Original ways of drawing. Unusual drawing techniques for children

I. Using various materials while drawing, you can achieve interesting effects:
1. to get blurry outlines, drip water (or vodka) onto a sheet covered with watercolors. This is a good way to depict a sky overcast with clouds;
2. effect "cereals", snowflakes, "ice crust" can be obtained by sprinkling salt on the applied watercolor image;

3. chaotic uneven retouching turns out thanks to crumpled paper;
4. drawing with a stencil has many options. Try placing the cut out figure on a piece of paper and covering them with watercolors. Now remove the stencil, allowing the paint to spread out. The outlines of the stencil image will be blurry, and the color will intensify from the center of the figure to the periphery;
5. interesting texture can be achieved using sandpaper;
6.emerging "second" layer possible with multilayer image. Draw crayons or candle something on a piece of paper and cover it with watercolors. In those places where something is drawn with chalk or a candle, the paint will not lie smoothly, and the image will show through from under it;

7. "scratching" paint paintings. Draw something crayons or candle on paper (or just color the sheet with crayons). Now cover the sheet of paper with the image with a thick layer of paint (gouache) and let it dry. After the paint has dried, you can start scratching out the image. In those places where there is chalk, the paint will come off well, in other places it will remain an even background;

8. another interesting way to draw crayons and gouache can be called " m5th image"An object is drawn on paper with wax crayons, and the entire space around it is also painted over with crayons. Now we carefully crumple this sheet, straighten it and cover it with gouache. Now quickly wash off the gouache using a sponge and water. The paint should remain only in the places where the paper is folded;

9. an interesting effect is obtained from drawing sponge. Invite your child to “draw” the crown of trees or the sea with a sponge;

10. give "fluffiness" image can be used using gauze or cellophane. It works well to use this effect with stencil. Cut out an animal figure from cardboard and attach it to a sheet of paper. Now we dip gauze or cellophane into paint diluted with water and lightly move along the contour of the stencil. When you remove the stencil, you will see a clear figure of the animal, and its outline will look soft and fluffy (for example, like a bear drawn with gauze by Valeria Koryavikova).
Next to it is a drawing made according to the same principle, only without a stencil, and instead of gauze was used polyethylene bag;

11. try using it as an additional drawing tool threads. Good at drawing winding lines using woolen threads from a loose product;

12. amazing colorful circles are obtained if you paint not with a brush, but electrical toothbrush or massage brush.

II. "Punching": the child might like it" stamp“objects or “draw” something in this way. You can “stamp” any objects, these can be cubes (a set of geometric shapes) or an eraser on the back of a pencil:

Prints can also be made using natural materials, for example, a spruce branch or a large leaf from a plant:

III. The baby may like to draw on a sheet if it lies on some convex surfaces. You can make a curly one yourself stencil For "imprints", for example, like this:

IV. If you draw over a wet watercolor drawing back of the brush, then you get " grooves", as in the picture with the trees. So you can “draw” on the wet one with scissors, in which case the “grooves” will be the same and two at a time.
V. Spray: Interesting effects and images can be created by spraying paint from a brush or toothbrush onto a sheet of paper. The same can be done by placing an object on the sheet. Then there will be a “dotted background” around the object, and the image of the object will be colorless.

With help splash you can paint the whole picture:

VI. Blots: drop and let the paint spread over the sheet. You can blow into the center of the blot through a straw. You can make images from blots mirrored, if you first fold the sheet in half (or twist it), then straighten it and drip paint onto it. Now fold the sheet again and press lightly. Next is a matter of your imagination. See what the blots look like and add the necessary details. Below is a mirror drawing from a blot by Yulia Mitko.

VII.Monotype. This technique works well for postcards.Apply multi-colored stripes or patterns to glass (or any other material that does not absorb paint). Now place a sheet of paper on top and press down lightly. Remove the sheet of glass and examine the printed design.

VIII.Foam drawing.

1. Whisk foam and pick it up with a sponge. Now squeeze out the sponge so that the foam ends up in the paint container. Stir and use a brush to apply foam and paint onto the paper. When the drawing is dry, the excess foam can be blown off.

