Ways to draw a Christmas tree. Drawing a New Year tree in the middle group step by step with photos

Drawing of a New Year tree and Santa Claus is the most new year theme children's drawings. You can draw a New Year tree in different ways, the main thing is to correctly draw the proportions of the tree branches and pine needles. The New Year tree should be “slender” and beautiful with “fluffy” and thick needles. Drawing a Christmas tree is not difficult, but in order for the Christmas tree to be even and beautiful, I offer my own version of the lesson " How to draw a Christmas tree"in pencil, as usual, step by step. On last stage The drawing can be easily colored with colored pencils.
To draw beautiful Christmas tree, the top of the crown must be decorated with a star and many bright toys drawn on the branches. To create the mood for the upcoming holiday - New Year, in a picture with a Christmas tree, draw Santa Claus and Snow Maiden next to each other. There are such lessons on the site.

1. Drawing of a Christmas tree. General outline

The Christmas tree drawing will be the correct shape if you first draw general outline in the form of such a simple geometric figure. The shape of the tree will be even and neat if you draw a dividing line exactly in the center, which will serve as the trunk of the tree and at the same time a guide for the entire drawing. To create the volume of spruce branches in the drawing, you must draw an angle protruding towards the viewer at the bottom of the outline.

2. Approximate contours of needles and branches

Since the tree is all covered with needles, it is not necessary to draw branches for it. But still, to Christmas tree drawing was beautiful and correct, you need to make simple markings that will allow you to divide the drawing into sections of the proposed branches.

3. Spruce branches in detail

The real tree you'll have in your home doesn't look exactly like this picture of a tree. But the main thing for us is to draw a beautiful and symmetrical New Year tree, and then decorate it with toys and draw a suitable interior. Therefore, we will draw the Christmas tree schematically, making symmetrical sharp edges of the branches on both sides of the tree. From the center line of the trunk, draw the sharp edges of the branches, thanks to this the Christmas tree in your drawing will be fluffy and beautiful.

4. Detailing the Christmas tree design

Fill in the remaining gaps between the edges and the middle of the tree with random strokes. Try to make them symmetrical on both sides. Do not press hard on the pencil, we are planning to color the Christmas tree at the last stage with colored pencils.

5. Finish drawing the Christmas tree

At this stage, you need to make the drawing of the Christmas tree more “clear”. Spicy and hard pencil draw as many basic contour lines as possible. To make the tree look beautiful, try to draw symmetrical branches on both sides. Now we can say that the drawing of the Christmas tree is completely finished. All that remains is to decorate it New Year's toys and an asterisk at the top of the crown.

6. Decorations for the Christmas tree

What is a Christmas tree without decorations! Of course, you need to draw a lot of bright toys and, most importantly, color the pine needles green pencil. Next to the Christmas tree you can draw boxes with gifts and, if necessary, the surrounding interior, including the Snow Maiden and Father Frost. If you need to draw Father Frost and Snow Maiden, deer and other forest animals, then on our website you will find such lessons.


The Snow Maiden's drawing is made on graphics tablet step by step. You can use this lesson to draw the Snow Maiden as usual with a simple pencil.


On New Year's Eve, many children want to draw Santa Claus and the New Year tree. The drawing of Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden will be needed for both the New Year's wall newspaper and the original one, " self made" greeting card.


If you need to draw a New Year's card with a picture of a Christmas tree and Santa Claus, then reindeer may well complement such a drawing.


Drawing a brown bear requires some preparation and practice in drawing animals. You need to be able to reflect in your drawing the character of a fierce and dangerous beast. Of course, if you are drawing children's illustrations for New Year's card with a Christmas tree and Santa Claus, then the bear should have a good-natured appearance.


It's not easy to draw a kitten. Firstly, the kittens are small, and secondly, they are very active. The drawing will take a lot of time, and it is impossible to make a kitten sit still for even a minute.


If you need to draw a Christmas tree in the forest, you can draw several forest “residents”, such as a fox, near the tree.


All children love to make snowmen in winter. Try to draw a snowman, recording your impressions on a piece of paper.

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'll show you how to draw Christmas tree for a postcard. 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 a newfangled 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.

On the diagram, each new step marked in red.

