There are artists whose animals and birds are the main characters in their drawings and paintings. They are called animalists. The word "animalist" comes from the Latin word "animal", which means "animal". But drawing animals is not so easy. Because animals don't know how to pose. The animalist has to diligently observe and study their habits and character. The artist begins his work by making sketches, sketches and sketches from nature of living animals, birds, fish, and long-term works are usually carried out from stuffed animals or from photographs.
Animal artists try not only to achieve external resemblance, but also reflect in the drawings the character inherent in the depicted animal or bird, they try to convey the individuality of the animal.

One of these artists folk artist Russia Viktor Chizhikov - author of the Olympic bear cub Mishka, the mascot of the XXII summer olympic games, which took place in Moscow in 1980.

He designed books by Marshak and Barto, Chukovsky and Volkov, Mikhalkov and Nosov. For half a century, his illustrations appeared in magazines Funny pictures", "Murzilka". His drawings are full sunlight, humor and joy, more than one generation of readers has grown up. One of the artist’s favorite themes is the image of cats.
Wonderful illustrations were drawn by Viktor Chizhikov for Andrei Usachev’s book “Planet of Cats”. The artist gave his animal characters traits characteristic of humans.

There is a cat planet somewhere.
There cats live like people:
Reading newspapers in bed
And they drink coffee with cream.
They have apartments and dachas,
Cars and other comforts.
They love to fish
And they take the children to the resort.
They fly to overseas countries.
They find diamonds the size of a fist.
Tulips planted in flower beds
And they even breed dogs.
Luxurious life on the planet
In cats, cats and kittens!
But strange inhabitants these
They are always sad about something...
So many good toys!
So many records and books!..
It's just that cats don't have cats.
Oh, how sad we are without them.
(Andrey Usachev)

And we have no time to be bored, we start drawing a fluffy kitten.

Practical work.

We apply a stencil of the cat figure to the middle of the album sheet.

Dip a dry sponge into yellow paint and use typing movements to fill the silhouette with color. We start with the head, then the body, then the tail.

The result is a spot - the figure of a kitten.

Using a small broom in orange, draw small strokes along the contour of the figure in the direction of growth of the kitten’s fur.

Select the face, paws, chest and cheeks.

We draw stripes on the tail, sides and head of the kitten.

With a brush we draw the eyes, nose and mouth of the kitten, draw on the mustache and eyebrows.

Many people think that drawing is an artistic “science” that not everyone can master. In fact, a person’s craving for art awakens as early as early childhood, however, without a certain development of abilities, it weakens over the years.

So is it possible to teach a child to draw, especially if he was born unable to do so? When to start educational process and from what exactly? Finally, is it necessary to send the baby to art school or to a drawing club in the future?

At what age do children start drawing?

Children begin to take an interest in drawing quite early, following the example of their parents and brothers and sisters writing something on paper. However, in a general sense, the craving for drawing manifests itself in children aged 1 to 1.5 years.

And if at first the child’s drawings look more like scribbles, then closer to 5 years (and up to 15 years) an actively developing imagination helps children create real masterpieces on paper.

The benefits of drawing for child development

Rate all positive sides drawing in childhood is almost impossible - its influence on children is so enormous that the development of the child’s entire personality falls under the “sight”.

In the general sense of drawing:

• forms in the child a passionate sense of beauty and a desire to create something beautiful;
• develops the baby’s mind and imagination and helps to master new “tools” for exploring the world: felt-tip pens, brushes, pencils;
• The child learns to convey surrounding objects through his pictures and at the same time is engaged in useful work.

Where to start?

The first drawing lessons can take place already when the baby learns to hold objects in his hands. At this point, mom can hand him pencils and help him draw a simple line on the paper.

Let it not be completely even and even “slide” from the album onto the table. It is much more important that the child understands: his “manipulations” can subsequently turn into something truly beautiful!

Pencils or markers?

You should not give pencils to children without adult supervision, so that they do not accidentally get hurt by them. However, under watchful supervision, children can draw with felt-tip pens and a brush - especially since they make their first attempts at “pen” using coloring books.

Who would refuse to draw a character from their favorite book, the finished image of which lies in front of you on paper? It’s hard to make a mistake and do something wrong here!

