson

Gouache – blue and flesh-colored (pink), wide brush.

Explanation:

I take a brush and paint the girl’s head with pink paint – it’s round. Now I will paint the girl’s long fur coat with blue paint. I step back a little from the head and draw a triangle. The fur coat has sleeves, like spruce branches, I paint with one downward movement of the brush. The girl has a hat on her head. To draw eyes, lips, nose, you can give a pencil or felt-tip pen. The teacher himself can draw: “Let’s bring your girl to life.”

Lesson 2

If the children did a good job, then we give them white paint and offer to draw the edge of the fur coat and hat. If it doesn’t turn out well enough, you can invite all or some of the children to draw a friend for the girl. “You and I have already drawn a girl in a long fur coat, let’s draw a friend for her so that she won’t be bored.”

Lesson 3 – “Bear”

To make it easier for children to draw a naked doll in the next lesson, we first teach them how to draw a bear.

Gouache – brown, black, 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

I take a brush and use brown paint to paint a bear with a round head. To make the bear have an oval body, I will draw 2 circles - one under the other and then connect them, I will get an oval - the body of the bear. I will draw small ears on the head. Now I’ll draw oval paws - 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom (show). When the paint dries, paint the eyes and nose with black paint.

Lesson 4 – “Nude Doll”

Gouache - yellow, red, black. 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

We draw it in the same way as a bear, but we immediately draw the body oval. Oval arms and legs. Instead of ears we draw hair. Let's draw panties. When the paint dries, we bring the doll to life - draw eyes, a nose, and a mouth.

Lesson 5 – “Doll in a red dress”

Gouache – yellow, red, black. 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

We draw it the same way as a naked doll, but we dress it in a dress (triangle).

Senior and preparatory groups

A simple pencil.

We draw a person according to the diagram.

Explanation:

To make it easier for you to learn how to draw a person, I will teach you first to draw a diagram, and then from it - a little man. A person has a round head - draw a circle. Short neck - draw a vertical line. Now I draw a horizontal line - this is the line of the shoulders, it is wider than the head. Now I’ll draw a longer vertical line - this is the line of the body, it is equal to the size of two heads. Below I will draw the line of the hips, it is equal to the line of the shoulders. On the body I will mark the waist line, it is equal to half the shoulder line. Now from the shoulders I will draw a line of the arms obliquely to the line of the hips. From the line of the hips we draw the lines of the legs; they are longer than the torso.

Several lessons are devoted to drawing diagrams until all children have mastered it, since this is the basis of the basics.

"Man on the Move"

A simple pencil.

Explanation:

In the first lesson, we draw the same diagram as usual, but mark the bend points on the arms and legs. Then we show how to draw a diagram to convey movement. To convey movement, you can use a child to show the direction of the lines of the arms and legs.

Technique for drawing trees

in senior and preparatory groups.

Senior group

The senior group teacher faces the following tasks: develop children have observation, imagination, initiative, independence; cultivate an aesthetic attitude towards the environment, teach children to describe an object, his form, highlighting the most essential features of the era, compare objects by shape and color; convey the relative sizes of objects, form spatial imagination; learn to draw from winter chalk and from memory, achieve an expressive solution to the composition.

The teacher should introduce children to works of decorative and applied art, folk crafts; teach them to distinguish, name and select colors (red, yellow, green, blue, orange, purple, black, white), distinguish between shades (blue, pink, light green, etc.) and neutral colors (gray, gray-blue) .

Children should be able to show proportionally in a drawing. oe the ratio of two or three objects, arranging them according to the scheme: at the bottom - those that are on the ground, at the top - those that are in
air, in the sky; create a plot of five or six items.

Education for older children is aimed at improving visual skills and developing the ability to create expressive images using various means of representation.

The learning objectives are the following:
- teach how to correctly convey the shape of an object, its characteristics, relative size and position of parts;
- teach the transfer of simple movements in drawing;
- develop and improve the sense of color; technical skills in working with pencil (shading methods) and paints (brush techniques); teach drawing techniques with crayons, charcoal, and watercolors.

Children must use watercolor paints and a brush correctly, holding it at an angle and turning it on a plane; must be able to depict a person in a frontal static position and in motion, depict birds and animals both statically and in motion.

Children love to draw autumn.

In autumn, children should pay attention to the golden leaves of trees. At this age they already know about different types of trees And can draw them. Explain that the thickness of the barrel can be conveyed by gradually increasing the pressure on pile brushes, and a very thick trunk is painted by building up strokes. Each tree has a vertically directed trunk, thick and thin branches, and leaves on them that form a crown. These signs are also transmitted to children of the older group. Suggest children depict trees of certain species, placing them at some distance from each other. Suitable themes for children of the senior group are “Forest in autumn”, “Autumn park”, “Apple orchard in autumn*.

While working on the topic “Apple Orchard in Autumn*”, children should know that apple trees are different - low and tall, young and old, spreading with a thick trunk and slender With thin branches pointing upward. Fruits can be green, yellow, red. Particular attention should be paid to placing images of trees on the sheet.