  1. 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.
  2. Imagine how from top point The lines expand downwards, 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.
  3. — 5. We draw the remaining tiers like skirts, also raising the corners and lowering the lower border in an arc. 6. 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. 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.

Christmas tree in doodle art style made with thin markers of two colors

How to draw a Christmas tree in simple version you know now.

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. In the Zenart and graphics section there are ready-made coloring pages Christmas trees for children of different ages, as well as coloring templates for Christmas trees in the doodling style. And here's what we got.

children's drawing for this lesson

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 the skirts 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 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.

  1. Draw a cone with a pencil. Do you like to use a ruler? Please, you can use a ruler - corner.
  2. We draw stripes with a pencil.
  3. Before drawing the Christmas tree itself, you can already draw a tip with a marker, it will cover the very top of the head.
  4. 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.
  5. Drawing contours Christmas tree decorations, for example, colored markers or pencils.
  6. Filling the space between toys 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! 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.

That's all for today! If you liked it, leave a review in the comments. I remind you that you can send your creations to our club’s VKontakte feed vk.com/zenarts

Soon, soon he will come to us
Happy New Year!
You and I will dream
And choose gifts!
To make the holiday brighter
I didn't forget about the Christmas tree!
Here are the toys with tinsel
We hung with you!
Let kind grandfather Freezing
Our wizard red nose!
All the guys in order
Gives out chocolate!
This is probably what every boy and every girl dreams of. New Year. I really want the holiday to come to us as quickly as possible! What is needed for this? We need a Christmas tree! And Christmas trees grow in the forest!

I just remembered my childhood! Early on a bright morning, my grandfather and I always went into the forest to pick a Christmas tree. We tried to choose the most beautiful one!

And at home they dressed her up. Everyone tried to choose the most beautiful and favorite toy and tried to hang it on the most visible
place! This is the beauty we got.


I would like to say in the words of Elena Ilyina:
"Look
Through the crack of the door -
You'll see
Our Christmas tree.
Our Christmas tree
tall,
Enough
To the ceiling.
And on it
Toys hanging -
From the stand
Up to the top..."
But now in our modern developing world there is no need to go into the forest, you just have to stand on a chair and take out from the closet a magic box in which an artificial Christmas tree is stored.


And now the toys...


Now let's decorate the Christmas tree.


And no going into the forest, no magic. But you can make the world brighter without destroying a single Christmas tree! How, you ask? Just! You need to plant a Christmas tree under your window! And dress her up every year!


And I suggest you draw a forest beauty. It's easy and simple to do! I suggest using a simple drawing method for work - the “poke” method.
Basic rules for drawing using the “poke” method:
1. Paint with a hard semi-dry brush. This means that we do not put the brush in water before applying gouache to the brush.
2. After washing off the paint from the brush, blot the brush on a cloth. This is necessary to keep the brush semi-dry.
3. To apply the drawing, we do not apply it with traditional strokes, but poke it into a sheet of paper, holding the brush vertically. Hence the name – the “poke” method.
4. After putting paint on the brush, the first “poke” should be made on a spare piece of paper, as this will allow the drawing to be more evenly colored. The first “poke” always leaves a brighter mark, which is not always necessary in work.
5. When drawing a large object, such as the body of an animal, it is important to first follow the outline and then start filling in the middle.
After familiarizing yourself with the basic rules, you can begin to work.
Drawing a Christmas tree:
1. Let's start working with an image of the trunk of a Christmas tree. To do this we need brush No. 3 squirrel.
First we draw the trunk itself. We make the crown thinner, and thicken it towards the bottom of the trunk, applying strokes close to each other. I start each stroke from the top of the head and smoothly lead to the very bottom, spreading it to the sides. Now we draw branches - small semi-arcs, starting from the trunk and spreading to the sides.

2. Now we draw the needles. We make it unusual and in an interesting way– using the “poke” method. Let's not forget about the rules.
We start work from the base of the branch.

And so we continue until the very end. And so on each side of the branch, making it fluffier with each “poke”.

3. We do the same with each branch. First, on one side of the tree,


Then the second side, trying to make the parallel branches the same.


