7. How to draw a Christmas tree step by step. Christmas tree drawing

So far we have told you about the so-called. "traditional" techniques for drawing Christmas trees. Next, we will introduce the dear readers of our site to “non-traditional” techniques for drawing Christmas trees.

For example, it’s easy and simple to draw a Christmas tree using children’s handprints. In this way, you can do excellent teamwork for the New Year in a kindergarten group. The lights on the Christmas tree represent colorful fingerprints of children's fingers.

Modern young mothers on maternity leave with their babies devote a lot of time and effort to the early development of their children. Surely, they will also want to draw some simple drawing of a Christmas tree for the New Year together with their baby. We offer them this interesting option. Mom draws a schematic image of a New Year tree as in the photo below. The kid uses his finger to imprint colorful balls on the picture of a Christmas tree photo.


8. How to draw a Christmas tree photo. Christmas tree pencil drawing

Personally, we really like the drawings of Christmas trees as in the photo below. How to draw Christmas trees in this style? The crown of the tree is an elongated triangle, the top of the tree is slightly bent. You can decorate the New Year tree with both Christmas decorations and abstract patterns of your choice.

There is a little less than a month left until the New Year, we are preparing gifts and drawing cards. And you? If yes, then two Christmas trees are waiting for you in this lesson. Lovers of handicrafts feel especially inspired before the holidays, because their creative impulses can be channeled into making gifts and cards. Handmade cards, even the simplest ones, evoke very warm feelings among loved ones. And how grandmothers admire the creations of their grandchildren!

I won’t tell you how to make the card itself, but I will show you how to draw a Christmas tree for a card. More precisely, even 2 New Year trees. They are both quite simple, they can be drawn by both adults and children.

In the first case, the design of the Christmas tree is simpler and more understandable for children, and the decorations can be more complicated. You can decorate the Christmas trees in the newfangled doodling style, as I did, or in your own way.

Herringbone silver

It is silver because I drew on the card with silver markers and an outline. But more on that later.

I didn't use a pencil for drawing. Look at the diagram to understand how to draw a Christmas tree step by step. Before drawing on a postcard, you can practice drawing with a pencil or marker. In my case, the blue training herringbone was made with a regular thin marker.

In the diagram, each new step is marked in red.

For four tiers, you need to mark 5 dividing points vertically in the middle of the future Christmas tree. Don't forget to leave some free space at the top and bottom. If you plan to draw a high tip on the top of the head, then leave more space.

Imagine how the lines expand from the top point down, forming a triangle. By the way, if it is more convenient for you to make a preliminary border for the Christmas tree, then mark the triangle with a pencil. We draw the upper tier, but not as a triangle, but as a bell, slightly bending the corners of the base upward and lowering the lower border in the center in an arc.

We draw the remaining tiers like skirts, also raising the corners and lowering the lower border in an arc. All that remains is to draw the tip and the leg (optional).

So our form is ready, which can now be filled with different patterns. If desired, the Christmas tree can be continued to be “extended” downwards in tiers.

My Christmas trees are filled with different doodles - circles, curls, flowers, in free form, asymmetrically. And around it I drew curls and snowballs to make it more elegant.

You now know how to draw a simple Christmas tree.

Children also enjoy drawing such a Christmas tree. They can be asked to draw a Christmas tree with colored markers or pencils. Of course, in this case you need to draw all the “skirts” with a simple pencil, and only then start coloring. The section contains ready-made coloring pages for Christmas trees for children of different ages, as well as templates for coloring Christmas trees in the doodling style.

Postcard with a silver Christmas tree in doodart style

Now I’ll tell you about the postcard. I took dark thick paper with a beautiful texture from the album. I marked the size of the card and cut it out. Dark paper is a little fussy. Therefore, before drawing, I washed and dried my hands, so as not to leave fingerprints, and placed a sheet of paper under my hand. I marked the points with a pencil and then with a white marker. I did not draw the borders of the Christmas tree, because erasing the pencil with an eraser leaves marks on the paper that spoil the whole look.

Next, I drew branches with a white marker (here from ZIG). I filled them with silver patterns made with a gel pen. And I added a few more special effects, which, unfortunately, are not very visible in the photo: I decorated some details with finely dispersed holographic sparkles, and also added dots and snowflakes with a silver volumetric outline.