Program material in the second quarter becomes more complex. Children should reproduce in their drawings pictures of winter nature, snow-covered houses and trees, winter Games and entertainment, to draw objects that are more complex in shape and structure. The best paper for drawing on the theme “Trees covered with snow” is blue. The teacher shows how to apply white paint (snow) to tree branches with the tip of a brush.

Spruce drawing.

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper with brown and green paint. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches and thin for the needles.

Explanation:

We don’t indicate where the spruce grows, we immediately draw the trunk. I take a wide brush and draw a straight line with brown paint at the end with pressure, from the top point I draw another similar line next to it and so on several times to get a beautiful, straight trunk. Now I paint the branches with a medium brush. The technique is the same as in the middle group. At the top 2 are small up, the rest are long to the sides. The spruce branches have “legs” - small branches, I’ll draw them under the big ones (show). Now we paint the pine needles with green paint and a thin brush.

We decorate the New Year tree with a garland and draw a stand under it. In this group we give images of fir trees near and far. Please note that here the branches are not painted separately with brown paint, but the spreading paws are painted immediately with green paint.

Drawing trees of different species

We will draw varieties of trees. Pay special attention to the fact that if children in the older group, even after repeated observations, draw poorly, then this work should be transferred to the preparatory group, since this material is very difficult for children.

Pine

If children have mastered the technique of drawing fir trees well, they can be taught to draw pine trees.

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper, gouache, palette. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches, thin for the needles.

Explanation:

The pine has a beautiful, even trunk of light brown, golden color, because pine really loves light and sun. Create this color on the palette. The technique for drawing a trunk is the same as for spruce. Pay attention to the branches, they grow to the sides of the trunk, alternately on one side and the other, the branches are short at the top, longer at the bottom. There were also branches below, but they all lacked light and sun, and they broke off, leaving only small twigs. Pine needles are emerald, long and fluffy. Using a thin brush, make long strokes from the branch in different directions.

Birch

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper with white and black paint. We give 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

The birch has a beautiful trunk - I paint the trunk with a wide brush of white paint, just as we painted the trunk of other trees. The birch tree has black specks on its trunk, we will paint them later when the white paint has dried. Birch is called curly birch. Its branches are beautiful, elastic, and bent down. I take a medium brush and use black paint to paint thick branches from the trunk on one side and the other, starting from the top. And from the thick branches come thin ones, like garlands, descending down. The birch trunk has dried up, now let’s decorate it with black dots. Remember, when we looked at it, we noted that the trunk was very black at the bottom and there were fewer dots at the top.

We draw a birch tree at different times of the year: snowy in winter and green in spring (we draw the outline of the crown and dotted leaves in a raw way).

Apple tree

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper, gouache, palette. We give 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

I paint the trunk with a wide brush and dark brown paint. The drawing technique is the same. Now I will paint the crown with a medium-thick brush. The crown of the apple tree is like a bowl. Large branches grow from the bowl towards the sun, and small ones on them. Because the apple tree has such a crown it is called spreading. I paint the leaves of the apple tree by dabbing, with the end of the brush pointing upward.

You can also give the theme “Apple tree in bloom” - with pink paint we paint the flowers with curls, but we don’t paint the leaves.

Drawing varieties of trees in the older group can only be taught if the children have high technical skills. In case of difficulties in the senior group, it is better to leave drawing a tree according to the method of the middle group and teach drawing a birch; the rest should be taught in the preparatory group.

It’s good to draw branches of trees and shrubs with leaves or flowers (willows, mimosa, spruce, poplar) from life.

It is more difficult to draw such objects than objects that have regular geometric shapes with a symmetrical structure. Complex construction a plant in which the leaves are attached in bunches, the branches have many branches, the children of the older group will not be able to convey, but they can see and draw some leaves raised up and others lowered.

This task is carried out starting from the first quarter, for example, in the depiction of various trees. Each tree has a vertically directed trunk, thick and thin branches, and leaves on them that form a crown. These signs are also transmitted to children of the older group. In the preparatory group they are taught to see and draw trees of different species, where all these general signs somewhat peculiar: in a fir tree the trunk gradually narrows upward and ends with a thin, sharp tip, while in deciduous trees it also narrows, but at the top it branches and ends with many small branches; the birch has thick branches going up, and long thin branches hang down, and the linden has thin branches located parallel to the ground.

Preparatory group.

