Drawing on the theme of summer from 12 years old. How to draw summer? Advice for young artists

The summer drawing may become the culmination of the past summer holidays and family travel season.

It allows you to recall in your memory all the most significant events of filled sunlight days and save them for the future by transferring them to a piece of paper.

Questions for conversation in a lesson on the topic “Summer”

In order to make it easier for children to spill out their memories onto the space of a white sheet of paper, they need to be configured accordingly, to open a channel to the source of imagination and creativity. Therefore, before we begin the actual drawing process, we conduct a focused conversation, during which we look for answers to auxiliary questions:

• Did the kids enjoy their summer holiday?
• Where does summer feel best - in the apartment or on the street? In the city or in nature?
• Which natural phenomena indicate that it’s summer outside?
• How can you tell by plants that it’s summer outside? Which plants have become the real symbol of summer?
• How do you remember this summer - fine, warm, or rainy, cloudy?
• Which days did you like best – sunny or rainy?
• What did you do when it was raining outside? Did you enjoy it?
• What event do you remember most?
• What colors would you like to depict a memorable event?
• Which colors are happy and which are sad?
• What colors best reflect the sultry colors sunny day? (We gradually lead the children to the definition of warm and cold shades).

How to conduct a lesson on the topic “Summer Drawing”?

Having smoothly directed the kids to think about the upcoming work, we give them a few basic ideas to begin the creative process.

• Let's discuss where to start our drawing. (By defining what exactly we will try to depict).
• Many kids will want to depict nature. We tell you that such a picture will be called a landscape, and on French this word means "country" or "locality".
• We are thinking about where we will start filling the space of the white sheet. (From drawing the horizon line). We think in which case the horizon line should be lower (if we want to draw a lot of sky) or higher (if the main goal is to draw what is located on the ground). We explain that the horizon line is drawn thinly, with a simple pencil, and then it is erased.
• We are thinking about whether it is necessary to depict the sun, and if so, in what ways can this be done.
• We ask if someone will paint the forest. Usually there are a lot of such people in the group. Then we carry out small master class on drawing trees: we gradually lead the kids to the fact that trees become thinner as they move up their trunk, that their branches are also thicker and more powerful at the bottom than at the top. We examine several ways to depict the deciduous crown and silhouettes of coniferous trees.
• Let's find out if someone will draw flowers. We think about how best to do this, remember that some flowers have a center and petals, and some do not. We recall the stylized image of flowers, explain to the children what the concept “stylized” means.
• We discuss how animals can be depicted - realistically or stylized. Children love stylized drawings; they manage to convey the basic character traits depicted object.
• For inspiration, we show the kids several hand reproductions of summer images. famous artists. We discuss how the master managed to convey the atmosphere summer day, how he distributed the objects on his canvas, what colors he used, what special moves in his work.
• Turn on pleasant light classic music and let's get started creative process. As we work, we approach the children and tell them if something is not working out for them.
• At the end of the lesson, we make sure to arrange an impromptu gallery, asking each child to tell about their painting and give it a name. We suggest running the cycle similar works yourself to preserve a more complete picture of the past summer days.

Children's drawings: ideas for inspiration

Children's drawing summer is always rainbow colors, positive energy and piercing sincerity.

Such a painting will not just decorate the room, it will fill the surrounding space with its positivity, attract attention to itself and create a benevolent atmosphere in the house.

Summer means flowers, butterflies, bright blue sky and green grass. This is exactly the picture we will draw today. From this drawing you can make a postcard.

Necessary materials:

• A sheet of white paper;
• Colored pencils in yellow, orange, red, pink, dark green, light green and blue flowers. Pink color can be replaced with purple, then you get a real rainbow;
• Thin black marker;
• A simple pencil (preferably soft 3B);
• Eraser.

First, use a simple pencil to mark where the flowers will be located. The lines should be very light, barely noticeable. The shape of the flower fits into an oval. Place the ovals at the bottom of the sheet, at different angles to the edges of the paper and to each other.

In the upper part, make room for the butterfly; use light lines to determine its size and direction of flight.

If you connect the corners of the wings of any butterfly with lines, you get a trapezoid. Therefore, you need to start drawing a butterfly with this figure. Having outlined its contours, divide the trapezoid with a line approximately in the middle. From the corners to the center of the trapezoid, round off the shape of the wings. Label the body and head.