4. Now add darker gouache bright colors at the bottom of each branch.


5. Every Christmas tree in winter forest falls under snowfall, and snowflakes and even a lot of fluffy snow remain on her paws. This is exactly what we need white gouache and a hard semi-dry brush. Using the “poke” method again, we draw fluffy snow on the top of each branch.

The Christmas tree is ready. We will make a frame. To do this, we will use blue gouache and draw a frame using the “poke” method. Positioning the “poke” tightly to each other right near the edge of the sheet. Try to take your time so that the frame turns out dense and bright. Now our Christmas tree is ready.


It will become a worthy decoration of our home on the eve of the most beloved holiday for all children.


Whatever place we find for her, she will definitely please us!


Even a child can draw such a Christmas tree. This is how Vanya, 5 years old, saw and drew a Christmas tree.


You can decorate our Christmas tree by hanging painted tinsel and balls on it.


Or draw a whole forest.


Show your imagination. Don't be afraid to experiment!

Spruce


Spruce is an elegant, slender tree. One cannot help but admire its crown, which has the shape of a regular narrow cone. This cone is especially pronounced when trees grow freely, not constrained. The long lower branches bend somewhat towards the ground, as if they are unable to bear the heavy load of needles. The top of the tree is always sharp, it never becomes dull, even when the tree is old. The crowns of the fir trees look like the tips of giant peaks aimed at the sky.
Spruce is a symbol of courage, boldness (to the point of insolence, recklessness), high spirits, fidelity, immortality, longevity, arrogance, and royal dignity. IN Ancient Greece spruce was considered the tree of hope. The Christmas tree symbolizes the beginning of the annual cycle and life in general. fir cone- a symbol of the fire of life, beginning, restoration of health. Spruce is an amazing plant: it can be used to treat various diseases entirely. Cones, needles, branches and buds have unique beneficial properties. Essential compounds boast bactericidal and antiviral properties. As aromatherapy, spruce essential oil is used for diseases of the upper respiratory tract, as well as to improve immunity and prevent acute respiratory infections. In addition, spruce oil can eliminate stress and nervousness, enhance protective properties skin and increase the overall tone of the human body. While indoors, in a short time the essential compounds of spruce neutralize harmful microorganisms, filling the house with oxygen and a healing microclimate and weakening electromagnetic radiation from household appliances.
Spruce is widely used in the national economy. Large quantities of its wood are used, for example, to make paper. In our age of rapid progress of civilization, the need for paper is extremely great and it is necessary great amount. Statisticians have calculated: in one year, all countries of the world produce so much paper that if one whole sheet of normal thickness is made from it, it will have fantastic dimensions - you can “wrap” the entire Earth like a wheel of cheese! In global paper production most of accounts for the share of spruce.
Materials and tools:
- watercolor paints;
- brushes No. 12, No. 2, squirrel;
- drawing paper;
- a simple pencil, eraser;
- watercolor paints, sippy cup;
- frame for decoration.


Stages of work:
We take a simple pencil and drawing paper, which we place vertically. Let's start drawing the spruce from the trunk. Its trunk is straight and thin.


We will draw the branches in three tiers. We draw the first tier from below with straight lines emanating from one point on the trunk, as in the figure.


We draw the second and third tier similarly to the first, shortening the lines of each tier.



Add a horizon line.


Using a wide brush, paint the sky with blue watercolor.


We paint the ground with light green watercolor.


Using brown watercolor we draw the trunk of the spruce tree.


We draw the branches with dark green watercolors.


Using the end of a thin brush and dark green watercolor, draw the needles on each branch. The thicker the needles, the more magnificent the spruce we will get.



For splendor, add small twigs to the branches.


Draw the needles.


We draw young needles on the tips of the branches with light green watercolors.


Using black watercolor we add a shadow on the trunk.


Use dark green watercolor to paint the grass in the foreground.


The spruce drawing is ready. We put it in a frame.


Spruce
The common spruce is arrogant from afar,
and nearby is a cozy house...
Here we will wait out the rain.

Christmas tree

In anticipation New Year's holidays The question of how to draw a Christmas tree becomes especially relevant. After all, it is she, the green beauty, who is the center of the holiday. Round dances are performed around her, she is decorated, and gifts are hidden under her lower spreading paws. And what would a winter landscape be like without its thick and fluffy branches under the snow? We offer several interesting lessons How to beautifully and unusually depict a popular winter tree.