The objectives of training in the preparatory group are the following:
-teach the image of structure, size, proportions, characteristic features objects from nature and from representation;
- teach how to convey a wealth of shapes and colors, create expressive images;
-develop compositional skills (location of an object on a sheet depending on the nature of the shape and size of the object);
-develop a sense of color (the ability to convey different shades of the same color);
-develop technical skills (the ability to mix paints to obtain various colors and their shades;
-apply pencil strokes or brush strokes according to the shape of the object).
Six-year-old children have fairly well developed analytical thinking. They can highlight both common features inherent in objects of the same type, and individual characteristics that distinguish one object from another.
This task is carried out starting from the first quarter, for example, in the depiction of various trees. Children in the pre-school group should know: to draw a tree, you first need to draw thin lines indicating the basic shape and size, draw the direction and shape of the branches, and then the exact outline of the tree. Then add foliage and small parts, after which the drawing is colored. Each tree has a vertically directed trunk, thick and thin branches, and leaves on them that form a crown. These signs are also transmitted to children of the older group. In the preparatory group they are taught to see and draw trees of different species, where all these common features are somewhat unique: in a fir tree the trunk gradually narrows upward and ends with a thin sharp tip, while in deciduous trees it also narrows, but at the top it branches and ends with many small branches; the birch has thick branches going up, and long thin branches hang down, and the linden has thin branches located parallel to the ground.
There are bent trees, with forked trunks, young and old. The ability to see this diversity and convey it in a drawing develops in children the ability to create expressive images of nature.
The same diversity in conveying the features of an object is reinforced in topics on the depiction of vegetables, fruits, etc. For this, children in the first quarter become familiar with obtaining shades of color and composing new colors.
Preschoolers master the ability to convey the characteristic features of the structure and shape of objects by drawing from life a variety of objects, initially simple in shape and structure: Christmas tree and pine branches, fish, birds, dolls. Twigs with leaves, flowers, berries, toys and other various small objects can be used as nature in the preparatory group. The close location of nature more often attracts the child’s attention to it: he compares it with a drawing.
Moreover, the value of such an “individual” nature is that it allows one to focus attention on its characteristic features. The teacher selects a homogeneous nature with slight variations: on one branch there are 3 branches, on the other - 2, on one - all the leaves look up, and on the other - in different directions. Children’s attention is drawn to this difference when explaining the task and analyzing nature; They are invited to draw their twig so that they can recognize it later. At the end of the lesson there may be interesting analysis searching from a drawing of nature or from the nature of a drawing. Here children's attention to all details increases.
Drawing from nature helps develop a sense of composition when conveying space. Children very quickly master the ability to arrange objects in a large space near and far when drawing from life surrounding nature. For example, from the window they look with the teacher at the space between two trees: close to the children there is a lawn, behind it is a river, then a field, and where the sky seems to meet the ground, a narrow strip of forest is visible, where you can’t even make out individual trees . Children begin to draw, moving from nearby to distant objects, starting from the bottom edge of the sheet. It becomes clear to them what drawing in a wide space means. The void between earth and sky disappears.
The expressiveness of the drawing largely depends on the chosen vertical or horizontal position sheet of paper. To successfully cope with this choice, the child must very carefully analyze the object in various turns and note the features of its structure.
In the preparatory group, children begin drawing with a preliminary sketch, in which the main parts are outlined first, and then the details are specified. Using a sketch forces the child to carefully analyze the nature, highlight the main thing in it, coordinate the details, and plan his work.

Drawing fir trees

We draw on tinted paper, gouache, palette - on it we will create different shades of green. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness for the branches, thin for the needles.

Explanation:

The drawing technique does not change. Drawing like in the older group. Only when depicting the needles do we pay attention to the fact that the upper branches are young, elastic and the greenery on them is bright, while the needles on the branches below are old and dark in color.

Drawing trees of different species.

Drawing trees in a landscape is different from just drawing trees. Since the structure of any tree is quite complex (many branches and twigs, and even more leaves.). then it is impossible to draw this mass separately, especially if the tree is located in the background. Here, when drawing, we proceed from the following rule: being away from the tree, we see only its general shape, without details. Each tree has a shape that is different from other trees, and you need to depict

We draw on tinted paper in two stripes, gouache, palette. We give 3 brushes: wide for the trunk, medium thickness and hard.

Explanation:

The oak is called a giant, its trunk is very thick, I will paint it with a wide brush with brown paint like this - I will draw a central line and “build up” the trunk on one side and the other. The trunk is thick, the oak is mighty, it stands firmly on the ground - the roots are visible. Using a medium brush, I paint the branches with brown paint. The branches have bent from time to time, they are old and thick. The oak tree does not have a crown like other trees. At the top the branches are curved and thick curved branches extend from the trunk. Small curved branches come off from the thick branches; I paint them with the tip of a brush. The greenery of the oak is transparent, carved, I will paint it with a hard glue brush “poke”.

Pine

In this group you can teach drawing a pine tree with colored pencils, but for children it is very difficult. Children also learn to draw a young pine tree.

We draw on two-stripe tinted paper, palette. We give 2 brushes: wide for the trunk and medium thickness for the needles.

Explanation:

Using a wide brush with light brown paint, I paint a short trunk. The technique is the same as when drawing fir trees. We pay special attention to the branches. I draw 2 small ones at the top, and then from the trunk I draw 2 branches up to the sun and from here 2 down. Now I paint the needles with the middle brush, the upper branches are young - the needles on them are light, bright, the lower branches are older - the needles are dark.

In this group you can show how to draw a crown without branches - with an outline.

Also at this age, children enjoy drawing various fairy-tale trees.

The image of a person is the most difficult thing to develop fine arts children - preschoolers, which, gradually becoming more complex, occupies a place in children's drawings throughout preschool childhood.

