It turns out that it is not so easy to find a step-by-step drawing of a woman in a Russian folk costume. Mostly just costumes.

But here's an easy example of how to draw just such a drawing.



In my opinion, this is the heroine of some cartoon.

I don’t really like to draw, and frankly speaking, I don’t know how. But I do great when I follow an example. For example, I really like drawing from video lessons. It turns out well. Here's a great video on how to draw a Russian woman in folk costume.

They say Russian girls are the most beautiful. Nature has endowed our compatriots with pleasant facial features, blond hair and a graceful figure. Thanks to good external data, as well as their own work, girls look beautiful even in retirement. It is not surprising that many painters and graphic artists wanted to capture our girls on their canvases. And today we will try ourselves as an artist and draw portraits of Russian beauties, as well as a full-length figure.

Drawing with children

When a child draws a portrait of a Russian beauty, he usually depicts his mother’s face. After all, it is this person who plays a big role in his life. Therefore, when reading fairy tales with your child, you need to develop his imagination and attention. After the fairy tale is read, you can invite the child to draw the main character. And how to do it?

The easiest way is to depict a girl in a skirt and draw a kokoshnik on her. Let's look at the progress of the work step by step. First of all, we draw the figure of a beauty. These will be two triangles connected by sharp ends in the middle. The bottom figure is a skirt, it should be 3 times larger than the top corset. The dress is ready, add a circle for the head and don’t forget that every person has a neck. We depict the hands as rectangles. Don't forget to draw the fingers. We put boots on our feet. It remains to add some details to the drawing. This is the face of a beauty, a braid and, of course, a kokoshnik. The eyes and nose can be outlined with dots, lips - with a semicircle. And the last detail is the decor on the dress and kokoshnik.

Cartoon heroine

Portraits of Russian beauties do not necessarily have to be authentic. If you draw with children, it is easier to depict a comic character. This way the child will be satisfied not only with the creative process, but also with the result. The character of our drawing will be a girl dressed in a fur coat, a long skirt and a fur hat. Standard Russian beauty in winter.

Let's start with the layout. On the sheet we will depict not only a girl, but also a church, a tree and stones. We outline the figure and divide it into three parts. Now we divide the upper sector in half again. We draw the lower half of the head with a circle, the upper half is the hat, we draw it with an oval. You can immediately outline facial features. We will draw the figure in three quarters, this is the easiest angle.

Let's start drawing out the fur coat. To begin with, we outline it with a trapezoid. Next we detail the fur coat by adding fur edging. Now we draw hands. In order not to draw fingers, we will put a muff on the girl. Now it's time for the skirt. To make it look more interesting, don’t forget to draw folds. We draw 5 vertical lines along the skirt, and draw a wavy line for the hem. It remains not to forget about the background - in the form of a church, trees, stones. Our drawing is ready.

Portrait of a princess

If a child has artistic talent, then, in principle, he cannot depict the entire figure on paper. How to draw a portrait of a Russian beauty?

You need to outline the dimensions of the drawing. The face should occupy half or one third of the sheet. Draw an oval and mark the hairline with two semicircles. We immediately draw a kokoshnik. It will look like a pointed semicircle. Princesses wear dresses, so this part of the design needs to be given special attention. In order not to torment your child with images of decor, you can come up with a more complex style of clothing. The girl's figure should resemble an hourglass. But the sleeves can be drawn in the form of several interconnected circles or ovals. You can depict a braid in the same way. We put beads on the beauty's neck. Only the face remains. To avoid the problem that one eye is larger than the other, we draw the girl in a small spread, as if she was slightly turned away from the viewer. We depict the eyes as circles, and give them an almond shape using the eyelashes. We complete the arches of the eyebrows and draw the nose in a small semicircle. All that remains is to outline the lips, and our beauty is ready. You can color the drawing if you wish.

Russian beauty in kokoshnik

At school, when children study the topic of national costume, they are often given homework. How to draw a portrait of a Russian beauty? 4th grade is the time when students can already portray people almost reliably. But drawing portraits is too difficult a task. Therefore, it is better to choose a simpler theme, for example, to depict the entire figure of a girl in a national costume. In such a drawing, a portrait of a Russian beauty in a kokoshnik will also be present, but will not attract increased attention.

In order to depict a girl, we, again, need to arrange the figure on the sheet. So that our beauty doesn’t get bored, we can draw a young guy next to her. Let's start with the image of the girl. Divide the figure into 4 parts. The first of them is devoted to the image of the head and kokoshnik. We draw the face in a circle, and the headdress in a semicircle. Don't forget to make a small point in its center. We use a trapezoid with a rounded edge to represent a sundress. We place the second of our four parts under the arms. We draw them with corners to the trapezoid. We also outline the shoes with triangles. All that remains is to detail the figure, draw the face and the ornament on the sundress and kokoshnik. By analogy, we try to portray a young man.

Matryoshka

The classic Russian beauty can be depicted as a national doll. Even a small child can draw a matryoshka doll. A portrait of a Russian beauty, depicted in this way, will make the child stand out from the crowd who will copy Disney princesses.