The card turned out stylish and elegant. Inside, I decorated the corner with a pattern in the same style using a silver gel pen. I pasted a square of thick light paper - this is a place to write congratulations.

And now the promised second lesson - how to draw a Christmas tree step by step, but in a different version.

Christmas tree green

This Christmas tree may seem a little more complicated, so I also advise you to first sketch out the sketch with a pencil in a smaller version several times, so that you can easily draw it on a postcard. After all, as you understand, it is better to make as few erasures and markings as possible on a postcard, then the paper does not deteriorate and the drawing looks neater. But in this version it is more difficult to do without a pencil. I laid the outlines on the pencil markings with a marker, and before painting the Christmas tree, I erased the visible parts of the pencil sketch.

Draw a cone with a pencil. Do you like to use a ruler? Please, you can use a ruler - corner.

We draw stripes with a pencil.
Before drawing the Christmas tree itself, you can already draw a tip with a marker, it will cover the very top of the head.

Now we draw the outlines of the tiers of the Christmas tree with a marker, and erase the pencil sketch where it is visible.

If you draw with a gel pen, let it dry before you erase the pencil.

We draw the lowest tier of branches to give the Christmas tree fluffiness

We draw the outlines of Christmas tree decorations, for example, with colored markers or pencils.

We fill the space between the toys with green, also with felt-tip pens, markers or pencils.

We do not paint the ribbons, this is a decorative effect. How to draw a New Year tree so that it is festive and elegant?

Add some shine! Paint on the highlights on the balls. This is how our Christmas tree turned out.

We took yellow single-sided cardboard on which we drew Christmas trees, some contours were outlined with silver and gold gel pens, so the decorations play beautifully in the light. Especially beautiful flickering under artificial light. You can also use glitter gels for children's creativity.

Next, we cut out a rectangle with a Christmas tree and pasted it onto a card made of decorative paper. By the way, you can draw a Christmas tree on self-adhesive paper, so that you can also glue it onto a blank for a postcard.

Christmas tree templates

Do you want to make a postcard with your own hands for the New Year, but can’t think of anything? Do not despair. Keep a few Christmas tree templates.

Christmas tree pictures are large, just open them in a new tab

They can be used as in the example above - drawn on dark paper with an acrylic marker or transferred to film and outlined with stained glass paint. In any case, it will turn out beautiful and stylish.

A New Year's drawing is a wonderful holiday gift and a great idea for decorating a magical interior. Especially if you make it together with a child, because, as you know, children's creations carry a special charm.

Here we will talk about the simplest way to depict a Christmas tree with gifts under it. You can very easily create an entire New Year tree composition, and in the future you will be able to draw pictures for other holidays.

To make the tree neat, first of all, you need to prepare well-sharpened pencils, a ruler and a sheet of paper. Now let's create the base of our holiday tree. To do this, draw an isosceles triangle extended upward. There is no need to press hard on the pencil. After the tree with gifts is ready, the base can be carefully wiped off.

Stages of drawing.

Next, we begin to draw the branches step by step, straight from top to bottom, making sure that they are symmetrical. The lines should be smooth. Next, decorate the top with a star, and draw a trunk at the bottom. Now all that remains is to decorate our Christmas tree.

You can create balls and snowflakes on branches, or you can create candies and other New Year's toys. A garland with cute bows looks very cool. Carefully color the picture and admire the New Year's tree. You can draw stars around the Christmas tree. In general, choose any style.

Gift box

All that remains is to “put” the gifts under the tree. It can be just dolls or bears, but it is much easier to draw boxes with ribbons. What exactly is in them, everyone can figure out for themselves. The gift pattern is essentially universal. Once you learn, you can create beautiful gifts for any occasion.

To do this, you need to follow the following algorithm.

  1. Draw a square or diamond depending on how you want to arrange your gift. Follow the proportions so that the tree with the gift looks harmonious.
  2. We depict the sides and bottom of the future box. You should end up with an ordinary cube or parallelepiped, the principles of drawing which you should have become familiar with back in school. If desired, the upper part can be drawn a little larger. Then the box will have a lid.
  3. When the box is ready, erase the extra lines and see where it is better to “attach” the bow. The ends of the ribbons should fall to the edges of the box. In general, the drawing is ready. All that remains is to finish the details on the bow and add ribbons using simple parallel lines that should be used to tie our gift under the Christmas tree.

