Already drew +5 I want to draw +5 Thank you + 38

Winter is a very cold time of the year. This is not to say that it is not as beautiful as spring, summer or autumn. Winter has its own characteristics and beauty. Snow-white snowdrifts, crispy snow underfoot and small snowflakes that fall straight from the sky. Well, isn't it lovely? Today we will find ourselves in a village in the winter season. A frozen river, roads covered with snow, small houses standing in the distance, and behind them the silhouettes of a winter forest. This lesson will answer the question of how to draw a winter landscape.
Tools and materials:

• White sheet of paper;
• Eraser;
• Simple pencil;
• Black pen;
• Colored pencils (orange, brown, light blue, dark blue, dark brown, green, dark yellow, gray).

Drawing a winter village landscape

• Step 1

  In the middle of the sheet we draw two houses. It is worth considering that they will be in the background, so we make them small. The house on the right will be larger than on the left and has a window. They will stand in the snow, so we draw the ground line a little wavy.

• Step 2

  Silhouettes of bushes and trees are visible on the sides of the houses. To the right of the house there will be two trees on a tall and thin trunk. We make the horizon line wider.

  
  
• Step 3

  Add silhouettes of trees in the background. We make them different, but at the edge the height of the trees should decrease. Let's draw the foreground a little, making a small indentation.

  
  
• Step 4

  In the depression in the middle we draw a small fence, covered with snow. Add snowdrifts on the sides. The river will be placed in the center, so the snowdrifts should decrease in this area. And in the very center of the river (and the leaf) there will be a large stone.

  
  
• Step 5

  In the foreground, trees will be visible on the sides of the snowdrifts. They will be completely bald, with only the trunk and branches visible.

  
  
• Step 6

  Draw the outlines with a black pen. Using a black pen, we do not highlight only the background of the picture in which the forest is located (behind the houses).

  
  
• Step 7

  We make the front part of the houses orange. Draw the side part and under the roof with a brown pencil.

  
  
• Step 8

  Under the house we will draw snow in blue and light blue, adding a frosty tint to the drawing. The middle of the picture will be blue and the edge will be blue.

  
  
• Step 9

  Trees, stumps and a fence should be painted in brown and dark brown. On the right side of the trees we will add an orange tint.

  
  
• Step 10

  We make the river blue in the middle, and blue closer to the ground. Draw the snow in the foreground in gray to give it volume.

  
  
• Step 11

  We will draw the forest against the background of the picture in three colors – gray, dark yellow and green. We apply the color without specifying the contours. Since the trees are in the background, they will be slightly blurred.

  
  
• Step 12

  We finalize the drawing by adding blue color to the sky. Now we know how to draw a winter rural landscape.

How to draw a winter forest landscape

Every season the forest is transformed. In the spring it begins to come to life, covering the trees with young foliage and melting snow. In summer, the forest is fragrant not only with flowers, but with ripe berries. Autumn colors the trees of the forest in various warm colors, and the sun palely warms with its last rays. Winter exposes the branches of trees and covers them with a white blanket of snow, freezing the rivers. It's hard not to convey this beauty in illustrations. Therefore, today we will choose the last season of the year and learn how to draw a winter forest landscape using colored pencils.
Tools and materials:

• Simple pencil;
• White sheet of paper;
• Eraser;
• Black helium pen;
• Black marker;
• Colored pencils (blue, orange, blue, gray, green, light green, brown, dark brown).

• Step 1

  Divide the sheet into four parts. First, draw a horizontal line in the middle of the sheet. Draw a vertical segment in the middle of the horizontal line.

  
  
• Step 2

  Let's draw the background part of the picture. On a horizontal line we draw two mountains (the left one will be larger than the right one.) And in front of them we will make silhouettes of trees.

  
  
• Step 3

  We retreat a small section down from the horizontal line (there will be a river here). Using a curved line we will draw the ground, or rather, a cliff.

  
  
• Step 4

  We retreat further down and draw pine trees. Their feature is a long trunk and thin branches. At the base of the trunk we will add small snowdrifts. The trees on the left have some foliage.

  
  
• Step 5

  Let's draw a deer in the foreground. The animal should not be too detailed, because the main task of the drawing is to show the winter landscape. Let's add more snowdrifts in the foreground.

