Look at pictures on the theme of space. Drawing in non-traditional technique “Space”

We meet any event prepared! But it seems to me that for many children, Cosmonautics Day is not “any” holiday, but the most favorite one. Some kids dream of becoming an astronaut, others think that when they grow up, everything will be like in science fiction films, where Space has been conquered and any interstellar travel will be real. And others simply love stars, love to look at them.

This means it’s time to start preparing for the most unusual day for toddlers. And on the agenda. I will show you the options, and you and your little one will choose what to draw. And go to posts with, there are a lot of simple and interesting crafts.

It is impossible to imagine traveling to other Galaxies without Ships! Our kids will become designers of an interstellar flotilla! Will it be difficult for a child to do a rocket? It's not difficult at all if we show you how to do it. Then our child will even be able to complete the task independently and draw a rocket with a felt-tip pen or pencil in kindergarten.

But the baby will be able to paint the finished picture without our help.

And if you add a little context: stars, the Sun, planets, then everything will become very, very realistic!

I like this drawing in the notebook:

Astronaut

In order for the Astronaut to turn out “like a real one,” we must tell our children about his equipment, in which he goes into outer space and travels to uncharted planets. Why do you need a pressurized spacesuit? How and what does an astronaut breathe in his huge jumpsuit? This is very interesting information. In addition, she is able to make the picture very believable.

As pressure drops, it becomes increasingly difficult for the human body to absorb oxygen; an ordinary person can be at an altitude of no more than 4-5 km without any problems. At high altitudes, it is necessary to add oxygen to the inhaled air, and from 7-8 km a person generally must breathe pure oxygen. Above 12 km, the lungs completely lose the ability to absorb oxygen - pressure compensation is required to rise to a greater altitude.

Spacesuits will help with this. A spacesuit is essentially a sealed bag in which excess pressure is created. It consists of two shells. It’s hard to come up with a better analogy than a soccer ball: a leather outer cover protects the inner rubber bladder from football players’ boots and ensures the ball’s geometric dimensions remain unchanged.

Now our astronaut is ready, all that remains is to color him. You can draw a rocket next to it and color it.

Of course, it would be nice to draw a background too.

Option for kids:

Alien

Here is the simplest master class. A 5-6 year old will be able to handle it quite well.

And a clear video lesson for children from 5 years old:

Stars, planets

But here you can’t do without a color scheme. By mixing red, blue, cyan, we get unique cosmic landscapes! If you use a sponge, you can make real clusters of stars, galaxies and other cosmic bodies. Comets look perfect against this background.

Another wonderful master class - planets in watercolor:

There is an amazing helper in this genre for all young artists - painting with watercolors on wet.

Then you will get amazing stains, multi-colored paints simply mix in a galactic way, creating the very patterns that (most likely))) astronauts see in outer space*. And if you sprinkle salt on top of the wet watercolor, you get a really interesting option.

BY THE WAY!!! Such background sketches are ideal not only as a view of the stars/planets, but also as a view FROM THE PLANET.

Just imagine our children/astronauts exploring a newly discovered system; landed on the planet, and this is the picture they see in front of them!

The picture at the top left is the red space from here.

We constantly collaborate with our little ones to create interesting and educational works. Join us, subscribe to articles, and you can spend productive time with your children! and, if you liked the article, tell your friends about it!

Wonderful ideas from the Internet of drawings on the theme of Space for inspiration.

In fact, in the vacuum of space there is absolute darkness. And all the pictures that we see are additionally decorated with spectral colors.

You can approach the task creatively and draw a space cat playing with a ball - the earth.

Every year at the beginning of April, schoolchildren are introduced to such a Russian holiday as Cosmonautics Day. This date is famous for the first human flight into space. To make it more interesting for children to study this topic, competitions are usually held for the best drawing for Cosmonautics Day. " What to draw for April 12? - This question interests many parents and their children.

I have collected for you a bunch of interesting and modern ideas for drawings that children of different ages, from elementary school to high school, can repeat. Some ideas are accompanied by step-by-step lessons. I hope you find it for yourself

What can you draw for Cosmonautics Day?

Cosmonaut

You will find how to draw an astronaut in four different versions in.

Space

There are a great many lessons on drawing space on the Internet, including step-by-step photo tutorials and videos. Most often, when painting space, watercolors are used, because... it is translucent and blends easily.

I like the videos on the channel TILLITH. She has a whole playlist on how to draw space.