2. For creating effect use different shades take the colors shaving foam and gouache of the color you need. Mix shaving foam and paint in a bowl and apply it to the drawing with a brush.

IX. Drawings with glue

1.Glue lining.Draw an object on the sheet with a pencil. Through a small hole in a tube of stationery glue, squeeze the glue along the contour of the image and leave it to dry. Then fill in the space inside the outline.

Children and creativity are inseparable concepts. The child learns about the world around him, trying to reflect it in play, modeling and drawing. After all, at heart, every child is a singer and musician, artist and sculptor. Children's creative impulses are often associated with artistic activity, and a child's visual creativity is an ideal opportunity for the manifestation of his imagination. This is an important condition for the normal development of the baby.

Non-traditional drawing techniques for children in kindergarten and school - this does not mean something complicated. Quite the opposite - this kind of drawing turns art classes into fun. Here it is not at all necessary to have complex pencil and brush skills. With simple unconventional drawing techniques, a child is able to create beautiful drawings and paintings, and this will give him an amazing creative experience with an excellent final result. He himself will be drawn to art when he feels that he can create beauty with his own hands.

Unconventional drawing methods

For children, non-traditional drawing techniques are a wonderful way to create small masterpieces. It turns out that your palm can turn into a pink elephant, a simple blot can become a tree, and a carrot and potato can surprise you with unusual patterns.

Eg, kids 3-4 years old we can suggest:

With kids 5-6 years You can also try:

• prints-pictures
  
• plasticine printing
  
• leaf prints
  
• palm drawings
  
• painting with cotton swabs
• magic strings
  
• monotype.
  

And with children 7-8 years You can master more complex techniques:

• drawing with crumpled paper
  
• drawing with soap bubbles
  
• painting with salt
  
• blotography
  
• plasticineography
  
• grattage
  
• frottage.
  

For children, modeling from plasticine is a whole world full of variety and experiments! Under your careful guidance, a child can create all sorts of things and become the best guide for creating various fairy-tale characters, animals and plants.

Hand drawing

Drawing with pens is the first technique that little children can master very early. The drawing turns out quickly - this is extremely important, because kids cannot do one thing for a long time. Dip a child's hand in paint and let the child make an imprint on the surface of the paper. See what it's like. Ask your little one what needs to be completed to make an animal or bird. The missing details can be drawn with your fingers.

Techniques for painting with watercolors on wet paper

To create small masterpieces you will need a sheet of thick paper, watercolor paints and a brush. Help your child wet the sheet evenly, but make sure there are no puddles. Let him put some paint on his brush and start creating. Each stroke spreads across the paper in a new tone, beautifully transitioning into a different shade. Now is the time to show your child how colors are mixed and explain what shades are.

Tell your child that all movements should be done easily and smoothly; there is no need to press the brush into the paper, as many children like to do. A light touch is enough. This technique works well for drawing backgrounds. And after drying, you can continue to draw the rest of the drawing.

Drawing using the Glue Pictures technique

To draw in this style you will need a glue gun. Help your child draw outlines on paper with hot glue and fill in the image with paint. Thanks to the glue, the paint does not flow beyond these contours. It turns out something like a stained glass image. Using this technique, you and your child can create a real stained glass window on glass, but then instead of simple watercolors you will need to buy water-based acrylic paints.

Traditionally, on New Year's Eve, kindergartens hold exhibitions of bright crafts and creative works by children, which decorate the kindergarten on the most magical days of the New Year holiday. We offer you a variety of .

Watercolor drawings with wax crayons

To draw a picture using this technique, you need: a landscape sheet, wax crayons, watercolor paints, a squirrel brush, leaf templates.

Let your child, with your help, draw several different leaves on the sheet. The drawing must be arranged according to the size of the leaves - first large, then smaller. Let the leaves overlap each other - this is how nature does it.

Now take wax crayons and trace the outlines of the leaves; for this you will need crayons in warm colors: yellow, red, orange, brown, burgundy. You can use several colors in one sheet. Don't forget to draw veins on each leaf, except rowan ones

And now it’s time to use watercolors - start painting not the leaves, but the album sheet from the upper left corner. Show your child how to add other colors so that one shade flows smoothly into another without clear boundaries. In this way we gradually fill our sheet with autumn colors.