Now you need to draw the flowers. In the middle of each planned oval you need to make smaller ovals.

From these small ovals, draw diverging lines separating the petals.

Round the petals without disturbing the intended shape of the flower.

Use light lines to mark the location of several leaves. They should be located in different directions. First, draw the middle line of the sheet, then two lines from the tip with a corner. Draw the leaves, rounding the lines.

Carefully trace the resulting outlines of flowers, leaves and butterflies with a marker. Try to keep the lines smooth.

Take a blue pencil. Using transparent lines, sketch out the horizon line approximately in the middle of the sheet, as well as the lines of the hills below. Use light strokes to tint the sky. Start tinting from the upper corners of the sheet towards the horizon line, gradually loosening the pressure.

From the horizon line it is also very easy, using loose strokes with a gradual weakening of pressure, indicate the distance with the hills.

Yellow pencil color the butterfly wings. This should be done in small strokes with even pressure. Do not press the pencil too hard, it is better to cross-hatch in one place several times until you achieve the desired tone.

Paint over the body of the butterfly orange, and use a marker to draw small details: spots and black corners on the wings, eyes and antennae.

Now it's time to do the flowers. Use a yellow pencil to shade out the centers.

Then start tinting the petals. To make the tinting look neat, outline and color each petal separately. The strokes should be small and the pressure on the pencil should be even.

In our picture red, orange and pink flower. But you can come up with another combination.

Color the leaves this way: one half of the leaf is dark green, and the other half is light green.

Finish the drawing by working out the details with a marker. In the middle of the flowers, apply several dots, draw veins on the leaves.

Summer– this is one of the most amazing, beautiful and long-awaited times of the year. It's the sun, it's hot time with long days and short on warm nights. Summer is hot sand and a gentle wave on the seashore, good mood and unforgettable experiences. Summer is different for each of us. And it’s different for everyone! Anyone who visited the southern coast of Crimea this summer immediately imagined the following picture: the sea, mountains and pine trees of bizarre shape, growing along the slopes of the mountains to the seashore.

Let's try to draw together with the children drawing on the theme “Summer”- a memory of summer, based on step by step instructions seascape images.

The master class is conducted by Vera Parfentyeva, technology teacher, leader of a preschool club, reader of “Native Path”. The article is illustrated with drawings by Vera’s little pupils.

Drawing on the theme “Summer” step by step

Step 1. Horizon line.

We draw a straight line with a simple pencil at the bottom of the sheet (thus introducing the kids to the techniques of working with a ruler). This is the horizon line. Children will learn a new concept: the horizon line is an imaginary line where the sky appears to touch the ground or water. IN in this case- with the sea.

Step 2. Sun.

We draw the sun going beyond the horizon.

Step 3. Draw a mountain in the background.

We draw an arbitrary curved line from the horizon line - this is the mountain in the background.

Step 4. Draw the second mountain.

Draw a curved line for the mountain protruding forward.

Step 5. Draw the shore.

On foreground draw the shore.

In another option, you can make the composition of the picture “in reverse”, in a mirror image.

Step 6. Draw a pine tree.

On the mountainside we draw a pine tree bending over the sea under the influence of the winds. Pines in Crimea have a bizarre shape, low, with crooked trunks, but firmly holding onto the rocky soil with their roots. If you have been to another place, draw trees characteristic of that area.

Step 7. Make our drawing on the “Summer” theme color.

Well, now the most interesting thing: take watercolors or gouache paints red-orange and color Sun. It is best to hold the brush vertically and paint with “pokes” with the tip of the brush.

Paint over with dark brown paint mountain in the background (drawings by Sasha, 7 years old, and Nastya, 6.5 years old). Drawing with “poke” makes it possible to express the relief of the mountain.

Paint over nearby mountain light brown paint. There is a large area of ​​the design here, so it is more convenient to hold the brush at an angle, pressing it against the sheet with full bristles.

Add green color, gradually mixing it with the still wet brown paint.

Drawing the summer sea.