  
  
• Step 6

  Let's outline the contours of the drawing in the foreground with a black pen. There will be snow on the tree branches.

  
  
• Step 7

  We begin to paint with color from the background part (top). Let's determine that there will be a sunset, so between the mountains we apply orange, then add blue and blue. We make transitions between colors smooth, applying from bottom to top. The mountains will be gray, but adjust the contrast using pressure. We make the trees in front of the mountains uniformly green.

  
  
• Step 8

  For the river we use the usual blue and blue colors. Closer to the mountains, we add green and gray tints to the water to make it look more picturesque.

  
  
• Step 9

  The trunk should be drawn using orange, brown and dark brown. The trees on the left have some leaves, which we will make green.

  
  
• Step 10

  Add a shadow from the trees using a gray pencil. Let's add a little coldness to the drawing by drawing the foreground in blue.

  
  
• Step 11

  The deer's body is covered with brown fur. And between the snowdrifts we will add blue color. So we learned how to draw a winter forest landscape.

Winter is one of the most inspiring times of the year.

Does your child love to draw, but has unfortunately run out of ideas? No problem.

We offer all kinds of winter drawings for children, and share the best techniques for turning them into reality.

This creative process captivates not only children, but also adults and will forever remain in their memory as a pleasant memory!

Various options for expressing talents

Winter themes are a field for flights of fancy. You can draw a house in the snow, various fantasies about this (snowman, snow queen, Santa Claus), children's games, snowdrifts, animals associated with this season, landscapes (day and night), a river or lake with ice on the surface.

There are many materials for this task: pencils, paints, felt-tip pens, gel pens, cotton wool, glue, glitter.

House in the snow

We present variations of children's drawings on the theme “Winter” with colored pencils and paints. One of them:

To begin, draw three large snowdrifts, one after the other. Draw Christmas trees on them. To do this, draw one stick with a brown pencil. Branches will extend from it. Draw needles on them in green. Draw snow with a white pencil. The house will be hidden behind the snowdrifts. Draw a square and a triangle on top of it. This is a wall with a roof. Place a small square on the wall and a rectangle next to it: a window with a door. Sprinkle the roof with white or blue snow. Ready.

It is better to do the drawing with shading rather than painting over all the empty spaces.

Painting winter with colors:

Here is the first snow and a house in winter. But painting with paints is a difficult task. To begin, make markings with a simple pencil (take the work plan from the first option). Then simply paint with gouache. Blue color indicates snow flakes.

Winter landscape

Winter-winter:

Divide a sheet of paper in half. Place two Christmas trees on the top line, followed by light green birch trees. Distribute as many trees as you think necessary on the sides. There should be snowdrifts in the center. To do this, leave a couple of lines of purple-pink color, shade the blue somewhere.

Winter tree:

We'll have to divide the horizon again. Only now on one third and two thirds of the sheet. In the upper right corner we draw a sun. There are Christmas trees on the horizon line. We will make them blurry, do not draw the outline and details. Using a thin brush, draw two semicircles on the lower part. These are snowdrifts. Using the same thin brush, we draw two birch trees without foliage onto them.

The desired fairy tale

When we hear the phrase “winter fairy tale,” most people think about a snowman, a Snow Maiden, and talking animals.

Therefore, we suggest in the background, and in the foreground, a smiling snowman and his mouse girlfriend:

To do this, draw three circles. The bottom one is the largest, the middle one is smaller, and the head is the smallest. She is wearing a red cap and a multi-colored scarf around her neck. There are two twig handles on the side, with warm mittens on them. New Year's gift in hand.

Fairytale winter house:

Nothing new. We combine elements from earlier works: there is a house, Christmas trees, and a snowman. This option is also suitable for children in grades 2 and 3.

Fun

The kids' favorite pastime is, of course, ice skating. Pictures on the theme “Winter fun”:

We draw the upper part of the man the way you are always used to doing it. Spread your legs a little wider than usual. In the second boy, you can depict how he pushes off the ice. The ice should be soft blue, otherwise color as desired.

Mischievous guys love hockey:

We divide the horizon into two parts. The top one is for the sky, trees and gates, the bottom one is for fun activities. How to make a gate: in a gray square, the strokes go diagonally, first from the bottom left to the top right, then from the bottom right to the top left. Place one child on a slide and let the other watch the beautiful picture. Give two children sticks in their hands and throw a black oval puck between them.