Drawing with fun prints

1. Plasticine stamps

It is very simple and convenient to make stamps from plasticine - just give a piece of plasticine the desired shape, decorate it with patterns (lines, dots) and paint it in the desired color.

2. Thread stamps

To create interesting “striped stamps” you can use threads that need to be tightly wound around an object. Then the threads are painted with thick paint in the required color. Now only imagination will tell you how to apply a “striped pattern” to the surface of the paper.

3. Stamps made from folded cardboard

By rolling a piece of cardboard into a roll, you can get an original stamp for “roses”. And if you cut a “round piece” from a toilet paper roll and give it the shape of a leaf, then your child can create a beautiful composition on his own.

4. Leaf prints

This technique is familiar to many. To stamp a leaf, you can take any pretty leaf and apply ink to the side with the veins. Then apply the painted side of the sheet to the paper and iron it. After a few seconds, you can carefully lift the leaf - its imprint will remain on the paper.

5. Prints with potatoes, carrots, apples

This is a fairly popular technique for young children. You will need any vegetable or fruit and gouache. Then everything is simple - dip the object in paint and make an imprint on paper.

Stamps can be made from apples, potatoes, carrots, peppers and other vegetables or fruits. The easiest way is to make a stamp from potatoes. If you have metal cookie cutters, simply press the cookie cutter into the potatoes and use a knife to carefully trim off any excess pieces around the edges.

Drawing with soap bubbles

It will be very interesting for the child to draw a picture with soap bubbles. To do this, add any soap solution and paint to a glass of water and use a straw to make a strong foam. Carefully place a sheet of paper on the bubbles and wait for the first patterns to appear. You can lift the paper - the bubble patterns are ready.

Painting with salt

To add a whimsical texture to the background of your painting, you can use salt when depicting any landscape. While the paint has not yet dried, the background must be sprinkled with salt. It absorbs excess water, sticks and creates a very interesting effect. Excess salt should be carefully shaken off after drying. Unusual light spots will remain in its place.

There is another incredibly interesting option for painting with salt. To do this, you need to draw a picture with a pencil, and then circle it with PVA glue. It can be a simple flower, patterns or geometric shapes. We don't regret glue. Sprinkle the design generously with salt, and then carefully shake off the excess onto the tray. Now let's add colors - you can paint with a brush, or you can take a pipette and apply colored water drop by drop onto the drawing. You will be able to see how the drops spread and create bright patterns and shapes.

Drawing with crumpled paper.

Using a crumpled napkin or paper you can create an unusual texture. There are two ways to do this technique:

Monotype

This unusual drawing technique is based on a unique print that can only be produced in a single copy. Therefore, it is impossible to create two absolutely identical drawings.

Elena Nikitina

Drawing one of the children's favorite activities. Drawing in unusual ways evokes even more positive emotions in children. Using unconventional drawing techniques development of thinking, imagination, fantasy, creative abilities. The child develops an interest in drawing, as a result, the desire to create.

Today I will tell you and show you how paint without using a brush.

1. Drawing with cotton swabs. We put paint on a stick and decorate the image on a sheet of paper with dots. (Christmas tree, snow, teapot, sundress, rowan branch).

2. Drawing with palms. Pour the paint into a flat container. Dip your palm and press it to a sheet of paper. (Flowers, fish, Santa Claus, swan, carrots).

3. Drawing with cotton pads. You can use cotton pads paint, folding them in half, quarter or whole. (Moon, snowdrifts, various flowers).

4. Drawing with prints. Simple drawing method: paint is applied to the surface to be printed and a print is placed on a sheet of paper. (Use: flowers, shells, fruits, vegetables).

5. Blotography. A spot or blot of watercolor paint is made on a sheet of paper. Take a tube and blow air onto the blot.

6. Drawing with a fork. We put paint on a fork from a flat plate and make an imprint with the flat surface of the fork. Can draw grass, fence, flowers, hedgehog.