Here is one of her videos:

There is also a step-by-step guide on my website.


Rocket

In a recent lesson I showed:


Satellite

I found how to draw an artificial satellite with colored pencils on the website prodelkino.ru.

Planets

It’s easy to draw a planet, but it always looks epic, especially if you color it beautifully.

Below is a step by step lesson how to draw a planet similar to Saturn.

Step 1

First draw a nice and large circle to illustrate the volume of the planet. Leave a little space on each side to then draw the rings.

Step 2

Now for the rings: Draw a long, thin oval shape in the center of the circle. You can tilt this shape (almost at a 45 degree angle) to make the planet look more attractive.

Step 3

Now transform the oval shape into a nice and edgy ring. Carefully erase the extra lines.

Step 4

Then add multiple lines on the planet to create different stripes of gas. You can also add a couple more rings.

Step 5

Use several colors in shades of orange and yellow. The combination of these colors will make the planet more realistic.

Step 6

The last step is to add shadows: one on the right side, one under the ring, and one behind the planet on the right side of the rings.

A beautiful, colorful and voluminous planet, drawn in just six simple steps, is ready!

Orbital station

You will find a lesson on drawing a station.

Space doodles

This direction in drawing arose not so long ago and now it is mega-popular. Verbatim doodle- these are dashes, scribbles, meaningless drawings that are created mechanically, thinking about something else. Drawing space objects in doodle style looks just right. I'll give you a few examples that you can easily repeat with a black helium pen. And if you then color the drawing, then you have every chance of taking first place in the competition for the best drawing for Cosmonautics Day!

I hope that you have found an interesting idea for drawing for Cosmonautics Day. Use your imagination and you will succeed!

Most boys dream of becoming astronauts, but girls are interested in what space looks like. To make it interesting for both, we suggest learning how to draw space in pencil or watercolor. Let us immediately note that the images are simple, as it may seem at first glance, so primary school students can easily handle the drawings.

Drawing space with pencils

Earlier in our articles, we described, Now we offer to learn how to draw space on paper. To begin with, we will start drawing with pencils. This image option is quite suitable for beginning artists and children of preschool and school age.

Let's draw:


These are the drawings on the theme of space that you can draw with pencils. If you follow the procedure and mix the shades of pencils correctly, you will get a wonderful picture with smooth transitions of shadows.

Space with planets in watercolor

We figured out how to draw space with pencils, but drawing with pencils is very difficult for beginners. So let's paint it with watercolors. Such works look no less beautiful, but the image process takes much less time, and even a preschool child can handle the creativity.

Before starting the creative process, arm yourself with:

  • watercolor;
  • brush;
  • water;
  • palette;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • salt;
  • objects with round bases or compasses.

Let's get creative:

  1. Take a brush and wet it with water. Cover the surface of the paper with liquid. Let the wet sheet sit for two minutes.
  2. Apply blue color to the brush. Paint the lower right corner and a small area in the middle. We wash the brush.
  3. We put on the brush blue, a tone darker than the previous one. We paint near the blue, as shown in the picture. We wash the brush.
  4. We take a black shade. We work with the lower left and upper corners. We wash the brush again. We dip it in dark green watercolor and paint the distance between the black top corner and the blue area. We figured out how to draw space, or more precisely part of an image.
  5. We select the previous color again. We use it along the entire circumference of the drawn shades. We complement it with a smooth transition with blue colors. Let's cover the area with black, as shown in the picture.
  6. Wash the brush. Paint the area at the bottom of the sheet red. Using purple, we cover part of the upper area. We complement the area with cherry blossoms with blue. After wetting the brush, smear it on the top painted corner.
  7. Using blue watercolor we outline the outline of the already depicted area. Draw in black the upper left corner and draw a line along the entire length of the upper side of the sheet. We dilute the image with blue paints to get a smooth transition of shades.
  8. We complement the sketch with a dark green tone. We make a smooth transition with Lilac. Blue, paint over the rest of the upper part. Finish the bottom left corner with black.
  9. We put a lot of black on the brush, bring it to the surface of the drawing and hit the brush with our fingers, so we get a lot of droplets, and the image will turn out more picturesque. We perform similar actions in red.
    Wet the brush and smear all the paints. This way we get smooth transitions of shades. We lift the sheet and tilt it in different directions and at different angles. So, the shades will mix well. These are the kind of children's drawings on the theme of space that preschool children can draw, but the drawing is not finished yet.
  10. Wash the brush and add white to the brush. We bring the brush to the background and tap it with our finger, while we move it over the entire background. We collect salt and sprinkle the surface in a small amount. We remove the remaining salt and put aside the work. Decorate a drawing on the theme of space with planets.