It is better to draw a nesting doll in parts. First you should depict the right half, and then use a window to mirror your creation. Draw a semicircle symbolizing the face. The next step is to draw the outline. It needs to be copied from the example shown above. Now you need to fill the empty space. First, we clarify the face: draw the eyes, lips, nose and cheeks. Now we draw the hand. It is an oval connected to the palm. It should be noted that a nesting doll can have 4 fingers, not 5. Now let’s get creative. We dress our beauty in an apron and draw flowers. The final touch is to move the image to the left side.

Modern interpretation

Abstraction is in fashion today. Therefore, a drawing-portrait of a Russian beauty in a modern interpretation may look unconventional. For example, you can draw a beautiful bun, a nice profile, outline a neck line and an ear. But it is not necessary to draw the face. You can get by with non-trivial shading or, in general, write a poem in place of the eyes and lips. It could even be a favorite verse.

A couple of days ago Alena Belova wrote to me asking me to show how to draw a folk costume with a pencil. I have already done a lot of drawing lessons on different clothes. You will see links to them below, under this lesson. And for this I selected a picture depicting women’s festive clothing from the Tver province of the 19th century: On the left is a sundress, a shirt and a belt. On the right is a girl's festive shirt with a belt. If you were asked this topic in history or art class, you can use this lesson:

How to draw a Russian folk costume with a pencil step by step

Step one. I sketch the main parts of the costumes. This is no different from a sketch of a person, only without the head and legs. It is also important to maintain proportions here.
Step two. Draw the shape of the dresses. Folk costumes (at least ours) were not open, so here almost the entire body is hidden.
Step three. A very important point is the folds. Without them, the drawing will look like a paper dress. Try to show all possible curves and shadows from them on the dress.
Step four. Another distinctive feature of folk costume is the abundance of patterns. This is not just some kind of invention from Armani or Gucci. Each pattern means something. It’s difficult to draw them, but if you don’t do this, it will be difficult for the viewer to determine: is this a dress of some young lady or a folk costume? And so, by looking just for a second, anyone can determine without error.
Step five. If you add shading, the drawing will become more realistic.
I already wrote above that I have a lot of drawing lessons here. You can take any theme that has clothes in it and copy it. But I have selected the best thematic lessons from this and am giving them to you.

The work begins with an image of a circle approximately 1.5-2 cm in diameter. Future face Ladies, by tradition, write in white, much less often the tone of “carnation” - flesh-colored - is used. This is more likely due to the fact that the white stands out better against the bright Gorodets backgrounds.

Having written a bleach circle for the “face” and dried it well, they begin to depict the hairstyle, that is, they write, as it were, petals around the middle of a flower, only they do it in black or dark brown.

Then the Gorodets master attributes to the head neck, knowing in advance what kind of dress and with what neckline he will put on his mistress. In our case, the neckline of the dress is triangular, so the neck and neckline of the dress are also covered with whitewash. With this simple technique, the master outlines the axis of the figure, without allowing himself to get lost in proportions.

For writing shoulders and the hands of the female figure require only two strokes with a wide brush. One stroke indicates the left shoulder and the left arm bent at the elbow, the other - the right shoulder and the outstretched right arm, slightly removed from the body.

Completing the painting of the upper part of the female figurine, the master writes a tone waist, applying each of the broad, smooth strokes precisely and to the spot.

The drawing of the figure is completed by writing in white hands. At this stage, the lady’s face is usually designed. For this I use the thinnest brush with black paint. According to tradition, the face is written very schematically: thin high eyebrows, round eyes, a nose outlined in one or two strokes, a small mouth, which acquires a kind smiling expression if a bright red dot is placed in the middle of a straight horizontal line - “bow lips”. Sometimes cheeks slightly enlivened by pink color - blush. Each artist has his own techniques for painting faces, but in general, the Gorodets style of painting does not imply psychological expressiveness; here the convincingness of the figure, its positioning, gesture, turn of the head, proportions, and color of clothing are much more important. Style unity is very important: how the figurine looks in the surrounding environment - the interior of a Gorodets house, in a flowering garden, on a city street.

An integral part suit The Gorodets dandy always had a fluffy patterned skirt. It is this skirt, reminiscent of a bell in outline, that A.V. depicts. Sokolova.

Special mention should be made of the design of the lower edge of the skirt. The Gorodets master will never write it completely straight; he will make a slightly curved “living” line, which is drawn, as a rule, in black, contrasting with the color of the suit. If several female figures stand nearby, then this single black stroke emphasizes all the women’s skirts, from under which pointed shoes are visible. This is one of the characteristic Gorodets techniques, completing the lady’s costume; it can be seen on many Gorodets dons.

Shoes They come in different designs - barely noticeable or completely visible, with high heels. They certainly visually slim the figure. The result is an effect similar to how the character of a bird is changed by its thin, graceful legs.

An important stage of work on the female figure is shading, as well as bleaching her clothes. In Gorodets, countless styles of dresses and their trims were invented. It seems that they can be used to study women's fashion of the second half of the 19th century. To decorate dresses, various techniques are used - lines, pokes, shading, work with bleach and colored sponges, etc.