A bag with presents

You can draw Santa Claus's bag under the tree. The basis in this case is a rectangle. We make simple stripes on the sides by hand - these are the future folds of the New Year's bag. Next, you need to round the bottom a little so that the bottom looks like a real one. We remove the extra lines and draw toys “peeping out” from the bag.

It’s even easier to draw a tied bag under the Christmas tree. This is done immediately by hand, since an even shape will only do harm here. We designate the rounded dimensions and simply give the necessary outlines. To make the drawing complete, we draw ties or a beautiful bow.

All that remains is to paint the bag as your imagination dictates, and your masterpiece can be considered ready. Your Christmas tree deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. A painting made together with a child can be presented to grandparents for the holiday.

Good afternoon, we continue our series of articles on the topic “How to draw the New Year - 48 ideas and 10 lessons”. And today I’m adding TREES to the general collection of New Year’s drawings. We will draw Christmas trees using DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES. I will show you how to create simple drawings of Christmas trees, and how to create a real Christmas tree with your own hands with drawing of pine needles and glitter reflected in glass Christmas balls.

So, let's see what ways to draw Christmas trees I have collected for you in this article.

METHOD No. 1 – ZIGZAG

The easiest way to draw a Christmas tree is with a zigzag that expands downwards. It can be painted with a toasty brush (left photo) or a thin brush (right photo below).


How to draw a Christmas tree

METHOD No. 2 – BASICLE.

This method is also quite simple for drawing with children's hands. You just need to draw on a piece of paper straight line(or slightly inclined if the tree tilts).

This line will serve the central axis of the tree- her spine. And then with paints - to the left and to the right of this axis - we will draw our bunches of panicles. You need to draw from the bottom rows of the tree to the top. This is important so that our upper tiers lie on top of the lower legs of the tree.

That is first we draw the bottom tier of the tree(a series of sweeping strokes-branches from below), then the second tier above the bottom (we put the strokes overlap to the edge of the bottom row), and then, one by one, tier by tier we go to the top.

Then on this Christmas tree you can draw snow.

Here in these pictures below also a Christmas tree painted using the BASCOLE technique. Note that, after we paint the New Year's balls on the tree, you need to take the green paint on the brush again and apply a few pine strokes ON OVER THE BALLS so that the balls seem to be peeking out from under the paws.

You can draw using the same technique Christmas trees in winter landscapes. The background for such a New Year's landscape can be circular snowstorm from shades of blue gouache. And we also paint the flying spruce branches themselves in SEVERAL shades of blue, turquoise and white.

It also looks beautiful when this technique is used in drawing. WATERCOLOR ON WET PAPER. We get fuzzy blurry silhouettes of a Christmas tree. And already New Year's balls on such a tree can be drawn clearly and clearly with perfectly straight edges.

Such a New Year's tree-broom can be decorated with dots of beads, bows, New Year's candies, and round spots of balls.

To make the ball perfectly round (as in the picture above), It’s better to paint it not just with a brush, but with a stencil. You just need to cut out a round stencil-hole from cardboard - it’s better to have several holes for different sizes of balls.

To do this, trace several glasses of different diameters on a sheet of cardboard, pierce each circle with scissors and cut out the inside along the circle line - and we will get round hole templates. We put them on the Christmas tree - the desired hole-circle in the right place on the Christmas tree. And carefully paint the hole with a thick and rich color. You can do this without a brush, and with a sponge- that is, with a piece of foam sponge for washing dishes. Using a sponge, the paint will lie evenly - since the bristles of the brush can crawl under the stencil and ruin the perfectness of the circle.

Now, look at the pictures below. Here we see our STROKE technique being performed. in the other direction. Here the strokes are not placed in a downward direction from the axis-trunk of the tree, but on the contrary, the lines of the needles are laid semicircular vector up. And we are already getting new silhouette New Year's tree. That is, a different type of Christmas tree.

CONCLUSION: The main thing in this technique is AXLE-BARREL(we base our brush strokes on the branches from it). And most importantly SEVERAL PAINT COLORS— strokes should be made from paints of different shades of green (or different shades of blue). Then our tree will look voluminous, textured and close to its real natural beauty.