7. Drawing with thread. The best thing draw with wool thread. We dip the thread in paint and apply it to a sheet of paper and create a pattern by imprinting with the movement of the thread. The wool thread creates a fancy pattern that is suitable for depicting clouds, clouds, sheep, or an unusual flower.

8. Drawing sponge or piece of foam rubber. We clamp a piece of foam rubber with a clothespin, dip it in paint and apply prints that create the texture of the object. They are used to paint animal fur, fluffy bunches of flowers, clouds, and tree crowns.

9. Splash painting. You will need a toothbrush and comb. Take a little paint on the brush and spray it with a comb. Move the brush over the comb over a sheet of paper. You can apply paints of different colors, it will turn out very beautiful.

10. Drawing with stamps. The stamp is easy to make from plasticine. We apply plasticine to a block, cube, etc. Using any sharp object, we depict some object or abstract pattern on it. The stamp is ready. We make a pillow from a sponge. Pour paint onto the sponge. We apply the stamp to the sponge with paint. Now you can make prints. A stamp can be made from the bottom of a plastic bottle, you get beautiful flowers.

11. Drawing imprints of cups and necks of different diameters. Pour the paint into a flat plate. Dip the glass in paint and apply the design to a sheet of paper.

12. Drawing with a comb. We will need a comb with fine teeth. Apply multi-colored paint (next to each other) on a sheet of paper in the shape of a drop. Then we run a comb over all the drops of paint, connecting and smearing them. It turns out to be an amazing rainbow. You can also draw different patterns, adding drops and moving the comb in different directions.

13. Drawing with wax crayons. Using colored wax pencils or wax crayons, apply the design to a sheet of paper. Then we cover it with one or several layers of watercolor. The result is an unusual and bright pattern. (Can draw stars, flowers).

14. Scratch (waxography). We paint the surface of the entire sheet of paper with wax crayons, then cover the sheet with black gouache. When everything is dry, scratch the paint and create a drawing with lines. You can scratch with a pointed stick, skewer, or toothpick.

15. Drawing with gauze. Apply a layer of gauze to a wet sheet of paper, straightening it. The gauze should remain motionless on the paper. Paint on top of the gauze with a brush and paint. Let the drawing dry. We remove the gauze - a pattern remains on the paper in the form of an imprint of the texture of the gauze fabric. (Landscape, sky, tree, grass)

16. Drawing using plastic film. Let's draw a picture. Before the paint has dried, quickly apply the film to the drawing in the right place and carefully, using rotating movements, create wrinkles of the film on the paper. The wrinkles collect paint. Allow to dry and carefully remove the tape.

17. Monotype. Drawing symmetrical objects. To do this, fold a sheet of paper in half and draw an object on one half. While the paint is still wet, fold the sheet in two again. A print will be made on the other half. After this, the image can be finish or decorate.

18. Drawing air bubble film. With the help of this wonderful material you can very easily draw falling snow. We apply white or pale blue paint to the film and apply it to a sheet of paper with a pattern. With this technology you can make an extraordinary background for winter applique.

19. Painting with salt. Apply a design to a sheet of colored cardboard using PVA glue. We draw a picture on the theme of winter. Sprinkle salt on top. When everything is dry, shake off the excess salt.

20. Drawing with semolina. For drawing in this technique Use colored paper or cardboard. PVA glue is applied to the outline of the design. Semolina is poured on top and a sheet of paper is placed tightly on top. Then remove the paper and shake off the excess semolina. So way the next part is created.

21. Drawing with a candle. On a thick sheet of paper or cardboard, children draw with a candle according to plan. The sheet is painted over with watercolor paint. Wax images will appear through the watercolor. (Christmas tree, snowflakes, animals).

You can also use the following techniques unconventional drawing: feather drawing, finger painting, drawing on a stencil with a stamp, drawing using the poke method, drawing with soap bubbles, drawing with crumpled paper, drawing with leaves.

If your child periodically gets upset, saying: “I can’t draw this” or “it didn’t turn out nicely,” stop trying to draw according to a model, as is done in various drawing circles, and try spontaneous drawing techniques, not standard ones.