Which ones exactly?

Some people find that pencils or thin felt-tip pens are not very convenient to use. At least for children two years old: their stylus often breaks and the rod is pressed inward.

However, only by giving your child the opportunity to choose something of his own from a variety of options will you help him find his favorite “tool” for drawing.

Paints or crayons?

A two-year-old child can draw with almost anything: with finger paints and thick felt-tip pens - on paper, with bright crayons - directly on the asphalt or board. It is generally most convenient to draw last, since they are soft and leave clear lines behind them.

Mastering gouache and paint will be a little more difficult, because they imply not only a desire to sculpt something, but also certain technique creativity.

Miracle of technology!

IN Lately Stores began to sell amazing things for drawing: a set for creativity with glitter on velvet paper or amazing felt-tip pens that a child can blow into. And it's truly wonderful!

Drawing lessons for kids from 2 to 4 years old

Teaching a child who is 2-3 years old to draw begins with mastering the simplest techniques. At the same time, it is very important to be attentive to the child’s needs to create and not to ridicule his diligent scratching of a pencil on paper.

The condescending attitude of adults towards children's drawings leads to the fact that the child may consider drawing an empty activity and abandon it.

What will you need?

Take bright colors, paper (than bigger size there will be sheets, the better), good brushes, a soft sponge and a glass of water. It is best to dress in something that you don’t mind getting dirty - even a purchased apron for drawing will not save you from stains when to the young artist only 3-4 years!

How much time should you spend studying?

You need to teach your child to draw for 10-20 minutes, 2-3 times a week, so that he doesn’t get bored, but also doesn’t end up losing his desire for creativity.

Techniques for developing drawing skills

the freedom of action

To conduct this lesson, take glossy paper white And watercolor paints. Let your little one dip the brush into the paint can and drip it directly onto the paper! Fancy patterns, with which it spreads, will look like magical pictures!

Sponge but not Bob

For this lesson, take gouache and large leaf paper Have your child dip their hand in the paint and squeeze it out a little. Let him leave a “signature” on the sheet with his hand, and use a sponge rolled into a roll to make the final artistic “touches” nearby.

You can draw on paper in a similar way with your fingers: dilute the gouache with water so that it turns into “sour cream” and pour it onto a plate. Using a wide brush, apply paint to your child’s fingers and ask them to leave their autograph on the sheet.

Wet style

A thick and large sheet of paper needs to be wetted under water for a couple of seconds. Now put it on a tray and invite your child to scribble watercolors on it. Considering the condition of the surface, the paint will spread on it, mix and create amazing “wet” patterns.

Scarlet flower

To teach a child to draw something really memorable, you can do this: dip the child’s finger in green color and, holding his hand, draw a stem with him on the paper. The palm print will act as a bud, and the end result will be a wonderful flower!

This technique can be successfully used to depict other objects. Try using it to depict a tree or a cheerful giraffe with your baby.

Drawing lessons for children over 4 years old

The age of four is a fertile time for mastering more complex drawing techniques. Already during this period it is worth sending your child to an art school, but if for some reason this does not work out, you can teach him to draw yourself.

It's more fun together

Get ready for the fact that you will have to do this together, since it is from your drawings that he will begin to take correct example. Try to draw brightly, specifically and not be distracted by too small details.

Tell me everything

Accompany the drawing process with a fascinating story so that the child understands what you are doing.

Master the shapes

The most important thing is to teach your child to draw geometric figures, which will become the basis of the desired images, regardless of whether it is an animal or a person.

How to draw a tree?

At 4 years old, you need to start with something simple: with an ordinary green Christmas tree, which is cold in winter.

Below we attach step by step instructions to create an “artistic” tree and a picture - so that the child understands the principle of operation.

1. Draw a line on the sheet leading from top to bottom. We draw slightly curved lines from it, which will be the branches of our Christmas tree.
2. Now we will try to “outline” these lines with needles: as shown in the figure. When all the branches become fluffy, paint the Christmas tree green.

Birch and other types of trees can be depicted in a similar way.