Children whose attention and visual memory are poorly developed are lost. Basically, in the drawings of children, people stand with their arms outstretched helplessly and their legs spread apart. And only talented, gifted children can convey movement.

Everything is natural and very nice for a certain period, but there must be development! I have learned from experience and believe that drawing a person should be introduced into work with children as early as possible. Little children are not yet afraid of making mistakes, they like everything, and drawing a person in children’s drawings occupies one of the most preferred places in their visual arts. But the quantity and quality of images of people directly depends on how the child (especially the older preschool age) knows how to do this.

In order for a child to convey his plans in a drawing, he must have visual and technical skills. Often, a child, dissatisfied that his image is not done at the proper level, may simply refuse to draw human figures. Experience shows that due to difficulties in depicting a person, children try to avoid depicting the image of a person in their own creative activity. Based on this, it is necessary to teach children how to draw a person, showing a variety of ways to depict them. And for the teacher, the primary task should be to teach children to depict a person in accordance with his age capabilities and individual abilities

Children begin to try their hand at graphic representation human figures shortly after three years. At this time, they use several basic strokes with which they can portray a person: mom, dad or another family member. The child draws the figure according to the same pattern: “Stick, stick, cucumber, here comes the little man!” The conclusion suggests itself: for there to be development, systematic, planned training is necessary.

Teaching preschool children to depict a person is a complex and painstaking process, requiring the teacher to be able to take into account a number of requirements and create necessary conditions For children's creativity. Pedagogical guidance should be aimed not only at teaching the art of depicting a portrait, but also at developing perception and imagination. In other words, it is necessary to teach children to see and perceive, gradually bring them to the understanding that their image can express different contents and the management of the process should be aimed, first of all, at the development of aesthetic perception, at the figurative reflection of their impressions in the drawing with certain visual means. It is necessary to find pedagogical techniques that can arouse interest in drawing a person, emotions, and the imagination of children, intensify the drawing process, evoke a desire to evaluate the drawing, and find elements of expressiveness in it.

A child in the world around him does not catch everything that his eyes see, therefore, in classes on developing the ability to portray a person, it is necessary to teach children observation skills in order to more fully and truthfully convey the characteristic features and traits of the person being depicted.

In progress educational work V in this direction Children develop an understanding of the created image, the beauty and expressiveness of a portrait drawing.

In addition to all that has been said, a child’s free and creatively created image of the human world will not only allow him to experience the joy of creativity, the joy of creating expressive images, but also, finally, it will help him more easily enter into real relationships with the people around him, that is, it will provide one of the ways to carry out the process of socialization of a preschool child. Drawings by older preschoolers show their interest in both social problems and the life history of their people.

It is also important that children of senior preschool age will soon go to school, and practice shows that a first-grader who does not know how to portray a person will find it quite difficult to create “lively”, bright works for which the teacher will give a positive mark, which in turn is the main motive for a child - a first grader.

Middle group.

Children, look at each other. Do you see that the upper lip is different in shape from the lower? On upper lip as if there were two waves, and on the bottom one (draw lips). We draw ears and hair.

In the preparatory group we introduce children to the human structure. Consider the structure of the human figure and the proportional relationship of parts. The figure shows that when determining proportions, any part of the body, usually the head (its height), is taken as a scale unit. The height of the entire human figure is 7-8 scale units (including the head). The dimensions of the length of the body and head together are approximately equal to the length of the legs. The arms are one unit longer than the body (reach mid-thigh). The arm to the elbow is longer than the forearm; The elbow is at waist level (about halfway across the body). The width of the figure at the shoulders is approximately two units. The legs are divided into two equal parts at the knees.

Let's consider one of the ways to draw a person in motion. Theme: “Ski trip”. One of the methods drawing - drawing ovals. We draw an oval - the torso to the waist, an oval - the pelvic part. Then we will draw ovals - legs up to the knee, from the knee - ovals, ovals - feet. Then we will draw the arms, first finding the place of the shoulder. We draw the hands in the same way: an oval up to the elbow, an oval after the elbow. The elbow is at waist level, the palm is an oval. And finally - the head. We find a place for the neck and draw the head. Then, using a smooth line, we assemble the pattern and dress it. After you have drawn a pencil sketch, use an eraser to erase the auxiliary lines. Let's start working in color.

In the middle group, children learn to draw a “matryoshka doll”. The head is depicted, with an extended sundress towards the bottom. “Snow Maiden” - head, widened fur coat towards the bottom, arms from the shoulder. By the end of the year, the image becomes more complex, you can add the “raised hand” movement.

In the older group, children are encouraged to draw in more detail. Can you suggest a drawing diagram from geometric shapes, head drawing diagram.