How to draw a Christmas tree

METHOD No. 3

silhouette bicolor

This method is also very simple. Little children adore him. First we draw the usual Christmas tree silhouette– shaggy (left picture below) or geometric with sharp triangular corners (right picture below), as you like.

Paint over silhouette in green. Let's dry it. And on top of the dried background we draw Christmas tree decorations. Or we immediately place Christmas tree decorations, and then separately paint the spaces between them green.

The silhouette of a Christmas tree can be the SIMPLE one - an ordinary rectangle. Stars, balls, and the stem of the trunk make any triangle look like a Christmas tree.

And here in the photo below are another examples of SILHOUETTE Christmas trees, but with DOUBLE PAINTING. Here the silhouette is divided into ZONES - each zone is painted in its own shade of green.

The zones are drawn with a pencil on a dry green background - and then painted over with a new shade of green. Let's dry it. We draw decorations, beads, ribbons and a star - and the Christmas tree is ready.

METHOD No. 4 – LEVELED.

Tiered Christmas trees We all knew how to draw in kindergarten. When they built tiers of triangles of different sizes. Here in the pictures below I present to your attention variations of this technique Christmas tree images.

Tiers may have rounded corners And smooth lines floors (as in the left picture below). Or tiers may have sharp corners And broken lines floors (as in the right picture below).

Tiers can have a CLEAR SYMMETRY (as in the left picture below).

Or each tier can be UNSYMMETRICAL - not the same on the left and right (as in the right picture below).

Each tier can be painted over in your shade of green. From dark to light, or alternating dark and light in turn (as in the picture of Christmas trees below).

Along the edges of the tiers of the New Year's tree, you can lay out lines of SNOW, or lines of a TREE GARLAND.

A tiered Christmas tree can have an interesting stylization - like, for example, these Christmas trees in the pictures below - the edges of their legs twisted into curls of varying degrees of coolness.

Drawing a Christmas tree

METHOD No. 5

drawing shadow areas.

And here are the New Year trees, which no clear tiers– but hints of tiering are given drawing shadows under the spruce paws. That is, due to the fact that on the silhouette of the tree we highlight BROKEN UNEVEN LINES and paint them with a darker shade of green - due to this we get silhouettes of shadow zones on the tree - and the tree becomes textured, with clearly defined coniferous legs (as is done in pictures of Christmas trees below).

Above the shadow areas, you can whiten out the snow in some places (as in the New Year's picture below).

And below is a drawing of a New Year tree, where shadow areas are presented in the form of ROUND LINES.

That is, we draw with a pencil on the green silhouette of the Christmas tree rounded lines and loops. That is, coniferous paws are depicted in the form of sort of flat cakes.

And then we draw along these lines dark green tassel. Let's dry it. And here and there we put light spots of light green on the green paws - this gives the tree paws a visual bulge.

How to draw a Christmas tree

METHOD No. 6 MOSAIC.

This method is good to depict on gift wrapping, on postcards and as an interesting entry into a New Year’s drawing competition at school.

We start by drawing on a piece of paper with a pencil draw a triangle. And then with paints fill in this triangle with a variety of shapes (Christmas tree decorations, flowers, birds, snowflakes and other patterns, etc.).

Draw a stylized Christmas tree.

METHOD No. 6

Horizontal lines.

But the way to draw a Christmas tree is perhaps the simplest - we draw the outline of a triangle on a piece of paper with a pencil. And then inside this drawn triangle we lay horizontal lines of different colors. According to your taste, the lines can be - straight, wavy or broken lines as in the picture below. They can be placed horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

An easy way to draw a Christmas tree.

METHOD No. 7 CURLS.

Here we draw a triangle on a piece of paper. And then place a large drop of light green paint anywhere in the triangle - next to it is a drop of dark green paint. And just use your finger to mix these two drops into a round rosette curl. As a result, the paint of two shades is mixed and we get a two-color roll. We repeat the same procedure in another place of the tree. And again and again until we fill the entire field of the outlined triangle.

How to draw a Christmas tree.

METHOD No. 8

CONIFEROUS FEET.

And here is a way to draw a New Year tree using the drawing of pine legs.

Let's use the example below to look at how exactly such an image of a New Year tree is created on a sheet of paper.

To get such a Christmas tree, we must first draw a triangle with a pencil. Then paint it over with a dark green background color. And then, on top of the background, draw lines-bones of future coniferous legs. And then grow green needles on these seed-twigs.