Learn to draw animals

Drawing a hedgehog

1. Draw the hedgehog's quills on the paper using a zigzag, and then add his ears.

1. Connect them with an oval to form a head.

1. Draw the hedgehog's nose, eyes and mouth and give the hedgehog a belly.

1. Draw his legs and arms.

1. All that remains is to draw the needles as shown in the picture. The hedgehog is ready!

Draw a donkey

Drawing a donkey on paper is also much easier than you thought.

We perform the following steps step by step:

1. We draw a simple oval on paper, then divide it with a line into two parts, in the upper of which we draw the donkey’s eye, and in the lower – the nostrils and mouth.
2. Now we attach the donkey’s ears by drawing two “cucumbers” on the sheet. Just below the head we draw another oval - this will be the donkey’s body, which we will connect to the head with two “neck” lines.
3. Now you need to add legs to the animal, drawing them at the bottom of the body, and a real tail, placing it on the side.

The donkey is ready! All that remains is to color it as your imagination dictates!

Drawing a cat and a dog

You can draw a cat and a dog using the same method. The step-by-step technique for depicting a cat is shown in the following figure:

The main thing is to let your child understand that drawing animals is not difficult if you take geometric shapes as a basis (in in this case these are circles and semicircles) and show a little imagination.

You can draw a dog in the same way:

How to draw a person?

How to teach a child to draw a man? Not as easy as you want, but not as difficult as it seems. Begin!

Diagram of a full-length image of a man

1. Draw an oval and a rectangle on the sheet (as shown in the picture), and then connect them with a line to each other. We finish drawing the legs and arms with fingers.

2. Then add two lines to the arms to make them appear thicker. Let's do the same with the legs. Now let’s draw the man’s ears (two semicircles on the sides) and make a hairstyle.

3. A person’s face deserves special attention, but drawing his features - mouth, nose and eyebrows - will be easy if you look at the drawing first. Add a neck to the person and draw a shirt with a collar.

5. Draw his trousers and boots, draw his palms. There's nothing left to do: erase auxiliary lines, outline and color the person.

Drawing a human figure in motion and a face

In a similar way, you can depict a person in motion or draw his portrait. Step by step process detailed in the following picture:

Drawing circle: when and why?

By the age of 6, a preschooler who is actively involved in drawing already knows how to create with paints and pencils. If his drawings differ significantly from the creativity of his peers (in better side), send your preschooler to a club so that an experienced teacher can continue to work with him.

To choose a good club, just find out if there is a private school or a creative arts center in your area. Very often, ordinary art teachers conduct similar classes right in schools (without age restrictions).

Individual lessons

If you want your child to create professionally at the age of 6, send him to individual lessons. Their advantages are that:

• the teacher visits you at a convenient time;
• you choose the program in which the child will study (for example, drawing portraits);
• Lessons are paid upon completion of the lesson.

Cons individual lessons There are also: they are not cheap, and finding a good teacher can be difficult.

Summing up

Any way of teaching a child to draw is good - both at 1 year old and at 5 years old, because it develops imagination and allows you to spend a little more time with the baby.

At the same time, it is not so important whether you strictly follow a certain methodology or independently develop an individual one. art program. It is important that these activities interest the child and are varied.

And even if your child does not grow up to be a real artist in the future, drawing lessons will still have a beneficial effect on his development and correct perception of the world around him.

Children love to draw and with great pleasure draw living creatures: insects, birds, animals. But most of all they like to draw people: mom, dad, brothers, sisters, relatives and just strangers. Children draw pictures of people who were stationary and in motion. But the most favorite hobby a child is to draw people like himself, that is, children. Children draw with special interest those they like or with whom they would like to be friends. But drawing a child, especially his face, is difficult, so little artist The help of an adult is very important. It is the adult who will be able to help his child draw the child’s face step by step. the main task adult in the process of this drawing - help select the necessary accessories in order to correctly depict the face little man. To do everything properly in the drawing, you need to carry out preparatory work. Ask your child what geometric shapes he knows, remember with him what a circle or oval looks like, showing their image. You can see the details of the face in the illustration by finding these shapes. Together with your child, you can examine the proportions of the face of your favorite character in the picture in a children's book. And encourage the child by telling him that he will succeed.