We remind you that it is difficult for children to work with paints because they blur on the sheet. The base should be made with a pencil, and blurry spots should be attached to it, symbolizing hair, clothes, and equipment.

Fantasies

Children fantasize and dream most often about gifts, the New Year and Santa Claus. We invite you to draw winter fantasies using sketches:

First, draw an oval, with a smaller oval in its center. We divide the large figure into two parts. We draw a semi-oval on top (and a semicircle on top), and a semicircle on the bottom. We got a hat without a pompom. Hurry up and finish drawing it. The very first oval will contain eyes, furry eyebrows, a nose and a mouth. From the mouth, draw another half circle. Starting from the hat, erase the boundaries, drawing out the beard in detail. Let's paint it over.

Another option:

Draw a circle and a smile in its center. This is the nose of Santa Claus. A luxurious mustache should extend from the nose. Then draw frills on the cap and a full beard in waves. Draw the cap and body, eyes, eyebrows, gifts behind the back. All that remains is to use the paint. Forward! A 4th grade student can easily handle this.

We depict nature from the earth to the sky

You can draw winter nature in different ways.

Animals

Who else, if not a bunny, stays awake all winter? What is not a symbol of this time of year:

The steps are extremely simple: draw an oval, not far from it there is a slightly elongated circle. Add the contours of the tail and paws. We connect the head with the body, attach long ears to the head. Add touches to create a wool effect.

Drawing animals with paints is not as difficult as it seems. Penguins live in the ice all year round. They deserve to be in your winter drawing:

How to draw animals: in the upper half we paint the excellent beautiful northern lights. Most of the leaf is occupied by snowdrifts and ice floes. Three little penguins walk happily on them. We make a black oval, slightly tapering at the very beginning. Next to him on the sides are flippers. Dip the brush into orange paint and carefully apply it downwards. These are webbed feet. We paint the eyes and abdomen white.

Forest

Forest - trees and animals collected in one place. How to depict a winter forest in the picture:

How to draw a winter picture with rowan: draw a trunk of medium thickness, short branches extend from it. At their ends we place small red circles in two rows. The first row is longer. Next to the rowan we draw a red semicircle, with two sticks extending from it. There are three more from these sticks: two diagonally, one in the center. Add a black head, beak, wings. Place a couple of Christmas trees and other animals of your choice in the picture. Don't forget to use white and blue pencils to create a snow effect.

Another variant:

First you need to draw the fir trees. Dip the brush into green paint, then press it onto the sheet evenly on both sides. The result is symmetrical needles. We use brown paint to mark the base of the trunk. The rest of it was covered by branches. After that, paint the bottom and top white, leaving space for the moon. We wait for the white paint to dry, then apply pink next to the yellow circle and blue around the edges.

Night

Fairytale night forest:

Even if you work in a minimalist style, there is a chance to achieve the desired recognition. Print the tree in green as in the step above. On top of this layer, apply almost the same, but white, leaving space for the previous one. It turns out to be a Christmas tree that is covered with snow. Add blue paint to the sky and paint stars and snowflakes on it with a thin brush.

River

Drawn picture with a river:

This drawing is also done using shading. Christmas trees are made with blue strokes obliquely and tilted to the right. The sky is in violet-blue tones. Let's add yellow-purple clouds. The river is blue-yellow with a horizontal streak.

Making crafts: pleasant gatherings

Winter illustration:

For such a simple craft, we will need a sheet of cardboard, glue, colored and plain paper, and gouache. Cut out a branch from brown paper. We paint snow on it with white gouache. Dip your palm into red paint and press it horizontally to the sheet. All that remains is to add the eyes, beak and legs. Cut out small snowflakes and glue them.

Another simple craft:

Available materials: cardboard, colored paper, cotton wool, cotton pads. Glue the disks on top of each other to make a snowman. We cut out all the necessary details for its decoration from paper. Glue brown tree trunks and a broom onto the leaf. Then we deal only with cotton wool. Tear off small pieces and fluff them up. These will be snowdrifts. Then roll into large balls - this is the crown of the trees. Smaller balls - Christmas tree. The smallest lumps are falling snow.