We draw Christmas trees shining with lights.

METHOD No. 9

A RAY OF LIGHT.

And now I want to show how unusually beautiful the Christmas tree we painted looks if you think about the BACKGROUND in advance. The background you start drawing the Christmas tree on can make your drawing shine.

That is, if you make the background not a solid one color, but make a wide background stripe in the center of the sheet that is a tone lighter than the rest of the background area of ​​the sheet. Thus we get something like a pillar of light within which our Christmas tree will shine.

And in this light beam (when the paint has dried) we will paint our Christmas tree in any chosen way. And in the end we will get a tree of shining, unearthly beauties. In the picture above you can see how impressive this background looks. The tree seems to be illuminated by heavenly light.

And the pattern of the Christmas tree itself is a jumble of spots of different colors (essentially stuck with a finger). But the illusion of an unearthly radiance of the picture is created - due to the fact that 1.) the background of the leaf in the center has a whitish light shade 2.) except for colored spots, scattered throughout the tree White spots.

Let's now look at a detailed master class on drawing a coniferous Christmas tree, for which we will use the SUCH BACKGROUND DEVICE - as a “pillar of light”.

How to draw a bright Christmas tree

METHOD No. 10

THICK NEEDLES.

And in this figure below we also see the same technique for background preparation of the sheet. The sheet was painted bluish in the center and yellowish along the edges (it is better to paint the background not with a brush, but with a sponge or dishwashing sponge).

Using the same example, we Let's learn how to draw light glossy highlights on Christmas balls.

Please note that this Christmas tree (in the picture above) is drawn in a technique similar to the BROOM. Only here not alone there is no central axis from which our brush strokes dance (as in method No. 2) - here the axes for the panicle needles are multiple axis lines, chaotically scattered in different directions.

Let me draw you step-by-step MASTER CLASS, with a detailed diagram of the stages of drawing such a New Year tree.

(I’m too lazy to take out paints and a brush, so I’ll draw with a computer mouse. This will slightly distort the resemblance to the original, but will still convey the essence of the technique itself. So...

STEP 1– make a general background, glowing in the center with a bluish spot.

STEP 2– in a luminous background we set a dark background for the future Christmas tree.

STEP 3– We draw on top of our base and around it axis lines of future spruce legs. We draw chaotically and, most importantly, not very thickly (so that there is more air between them). And the main thing is that they look down and slightly apart.

STEP 4– Take light green paint on the brush. And we begin to cover the LOWER TIER of the TREE with long panicles and needles. It is important to start drawing the legs of the Christmas tree from the bottom up - mentally divide the tree into 4 tiers and floors and start from the bottom, gradually moving upward. Then the tree will look natural (where the upper legs cover the lower ones - just like in nature). In this master class, in order to save my time, I will show only one lower tier.

STEP 5– We take just green color on the brush – and between the light needles we make rich green needles. It’s also chaotic - we make brush strokes here and there.

STEP 6– take light brown gouache on brushes. And we also use this color to make brown pine needles here and there. Finished with the LOWER TIE.

STEP 7— We move on to the second tier - and do the same thing - we draw needles alternating brushes with light gouache, rich gouache and brown gouache.

STEP 8- take it with a brush dark green color(the darkest shade) and here and there we add dark strokes with a brush - drawing the needles that are in the shadow under the paws. We draw anywhere. Without hesitation.

AND MORE continue with the third tier and the fourth tier at the top of the tree. Until the entire tree is covered with coniferous branches. I will no longer draw here to the very top - a computer mouse is not the most convenient tool for drawing.

Now let's figure out how we will draw decorations for this Christmas tree.

STEP 9– using a round stencil (a hole in the cardboard) we draw circles of the SAME COLOR anywhere on the tree – but preferably under the legs – that is, we place each ball between the branches. It is important - to make the balls look natural(then in the last step we will slightly cover them with needles from the legs hanging from above the ball).

STEP 10– on the brush we put a color of the same shade as the ball itself – only a few shades darker. And on the ball we draw curls of this dark color.

STEP 11– on the brush we take another shade of color NEXT TO THE DARK. And next to the first dark curl on the ball we put another one, also dark, but of a different shade.