Invite children to look at a doll or child in beautiful clothes. Clarify by asking children the shape of the dress, head, arms, legs, their location and size. Facial proportions: the head is oval in shape. To depict the face, the head is divided by transverse lines into three parts: from the top to the brow ridges, from the brow ridges to the tip of the nose, and from the end of the nose to the end of the chin. The teacher draws an oval of the face on the board, marks auxiliary lines, explaining that they are noticeable, shows how eyes are drawn, the distance between the eyes is small, no more than one eye, inside the eye there is a colored circle and a small pupil. Asks what is above the eyes (eyebrows). He further explains that a person’s nose is the same color as their face, so you only need to draw the tip of the nose. You can draw the tip of the nose with a short line or depict nostrils. From the tip of the nose to the end of the face, the lips are in the middle.

Children begin drawing from the cone-shaped body.

First topic: “Girl in a long fur coat.”

This topic is divided into two lessons.

1 lesson

Gouache – blue and flesh-colored (pink), wide brush.

Explanation:

I take a brush and paint the girl’s head with pink paint – it’s round. Now I will paint the girl’s long fur coat with blue paint. I step back a little from the head and draw a triangle. The fur coat has sleeves, like spruce branches, I paint with one downward movement of the brush. The girl has a hat on her head. To draw eyes, lips, nose, you can give a pencil or felt-tip pen. The teacher himself can draw: “Let’s bring your girl to life.”

Lesson 2

If the children did a good job, then we give them white paint and offer to draw the edge of the fur coat and hat. If it doesn’t turn out well enough, you can invite all or some of the children to draw a friend for the girl. “You and I have already drawn a girl in a long fur coat, let’s draw a friend for her so that she won’t be bored.”

Lesson 3 – “Bear”

To make it easier for children to draw a naked doll in the next lesson, we first teach them how to draw a bear.

Gouache – brown, black, 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

I take a brush and use brown paint to paint a bear with a round head. To make the bear have an oval body, I will draw 2 circles - one under the other and then connect them, I will get an oval - the body of the bear. I will draw small ears on the head. Now I’ll draw oval paws - 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom (show). When the paint dries, paint the eyes and nose with black paint.

Lesson 4 – “Nude Doll”

Gouache - yellow, red, black. 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

We draw it in the same way as a bear, but we immediately draw the body oval. Oval arms and legs. Instead of ears we draw hair. Let's draw panties. When the paint dries, we bring the doll to life - draw eyes, a nose, and a mouth.

Lesson 5 – “Doll in a red dress”

Gouache – yellow, red, black. 2 brushes: wide and medium thickness.

Explanation:

We draw it the same way as a naked doll, but we dress it in a dress (triangle).

Senior and preparatory groups

A simple pencil.

We draw a person according to the diagram.

Explanation:

To make it easier for you to learn how to draw a person, I will teach you first to draw a diagram, and then from it - a little man. A person has a round head - draw a circle. Short neck - draw a vertical line. Now I draw a horizontal line - this is the line of the shoulders, it is wider than the head. Now I’ll draw a longer vertical line - this is the line of the body, it is equal to the size of two heads. Below I will draw the line of the hips, it is equal to the line of the shoulders. On the body I will mark the waist line, it is equal to half the shoulder line. Now from the shoulders I will draw a line of the arms obliquely to the line of the hips. From the line of the hips we draw the lines of the legs; they are longer than the torso.

Several lessons are devoted to drawing diagrams until all children have mastered it, since this is the basis of the basics.

"Man on the Move"

A simple pencil.

Explanation:

In the first lesson, we draw the same diagram as usual, but mark the bend points on the arms and legs. Then we show how to draw a diagram to convey movement. To convey movement, you can use a child to show the direction of the lines of the arms and legs.

"Man on the move." Of course, it’s not easy to draw a person in motion, if there was only one way to draw, because we are all so different and perception surrounding reality We all have different things too. Fortunately, there are several ways of drawing and everyone can choose the most suitable one for themselves. Today we will talk about three ways to depict the figure of a moving person.

First schematic drawing - traditional drawing, where we draw a person’s body with straight lines and then “dress” them in clothes.

1)2)

The second way is to draw with ovals. With this method, we convey the proportions of the human body using ovals of different sizes.

The third method is drawing with arcs, where we can depict a human figure using arcs, long and short, inverted various directions.

For all methods, without exception, you need a basic understanding of the proportions of the human body, which we will later study on the multimedia slide.

Explanation:

And so, we take the first sheet of paper and outline with a pencil, a barely noticeable line, the size of our person. Then, using lines, we depict the human skeleton, taking into account its proportions and the inclination of the torso, head, as well as the position of the arms and legs. Having drawn a diagram, we “dress” a person in clothes. Schematic illustration, is traditionally and well known to everyone, so it does not cause any difficulties.

To master the method of drawing with ovals, take Blank sheet.