Works worthy of the competition

We have selected examples of drawings about winter with which your child will be able to win the competition. The implementation techniques were presented above.

For those over ten

Ten-year-old children are old enough to perform more complex techniques for drawing winter. They are already able to work out small details, handle paints so as not to go over the edges.

Beauty - you can't take your eyes off it

Finally, we would like to show you beautiful painted, talented children’s portraits of winter:

We wish you success in all your creative endeavors! Let winter be remembered with a wonderful design.

I found an interesting selection on the Internet. (the most interesting, for me, is at the end))

1. Winter drawings. "Volume snow paint"

If you mix equal amounts of PVA glue and shaving foam, you will get wonderful airy snow paint. She can draw snowflakes, snowmen, polar bears or winter landscapes. For beauty, you can add glitter to the paint. When drawing with such paint, it is better to first outline the contours of the drawing with a simple pencil, and then paint it with paint. After some time, the paint will harden, and you will get a voluminous winter picture.

An interesting idea on the topic of children's winter drawings was suggested by the author of the blog Homeschool Creations. She used putty to paint snow on the transparent film. Now it can be applied to any winter pattern or appliqué, simulating falling snow. They put the film on the picture - it started snowing, they removed the film - the snow stopped.

On a piece of paper, use a thin felt-tip pen to draw wires and light bulb sockets. Now apply the light bulb stencil to each socket in turn and outline it boldly with chalk. Then, without removing the stencil, smear the chalk on the paper using a piece of cotton wool or directly with your finger to create rays of light. You can replace chalk with colored pencil graphite chips.

On the site already mentioned above Maam.ru you will find an interesting master class on drawing winter landscapes using templates. You will only need one base color - blue, a coarse bristle brush and a white drawing sheet. When cutting out templates, use the cutting method from paper folded in half. Look at what a magnificent drawing of a winter forest the author of the painting created. A real winter fairy tale!

Shaving cream (foam)
- watercolor paints or food coloring in green shades
- flat plate for mixing shaving foam and paints
- paper
- scraper

1. Apply shaving foam to a plate in an even, thick layer.
2. Mix different shades of green paint or food coloring with a little water to make a rich solution.
3. Using a brush or pipette, drip paint onto the surface of the foam in a random order.
4. Now, using the same brush or stick, beautifully smear the paint over the surface so that it forms fancy zigzags, wavy lines, etc. This is the most creative stage of the whole work, which will bring pleasure to children.
5. Now take a sheet of paper and carefully apply it to the surface of the resulting patterned foam.
6. Place the sheet on the table. All you have to do is scrape off all the foam from the sheet of paper. For these purposes, you can use a piece of cardboard.

Simply amazing! Underneath the shaving foam you'll find stunning marble patterns. The paint has time to quickly absorb into the paper; you just need to let it dry for a few hours.

15. How to draw winter. How to paint winter with paints

Concluding our review article on winter drawings for children, we want to tell you about another interesting way how you can paint winter with paints with your child. To work, you will need any small balls and a plastic cup (or any other cylindrical object with a lid).

Place a piece of colored paper inside the glass. Dip the balls in white paint. Now put them in a glass, close the lid on top and shake well. As a result, you will end up with colored paper with white streaks. Similarly, make colored paper with white streaks of other colors. From these blanks, cut out the details of the applique on a winter theme.

How harsh are the winters in our country! It will be possible to make pedestrian crossings under the snow, and cars will need to be equipped with special systems so that they can fly over huge snowdrifts. Despite this, winter brings joy to many people with its beauty, making them want to reflect this beauty on paper. How to draw this time of year?

Winter brings people a lot of holidays, fun and good mood. The festive accompaniment of Father Frost and his Snow Maiden can bring smiles to people. Playing snowballs, sledding, sculpting a snow woman - what else can better unite people of different ages and statuses. So, let's try to display one of the beautiful winter landscapes on paper.

Step 1. We draw a long path that goes far beyond the horizon. We draw a line of mountains and a small, barely noticeable moon on top. We are doing everything with thin rough lines for now; we will give them an image a little later.

Winter is the most magical time of the year, shrouded in an atmosphere of fairy tales and goodness. Such a positive mood can also be conveyed through a landscape, which any novice artist can draw, regardless of his age.

Before you start drawing, prepare everything you need:

Colour pencils;