STEP 12– take a light (but not white) shade of color onto the brush. And in the center of the ball we place a spot of light color - a spot of a round shape, or in the form of a thick curl.

STEP 13– take the WHITE color on the brush. And in the center of the ball we place a thick white dot. And in the lower side of the ball we make a white semicircular stroke. Thus, our balls sparkled like real glass ones.

STEP 14- Now we take a stick with a round tip, with which we will draw BEADS DOTS. A simple pencil with a round erase on the end will do. Pour thick white gouache into a saucer - poke the end of a pencil into the saucer and draw a chain of beads between the balls. White beads and red.

STEP 15– And now we need to push the Christmas tree needles onto the balls a little bit. To do this, we again take the green color on the brush - and put a few sharp needle-smears on the tops of the balls. We alternate shades of green – a couple of strokes light, a couple dark. This way our balls will be slightly covered with pine needles and will look natural hanging under the legs of the tree.

By the same principle you can draw any of the Christmas trees presented below.

This Christmas tree, for example, is painted entirely first with a DARK GREEN BRUSH, and then, after drying, we take a LIGHT SHADE OF GREEN onto the brush and paint light legs on top of the dark needles.

But please note: We draw light branches without repeating the dark contours - that is, dark branches stick out not the same ones sides that are light.

But here (picture of a Christmas tree below) it’s just different. Here the light branches of the pine needles are drawn on OVER the same dark branches. Only lines of light needles are applied a little out of order with dark ones.

On such a dense tree you can place very few toys. The main thing is to make sure that after drawing the balls you don't forget again take a green brush and again draw the needles of coniferous paws, which with their edges CLICK ON top of Christmas tree decorations. To the New Year's balls as if partially drowned in dense needles and looked out from it with their glossy smooth sides.

It also looks good on a Christmas tree like this a garland of bright multi-rayed stars.

To make the stars glow with LIGHT FROM INSIDE (picture below), we use cunning way. We use flat brush(where the bristles are lined up in a row, and not in a round bunch), and onto the palette we drop a light yellow drop of paint and a dark yellow one next to it. We apply a brush to this paint so that one edge of the bristle row of the brush takes light paint, and the other dark.

And now like this two-color brush draw rays of stars. The rays are simply brush marks - we print the brush in a circle, placing its light colorful edge in the center of the circle, and the dark colorful edge of the brush on the outer side of the star circle. (Look at the stars in the picture of the Christmas tree below - their rays are yellow towards the center and darker at the edges). After the rays have dried, place a round spot of white paint in the middle of such a star.

And a white artificial Christmas tree you can draw thick spruce branches using the same technique. To do this, on a bluish background with a gray brush, draw the same legs of the Christmas tree (shaggy branches). And then we draw white shaggy branches on top of their gray outlines. And we get a picture where the white needles stand out against the background of the gray pine shadow (as was done in the picture of the Christmas tree below).

How to draw a winter tree

METHOD 11

snow-covered Christmas trees.

And here is another nice snow-covered evening tree, hallowed by a lantern. I tried to draw this Christmas tree step by step using a computer mouse. Of course, this is not as convenient and revealing as brush strokes, but still this master class conveys the general principle of creating a drawing in this style. Here it is shown how the mosaic arrangement of tiers of the legs of a Christmas tree is conveyed with simple, sloppy strokes.

Many are created using similar technology snowy images of painted Christmas trees.

Let's take a closer look at how at home a simple unprepared person (without art education and everyday experience of waving a brush on paper) can create a masterpiece himself in one evening using a brush and a jar of paint that is unfamiliar to his hand.

Here is one of the clever ways to draw a Christmas tree with your own hands in a short time. First, draw the outlines of a triangle on paper.

On the triangle, be sure to draw the central line of the axis (this is necessary in order to know in which direction - left or right - to turn the tip of the brush).

Take black paint onto the brush. An important condition is that the shape of the brush should be flat (not a round tuft) and the bristles should preferably be stiff. The second important condition is that the paint should not be too wet. That is, we dilute a thick, dryish black mixture and dip an equally dry brush into it. And we print it to the drawing - this way we will get imprints of the fibers of a natural contour that is not blurred by excess moisture (similar to the contour of real needle needles).