The entire drawing of a person consists of seven ovals the size of his head. That is full height of a person will be equal to seven circles, in one of which you will draw the head and neck. With the help of such a scheme, the proportions of the drawing will be strictly observed. The main thing is to draw the ovals the same. Let's try to make a drawing standing man and make the markings as on the slide, namely for the head and neck, shoulders and collarbone, chest, abdomen, legs and arms. Apply all these parts of the body to the previously prepared diagram, separately. First, on a drawing of a person, you need to draw an oval for the head, then an oval for the shoulders and circles for the joints. Next, draw two ovals placed on top of each other, the higher oval should be larger than the lower oval, this will be the chest and stomach of the person. Then you need to draw an oval for the hips, and then two ovals attached to the hips, these are the person's knees. The next step is to draw the legs and outlines for the arms as shown in my drawing. Now all that remains is to draw the general shape of the person’s torso and get the outline of a standing person. This is a very simple method, but it is very effective for those who have never drawn a person and helps to maintain exactly his proportions in the drawing. General form It won't be difficult for you to draw a human body. Just trace all these ovals and circles with a pencil. The line can be very approximate, because the person in the picture is standing in clothes. remove all the extra contour lines and draw the clothes of the person

paper and draw the coordinate axis with very thin lines. Having stepped back equal segments from the horizontal axis up and down, we mark the height of a person with dots (both halves are the same size). Now we divide the lower part into two halves, these are the human knees. We also divide the upper part into two halves; this line separates the chest from the torso.

Method three, drawing with arcs. Let's take a blank sheet of paper and try to draw, for example, a figure skater. We put a point just above the middle of the sheet (neck), draw two lines down from it, the arcs are wide at first, but gradually narrowing down, the lines are parallel. Then we draw two arcs upward, according to the same principle (hand), see the direction of the lines on the slide. We draw two arcs in the same way parallel to the lower lines, but a little more curved and a little shorter (the second leg in perspective). From the point where we started the drawing, we outline an oval (head), all that remains is to work out the small details, arms, skates, hair, dress. Middle-aged children can easily cope with this drawing, it is so simple.

So, in practice, we have mastered three types of images of a person in motion; if you wish and for the purpose of drawing, you can use all the skills and techniques of drawing in one image.

There is a wide variety of trees in nature, as well as a wide variety of animals or birds. All this huge variety is classified according to different criteria. But features are important for an artist appearance tree. And in order to learn how to draw it, you need to observe the shape of the trunk, the shape of the branches, leaves, and the shape of the entire crown of the tree. After all, each breed has its own characteristics. Therefore, we will discuss these features in 6 types of trees - maple, birch, pine, spruce, willow and oak (but I recommend reading first).

Maple.

  • The maple trunk can bend and branch, which gives it a sinuous shape.
  • The bark is dark in color and generally similar to the bark of most trees.
  • The top of the crown of this tree is rounded, but may also have an irregular shape.
  • The maple leaf is known to have a pointed shape, similar to a star. Large masses maple leaves create a “spiky” texture of the crown surface.
  • When shading the crown, you can also use longitudinal strokes, but to show the character of maple foliage, it is better to add a “clumsy” or “prickly” textured stroke to the drawing, similar to maple leaves (I wrote about the texture of shading). The same principle should be followed in painting, painting the canvas with strokes that would create the illusion of foliage. Considering that leaves and branches are combined into separate groups, the texture of shading and painterly strokes should be varied.

Birch

  • Birch comes in different varieties. In the middle zone, the trunk of birches is usually straight and “slender”. In other areas, a birch trunk can form a “slingshot”, bifurcating at the root.
  • The crown of a birch often has an elongated shape, directed upward. However, there are also birches with a spreading, squat crown.
  • Birch bark is white on the surface. But it has dark “strokes”, which are essentially cracks through which the dark inner layer is visible. The closer to the ground, the more often these “strokes” appear on the bark. “Black lines” are present on the trunk at the base of the branches, i.e. in those places of the trunk from where the branches grow. They can have a triangular or rectilinear shape.
  • Small branches of birches are so thin and flexible that they hang down, rushing down. The leaves growing on these branches form vertically directed rows. Branches bending towards the ground bend, giving the appearance of birches special thrill and lightness.
  • In pencil drawing or painting, the graceful character of birch trees can be conveyed by longitudinal vertical shading or appropriate strokes of paint. Pencil movements or brush movements can follow the movement of the branches described above.

Pine

  • The pine trunk is straight. However, there are pine trees with a trunk that bends at the top and have a “stocky” character. Often there are ship pines in which the crown is located at the top of the tree and the trunk is straight and tall.
  • The bark of this tree has a red color, which, as it approaches the ground, becomes much darker, turning into gray-brown. In the middle of the trunk, the pine bark resembles a flaky, scaly structure. Closer to the ground it becomes coarser and forms a dense, cracking layer.
  • The crown of young pines has a triangular, cone-shaped shape. But the crown of mature trees will already be more rounded.
  • The branches of perennial old pine trees can be twisted and gnarled. As a rule, pine branches do not point very upward. To a greater extent they are directed to the sides of the trunk.
  • Pine needles are longer than spruce needles. Therefore, they create the feeling of a fluffy crown, which needs to be displayed by graphic means, or painting techniques, if this is not a drawing, but a painting. It is necessary to use a textured stroke or appropriate strokes in painting. Each branch has light and shadow, so the artist needs to think about how to draw the volume of individual branches in the overall mass of the crown.