Step by step example

First of all, let's look at how to draw a Christmas tree step by step. To do this, let's try to draw a festive tree, with decorations and garlands.

Stage 1
Let's prepare the basis for the future drawing. To do this, let's draw equilateral triangle with a base, slightly smaller sides. In the center of the base we will mark the trunk or the installation location of our spruce.

Stage 2
Let's give the appropriate shape to the contour, as shown in the figure.

Stage 3
Let's outline the decorations with light lines: a garland, balls and a star.

Stage 4
Using auxiliary lines we will depict the gifts lying under the lower branches. The sketch is ready.

Stage 5
We draw more saturated lines with a pencil (or felt-tip pen, or pen): first the outline, then decorations and gifts. For a more voluminous design, we will add details: threads of balls, additional touches of twigs and ribbons on gift boxes.

Stage 6
Removing auxiliary lines.

Stage 7
The finished drawing can be colored or left black and white. In the second case, it makes sense to add shadows under the balls, on gifts, to depict the glow of a garland and a star.

Pencil

The method suggested below on how to draw a Christmas tree with a pencil is quite simple. To execute it you only need good pencil medium softness and a little patience to draw the needles: in this case the spruce will turn out to be the most realistic.

First of all, let's draw a trunk and a piece of land from where the tree grows.

Then we’ll start filling it with twigs and needles, starting from the top of the head.

You should not try to make it very even, since in nature trees do not have perfect symmetry. Let some branches be a little shorter, some longer. It is more important to carefully and tightly fill them with needles.

Draw branches with needles all the way to the base.

Now you need to give the drawing volume by adding shadows on the trunk, below the branches and near the grass on the ground. The drawing is ready.

Beautiful tree

The proposed method of how to beautifully draw a Christmas tree under the snow is very unusual, but at the same time simple.

Draw a triangular outline of the Christmas tree.

We fill this contour, starting from the top unusual shapes, as it shown on the picture. This is snow lying on the branches. Fill it not symmetrically, but as evenly as possible.

After this, you can add snow on the ground and snowflakes for atmosphere.

Now you need to draw the branches themselves. To do this, we tightly shade small areas under the white specks of snow, as shown in the figure.

We work out the remaining unfilled areas with lighter shading to indicate soft shadows.

The result is very good and unusual.

A simple example of a Christmas tree

This easy way to draw a Christmas tree is suitable even for young and not so young people. experienced artists. The resulting tree can be painted and decorated Christmas decorations, and “powder” the snow in the winter forest.

Let's figure out how to beautifully draw a Christmas tree step by step.

Step 1
Draw the visible part of the trunk with the root system.

Stage 2
We start filling the tree with twigs and needles from the bottom. The smaller and more detailed the needles shown, the fluffier the spruce will be.

Stage 3
Gradually narrow the outline of the tree towards the crown. The Christmas tree is ready.

Christmas tree

This is another simple option on how to draw a Christmas tree.

First of all, we draw an auxiliary contour - a triangle on the leg.

Along this contour we mark the Christmas tree branches using rounded lines, as shown in the figure.

We connect them into general figure and add a visible trunk.

We remove the auxiliary lines and decorate with a star on the top of the head, Christmas balls, a garland and candy canes.

The Christmas tree is ready!

Example of a Christmas tree in pencil

The sequence proposed below on how to draw a Christmas tree beautifully with a pencil will be useful for both the New Year's version and for a regular Christmas tree. A complex and beautiful result is achieved not so much by special skills as by accuracy and patience. Be sure to try to draw such a tree!

You should start with the auxiliary contour lines of the tree itself, the trunk and the stand.

Along the spruce triangle, we mark the position of the branches, first the main ones, then the filling small ones.

The sketch is ready. Now use a darker pencil or felt-tip pen to refine the drawing. Let's start with decorations. We use light spots on the Christmas tree balls to imitate a glossy shine.

It's time to get to the branches. By auxiliary lines We begin to apply the needles. First along the contour, then inside.

Let's highlight the trunk and branches visible through the needles and decorations and draw the stand.

Let's fill the entire tree with needles so that it looks fluffy.

The finished Christmas tree can be complemented with bright flowers.