And then you can take it and apply it to the tip of the same black brush dryish white gouache(also spread thick gouache on a saucer, dip the edge of the bristles of a flat brush and lay its prints along the tiers of the tree - in even rows.

Here's another quick way to draw a Christmas tree. Everything is even simpler here. This method is similar to the very first one zigzag method in our article. Only with the addition of white snow.

And here is the way where the Christmas tree is painted with a wet brush, she was dipped in dark green paint, and then the tip of the same brush dipped in white gouache. And immediately this white tip was sealed to the bottom of the drawn oval tree leg. This way we will get a foot where the bottom edge has a pure white outline, and then white-green streaks go up from it.

And here is a real jewelry way of drawing the needles of a snow-covered Christmas tree. Here it is drawn subtly and gracefully every large needle on the needles. Here we see with our own eyes a method where the brush is dipped in paint on both sides.

And with such a brush we apply pine needles along the drawn branch. First the left row (like on a comb), then the right row (like on a comb), and then (!!!) definitely as many as three central rows of needles(so that the coniferous branch gets volume).

You can draw such experimental Christmas trees in gouache in one picture at once, placing them into a single winter landscape.

These are the ideas for drawings of a New Year tree that I have collected for you today in one Family Heap on our website. Now you can choose any way to draw a Christmas tree, based on the materials available and faith in your abilities.

Go for it. Take aim at artistic masterpieces. And may everything work out for you.

If you ask any child which holiday is his favorite, then, without a doubt, any child will answer you: “It’s New Year!” New Year is one of the most famous and favorite holidays for both children and adults! We all expect a miracle from New Year's Eve, some kind of magic, we believe that everything will change. What about the expectation of gifts? What could be more exciting than this? The New Year comes to us with snow, cold weather, and the smell of tangerines and Christmas tree needles is everywhere. Today we will learn how to draw a mandatory attribute of this holiday - a New Year tree with gifts! Someone puts a live Christmas tree, spruce or pine in the house. And some, in order to preserve living trees, prefer artificial Christmas trees, which are currently very similar to natural ones. Drawing a Christmas tree is not at all difficult. Just follow our tips, look carefully at the pictures and get to work.

Stage 1. Using a ruler, we will draw auxiliary lines for our future Christmas tree. One vertical and two horizontal - shorter at the top, where the very top of the tree will be, and longer at the bottom, where its base will be.

Stage 2. Now let's start drawing the outline of our forest beauty. Stepping back a little from the top horizontal line, we begin to mark the branches of the tree on both sides of the vertical. We try to arrange them carefully, symmetrically, so that our Christmas tree will ultimately be beautiful and fluffy. This will be like the back layer of branches.

Stage 3. Now we will draw the front layer of the Christmas tree legs. We place it in front of the previous one. These branches seem to overlap the back layer of branches and make our Christmas tree even more fluffy and spreading. Don't forget to mark the top of the tree by sharpening it along a vertical line.

Stage 4. We place Christmas tree decorations on the branches of our Christmas tree - balls of different sizes. We simply draw circles of different diameters on the branches. These toys must be placed evenly throughout the tree so that there are no empty areas and our tree is beautiful and elegant. Below under the tree you need to draw gifts for the kids. Gifts are wrapped boxes containing various items that children want to receive for the holiday. They are drawn like this. Using a ruler, mark a vertical line and two oblique lines extending from it at a certain angle at the top. Then connect them together. The result is a cube shape. On the sides of these cubes we draw lines of future bows that will be used to tie the boxes.

Stage 5. Now we draw a star on the top of our Christmas tree. It is five-pointed. In order to draw it straight, you can also use a ruler. The main stages of drawing a star have already been given. Below we will draw the trunk of the Christmas tree and decorate it with a large bow. The bow consists of two identical parts, which we place symmetrically on both sides. We also decorate the upper edges of gift boxes with large tied bows like roses or flowers. We draw everything with smooth lines. The edges of the bows go down onto the boxes.

Stage 6. Now you can shade the boxes a little and give them a certain color. On the bantu around the trunk we will also mark stripes.

Stage 7. Finally, let's start decorating the Christmas tree. Naturally, the Christmas tree only comes in different shades of green. The trunk is brown or gray. We make the balls on it multi-colored. The star can be red, yellow, blue. Gift boxes - according to your taste and desire. Look what a beautiful Christmas tree we made! It would be New Year soon!