It is better to complete this item one point earlier, because... the mountain blocks the sea. The children hurried a little. Paint over a section of the sea with blue paint. Movement of the brush horizontally in one direction, from left to right. It is advisable to draw a line along the horizon without interruption. The remaining lines can be drawn with a brush in smooth wavy lines. Do not allow the brush to move back and forth without lifting the brush from the sheet. Then, under the setting sun on the water, make a few strokes with the tip of the brush and blur them. This creates a reflection on the water of the sun going beyond the horizon.

Let's draw a pine tree. Hold the brush vertically. First, “poke” along the contour of the pine crown, and then fill the internal space, leaving gaps here and there.

Drawing the shore (in the manner described above - hold the brush at an angle, pressing it to a sheet of paper with full bristles.

We draw lines on the trunk and branches of the pine tree.

When drawing lines on the trunk and branches of a pine tree, the hand should always remain to the right of them, tilting the brush vertically in the same direction, touching the paper only with the tip. The brush is moved along the pile. The hand remains suspended, without leaning on the sheet, so as not to smear the drawing.

Using white paint we lightly shade the crown and trunk of the pine tree.

This is what happens (drawing by Nastya, six and a half years old)

We draw poppies.

If desired, we draw poppies. We put dots on the grass with a toothpick. These are poppy flowers. They say that red poppies bloom where fierce battles took place during the Great Patriotic War.

Creative task for children:

1. Close your eyes. Mentally transport yourself to the southern coast of Crimea. Imagine the sea, the coast, the mountains. Listen to the sound of the sea wave, the cry of the seagulls and the whistle of the ship. Paint your landscape.

Drawing lessons for junior schoolchildren

Master class on drawing. "On flower meadow. Ladybug"

The nature of our planet is our wealth, which we must appreciate. Our task is to preserve all the diversity and richness of nature. Let us admire our nature as a song! Let's become her friend and take care of her!
After all, protecting nature and preserving it means loving your native Earth.
Have a carefree summer
Golden time
Festival of sun and light
Gives joy in the morning.
Nothing is more beautiful
In the grove of birdsong,
Yellow-eyed daisies
Snow-white eyelashes.
Cornflowers bright blue
In the emerald grass
And lilac haze
Above the river at dawn.
Ripe raspberries
Sweet juice on lips
As a sign of July
In the forests near Moscow. (I.Butrimova)

How nice it is in the summer on a green water meadow! Among the lush grasses, there are bright fragrant flowers. Elegant butterflies, bees and bumblebees flutter above them.
Among the magical space
I'll get lost from the soul!
There is so much beauty here, here is the kingdom
Have a wonderful fairytale dream!
The whole meadow is replete with fragrance and breathes,
Bees and bumblebees sing here,
And the butterflies are in the highest whirling
They are looking for those flowers in delight,
That they are given the sweetest nectar! -
How delightful everything is here! -
The flight of the soul is the highest here! -
His name is happiness! (N. Klubnichkina “In a flower meadow”)

Today is the first lesson. You will learn the plot of our drawing from the riddle rhyme:
I'm a harmless bug -
neither an ant nor a cockroach!
I don't moan or butt,
although I call myself a cow!
Mustaches instead of horns
on the back, like beads,
black peas,
as if abandoned by someone.
I'm a ladybug
I'm sitting on chamomile!
There are a lot of us
we are all like twins!
Carrying me away
to the wildflower
red wings
V black dot! (N. Ileva “Ladybug”)
That's right, we will learn to draw a ladybug on a daisy. From time immemorial, chamomile has been a symbol of Russian nature. At the ancient Slavic people it was considered one of the 7 sacred plants - hazel, chamomile, oak, hops, weeping plant, willow and mistletoe.
The name chamomile comes from Latin word, meaning “Roman” when translated into Russian. IN medical literature In the Middle Ages it was called the “Romanov flower”. IN Ancient Egypt The chamomile was dedicated to the sun god Ra. And the Greek name translates as “ White color OK".

For work we will need: album sheet, colored wax pencils, brush (squirrel or pony No. 2), water glass, watercolor.

We will draw “raw”. To do this, you need to moisten the desired area and inject paint there. The watercolor itself will begin to spread across the water in a random order, and adding an additional shade will create a unique pattern. The main thing is not to mix the paint, but to let it spread on its own. The wax pencil will hold water and paint in the area of ​​the drawing we need.