  • Spruce and pine have much in common, but they are different trees with their own characteristics. For example, if the trunk of a spruce tree is as straight as that of a pine tree, then the nature of the branches will already differ from the nature of pine branches. The branches of the spruce are slightly curved upward. In the lower tiers, the old branches are lowered down and resemble “paws”.
  • Spruce needles are shorter than pine needles, so the overall texture of the crown of this tree will differ from that of pine.
  • The crown of the spruce tree is shaped like a triangle or a cone and consists of tiers.
  • When an artist paints a landscape, he paints trees in volume. To do this, you need to monitor how the entire tree is illuminated and how individual branches or tiers of branches are illuminated. For example, going inside the crown, the spruce “paw” plunges into the shadow. From the outside, it can remain light because it receives more daylight.
  • The color of spruce needles is dark and rich. Therefore, both individual spruce trees and the spruce forest as a whole will differ in color from other types of trees.

  • Willow trees can look different depending on the variety. For example, the weeping willow has branches that are more flexible and flexible than the common willow. Because of this, its branches hang down, rushing to the ground.
  • Willow is characterized by constant branching of the trunk, as well as large branches.
  • Willow leaves are narrow and oblong. This greatly affects the appearance of the tree. Therefore, this feature must be reflected through shading or brushwork in painting.
  • The color of willow foliage is complex. On one side of the leaf the color is green. And on the other - light, gray-green. That's why general color wood has gray-blue shades.

  • The oak trunk is powerful. In old trees it can reach a large diameter at the base. But in dry areas, oaks can be less stocky, looking like slender young oaks.
  • The branches and trunk of the oak tree are twisted and gnarled.
  • The shape of the leaves is wavy. That's why general form the foliage as a whole will be “gnarled and curly.”
  • The bark is rough and dense.
  • The foliage color is dark green, rich.

Here I looked at the appearance features of only six varieties of trees. In nature there are a huge variety of trees and other plants. How can you learn to draw, if not all of them, then at least a couple of dozen varieties? To do this you need to develop observation skills. If an artist has a good eye and good powers of observation, then it doesn’t matter what he draws. The main thing is to understand nature and notice key points. And what points you need to pay attention to are discussed in educational material. For those who want to learn how to draw landscapes with trees well, it will also be useful to study the diagrams and technique called (I mentioned it at the beginning of this article).


Before you draw a tree for your child step by step, you need to carefully study these natural objects and find similarities between them.

What does any, well, almost any tree have? The answer suggests itself - a straight and powerful trunk. As a rule, from below it is quite thick and voluminous, but the closer to the top of the tree, the thinner it becomes. It is from the trunk that branches go in all directions, while the main ones rush upward.

Closer to the base, the branches are long, and towards the top, on the contrary, they are short. From large skeletal branches smaller branches grow in different directions, from them even smaller ones, etc. The crown of almost all trees directly depends and is formed from such branches. Considering all these facts, you can easily draw the “skeleton” of a tree.

Important: you can depict trees in winter in a similar way - just branches, without foliage.

Interested? Then let's look in more detail at how to draw a tree with a pencil step by step for children. Believe me, it will be very educational and also interesting.

How to draw a tree: general diagram

First of all, let’s decorate the “skeleton” of the tree with leaves. You can create them simple dots, making a leafy crown from individual points (Figure A). As for coloring, for a summer tree it is better to use several shades of yellow or green; the autumn version can be done using red, yellow, orange or green paints.

In addition, most children can easily depict a certain plane with an irregular, oval-like shape (Figure B). This method is ideal for teaching drawing to kids. It will also be useful in in this case drawing trees in a landscape. First draw one trunk and skeletal thick branches. Now paint over the green part of the tree and add small branches.

Foliage image options

As mentioned above, we draw a tree “in principle,” that is, an image familiar to most of us. Naturally, in nature, different types of trees differ significantly from each other. In our drawing there will also be a difference in the trunks: a powerful and thick giant oak, pine or rowan, a weeping slender birch with drooping branches. What exactly to depict is up to you.

Simple tree: drawing lesson for children from 4 years old

It's actually very easy, but interesting way draw a tree. Of course, it is impossible to determine its type. Yes, this is not required here. The main thing is that we know for sure that the tree is deciduous.

1. Together with your child, draw a trunk and several voluminous, large branches. The foliage must be made in the shape of an oval.

2. Color your drawing with colored pencils, markers or paints. Everything depends only on your imagination.

At first glance, it seems that such a drawing is very simple and ordinary, however, it provides rich soil for creativity and allows you to embody the most original ideas. Take a close look at the picture below and see for yourself what variety of trees you can draw using this technique.

Oak - step-by-step execution with children from 6 years old

This oak is somewhat reminiscent of an ordinary tree, which we have already considered. However, there are much more individual details: complex branches, bark texture and hollow. Don't worry if your child makes the lesson easier or misses something. The main goal is for the tree to be powerful and stocky.

We draw a birch tree with children from 8 years old step by step

For many children, drawing a tree like this is difficult task. Why? Here everything is as close as possible to a realistic image, there are complex lines and details. Therefore, you should not draw a birch for preschoolers, as well as for those who study in primary school. Most likely they will try to simplify the drawing.