  11. Now, let's move on to the second part of our drawing. We will. On a white sheet of paper, using objects with a round base of different diameters, draw five different circles. Add rings to a medium-sized circle with a pencil.
  12. We cover one of the small circles with red, this will be Mars. We paint another circle with blue, dilute the paint with a green tone, and complement it with yellow color. On the planet with rings, draw orange stripes with a brush, as shown in the image.
  13. We complement the orange stripes with yellow ones. We put mixed yellow and orange on the brush and paint the ring of the planet. We cover part of the largest circle with dark yellow. We dilute it with brown paints. We draw our last planet in blue, dilute the color with a black tone and put yellow dots. Finally, sprinkle the image with salt.
  14. After the paints have dried, cut out the images along the contour with scissors. Shake off excess salt. We lay out the planets as you see them in space, if everything suits you, glue them into place.

These are the kind of children's drawings on the theme of space that a child of preschool and school age can draw. If this is your first time drawing, follow our step-by-step instructions to get the desired result.

The work is ideal if your child is starting to study a section at school about planets, or is simply interested in extraterrestrial spaces. Using the example of such a creative process, you can give him basic but interesting knowledge.

Space landscape in gouache

We figured out how to draw space with watercolors and pencils. In order not to stop there and consolidate the material studied, we suggest drawing a cosmic landscape in gouache.

To get a high-quality and very beautiful drawing we will need:

  • drawing sheet;
  • container with water;
  • brushes;
  • palette;
  • cloth;
  • round lid of appropriate size;
  • sponge.

Now, you can get to work. How our cosmic landscape is drawn:

  1. First of all, we choose the location of the planet. Having chosen an area, cover it with white gouache. We use a black tint. Paint over part of the white perimeter. We smear the colors with a brush, thus making a smooth transition.
  2. We put green on the sponge and begin to paint the upper part. We smear all the colors. Without wiping the green gouache from the sponge, pick up blue and paint over the green layer. Thus, part of a children’s drawing on a space theme is depicted.
  3. We cover the planet with a lid or a round object of a suitable size, as we will further depict outer space. We will do this with the same colors that were used to color the planet.
  4. Apply white paint along the contour of the lid. We dilute the white color with green, making a smooth transition. As the picture shows.
  5. Now, we connect the green color with the blue color. Paint the upper left corner black. We make a smooth transition from black to blue. We cover the bottom part of the planet with black.
  6. . You can simply put white paint on your brush and use your fingers to drip it onto the base of the dot. So, we get half a drawing on the theme of space. Let's continue creativity.
  7. We remove the cover from the planet. We work from a black outline that combines with blue. We depict sharp rocks with black paint, as in our picture.
    Mix green and turquoise with white. And we depict light reflections on the rocks. This can be done easily with a brush or a special device. We paint the lower part with white gouache.

  8. Below the white tone we depict unearthly vegetation. We do this with zigzag stripes, but you can use your imagination and come up with your own plants. Let's complement the green color with turquoise and yellow shades.
  9. We take black color and draw black stones immediately after the plants. Using white paints we depict light reflections on the stones. We paint small waterfalls between the stones with blue paints. You can choose their location yourself, or you can use our picture as a guide.
  10. We depict the lake in the lower part with light green color. After walking a few centimeters around the perimeter in green, we pick up the turquoise color of the paint and continue to depict the lake. It is important to make smooth transitions of tones with everything.
    We finish the drawing of the lake with black paints. Here is a children's drawing on the theme of space is ready, but to make the picture more beautiful, we will add white drops near the fall of the waterfalls.

Now, the work is completed.

After studying the material, you learned how to draw space with a pencil and watercolors. You've learned how to make a beautiful space landscape using gouache. All the drawings are simple, so elementary school students and preschool children can easily handle them. We invite you to familiarize yourself with materials that will tell you how to make children's crafts in and

Space exploration is possible with children of preschool and early school age. Kids are interested in everything. But since it is still difficult to scientifically tell them the entire theory of the starry sky, pictures, drawings, cartoons, games, coloring books, stories, poems, songs and even riddles about space for children will come to the aid of parents and educators. You can find all this on the website.