Draw your child's attention to the birch branches - they are leaning down!

Pine: step-by-step implementation with children from 8 years old

Now let's leave deciduous trees and move on to conifers. Tell your children, if they don't already know, that the pine tree is an evergreen tree. Therefore, it makes no difference what time of year you paint it: summer or winter - the crown is always the same. To draw pine trees, the same principle is used as for deciduous trees. The only difference is that the green needle spots must be clearly connected to the branches. In addition, unlike deciduous trees, this tree has a more voluminous “bare” part of the trunk.

Christmas tree - a simple drawing diagram for children from 4 years old

Draw another, no less popular and well-known conifer tree There are several ways to grow a Christmas tree at once. But we will consider only one - a coniferous and very realistic tree for adult children. You can see the drawing in the picture below.

And now an unusual option - we draw a palm tree with children from 7 years old

So, earlier we learned how to draw trees that grow in our country. Now it's time for more exotic plants. For example, it is very interesting to draw a palm tree - a decorative, simple, but at the same time, original tree. Translated from Latin, palm means “palm” - “palma”. Apparently this is due to the palm leaves spread out like “fingers”.

We will present two main options for drawing this tree: the first is a more realistic image, the second is, one might say, “cartoonish”. The difficulty of completing both drawings is approximately the same. Children from 7 to 8 years old can easily cope with this task, of course, not without the help of their parents.

Option No. 1 - a diagram of drawing a palm tree with children from 7 years old in several steps.

Option No. 2

OK it's all over Now. Now you have personally seen that drawing a tree is easy. And it doesn’t matter what exactly you want to depict: oak, birch, palm tree, etc. The main thing is to believe in own strength and, of course, show a little imagination. Below we provide additional materials.

Before you start drawing trees step by step with your children, carefully examine these natural objects and find common features. What is characteristic of any (or almost any) tree? Of course, this is a powerful and straight barrel. The trunk is thick at the bottom, but the closer to the top, the thinner it becomes. Branches extend from the trunk in all directions. Usually the main branches are directed upwards. At the base the branches are long, closer to the top they are short. From large skeletal branches smaller branches extend in different directions, from them even smaller ones, etc. It is these small branches that form the crown of trees. The “skeleton” of the tree is ready. In this way you can depict winter trees- no foliage, just twigs.

Step-by-step drawing of trees with children - a generalized scheme for drawing a tree.
We will dress the “skeleton” of the tree with leaves. You can draw them in dots, creating a mass of foliage from individual dots (tree A). When coloring foliage, it is better to take several shades of green and even yellow color for a summer tree. And for autumn - yellow, red, orange and green colors.
But it is even easier for children to depict a certain plane of an irregular shape close to an oval (tree B). This method is interesting to use when drawing with young children, or depicting trees in a landscape. In this case, first draw only the trunk and thick skeletal branches, and add small branches after painting the area green.


Options for drawing foliage - step-by-step drawing of trees with children
This is a tree “in general”. But of course, different types trees will be very different. And, first of all, in our drawing there will be a difference in the trunks. A thick and powerful oak-hero, a slender weeping birch with drooping branches, a rowan or a pine - compare the trunks of these trees with children.


Trunks of various trees.

A very simple tree - step-by-step drawing with children from 4 years old.

This is really a very simple way to draw a tree. Of course, it is unlikely to be able to determine its species. It is only clear that this tree is deciduous. Here we depict with the children only a trunk and a few large branches. Foliage is oval. You can color such a drawing not only with pencils and paints, but even with felt-tip pens.

This oak tree is similar to the simple tree we drew above. But still, much more detail has been added here. This is a hollow, and the texture of the bark, and branches of complex shape. It's okay if your child leaves something out and simplifies the drawing. If his oak tree turns out to be powerful and stocky, then artistic purpose will be achieved!

Birch – step-by-step drawing of trees with children from 8 years old.

Drawing such a tree for children is quite a difficult task. This image is already close to a realistic image, replete with details and complex lines. Therefore, such work is not suitable for preschoolers. And younger schoolchildren will most likely simplify this drawing. Draw the children's attention to the position of the birch branches - they are leaning down.

Pine – step-by-step drawing of trees with children from 6 years old.

We move from deciduous trees to conifers. Remind the children that pine is an evergreen tree. Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether you draw it in a winter or summer setting - the crown will always be the same. Pine is drawn according to the same principle as deciduous trees, but the green spots-needles need to be clearly “tied” to the branches. And the “bare” part of the trunk of this tree is much larger than that of deciduous trees.

Palma – step-by-step drawing of trees with children from 7 years old.

Before this, we gave diagrams for drawing trees that grow everywhere in our country. Now let's look at the exotic palm tree. A fairly simple and decorative tree for drawing with children is a palm tree. The name "palm" comes from Latin word“palma”, which means “palm”. Such associations were obviously born from palm leaves spread out like fingers.
We present two options for drawing this tree. The first one is more “cartoonish”, the second one is more realistic. In terms of difficulty, both drawings are approximately the same. They can be recommended for working with children aged 7-8 years.