We offer you 20 OPTIONS of similar techniques that reveal...

Passepartout.

This is when a child’s doodles are inserted into a sheet with some shape cut out. Those. cut out a template, for example, butterflies and place it on top of the baby’s “drawing”. As a result, the child’s work forms a unique pattern of butterfly wings.

Drawing with feet.

Secure a sheet of paper to the floor with duct tape. Place a pencil between your baby's toes and ask him to draw something. You can create with both feet on one sheet of paper at the same time. Attach a large piece of paper to the wall and ask your child to draw something on it while lying on his back.

Frottage.

A sheet of paper is placed on a flat, relief object and then, moving an unsharpened colored pencil across the surface, you get a print that imitates the main texture. You can rub pencil crumbs over a textured surface in the same way. Anyone who has tried to draw on a table with a relief surface knows how this drawing technique can be included in a drawing completely uninvited. You can create drawings by combining the relief of several objects.

Airy colors.

To prepare the paint, mix in a small cup:

• one tablespoon of “self-raising” (pancake) flour - this is flour with baking powder already added. You can simply add 1 tsp to flour (per 500 g). soda and 1 tsp. citric acid,
• a few drops of food coloring,
• one tablespoon of salt.

Then you need to add a little water to give the “airy” paint the desired consistency.

You need to apply the paint onto a thick sheet of cardboard (if you don’t have the right brush, you can use cotton swabs).

Attention! Cardboard should not contain synthetic materials or films; use regular cardboard or very thick paper.

Place the painting in the microwave on high for 10 to 30 seconds until the paint is dry. Drying time depends on the thickness of the paint layer and its consistency.

Marbled paper.

Needed: shaving cream (foam), watercolor paints or food coloring, a flat plate for mixing shaving foam and paints, paper, scraper.

Work plan:

1. Apply shaving foam in an even, thick layer onto the plate.
2. Mix different colors of paint or food coloring with a little water to make a rich solution.
3. Using a brush or pipette, drip paint of different colors 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 or a lid cut in half.
7. 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.

Drawing with cling film.

We apply spots of several colors of watercolor or gouache paint on the entire surface of the sheet. We put the film on top and draw various lines, lightly pressing the film. Let the paint dry and remove the film. We complete the drawing with felt-tip pens or pencils.

Soap painting.

You can mix the paints with soapy water and then apply patterns and shapes with a brush. When drawing, soap bubbles are formed, which create the texture of colorful strokes.

Blotography.

Let the child drip paint onto the sheet, tilt it in different directions, and then finish drawing the blot so that it turns out to be some kind of image. Or a child dips a brush into paint, then places a blot on a sheet of paper and folds the sheet in half so that the “blot” is imprinted on the second half of the sheet. Then he unfolds the sheet and tries to understand who or what it looks like.

Drawing on a damp surface.

The technique is very simple: moisten a sheet of paper with water, let it dry for 30 seconds and start painting with watercolors. The colors spread in different directions and very interesting patterns are obtained (dawn, clouds, trees, rainbow).

Salt.

Make a sketch on paper first. Moisten it with water using a brush, sprinkle with salt, wait until it absorbs the water, sprinkle off the excess salt. When everything is dry, draw the missing elements and paint. Salt is good for drawing dragonflies, birds, jellyfish, butterflies, snow, smoke.

Wax.

Prepare a sheet of animal silhouettes that you will “draw” with a candle in advance. By painting over the drawing, the child will unexpectedly “create” images of animals.

Foam rubber or sponge.

By dipping a sponge in thick gouache, a child can draw landscapes, bouquets of flowers, lilac branches, and apple trees.

A bunch of pencils.

Securely secure a large piece of paper with duct tape. Gather colored pencils into a bun so that the sharpened ends are at the same level. Invite your child to draw.

Crayons and starch.

Pour a little starch onto a piece of paper and spread it evenly over the surface with your hands. Invite your child to draw with crayons on a slippery surface. It's better to use the primary colors of the crayons so that they give you new colors.

Colored glue.

Pour the glue into empty bottles, add a few drops of a different color to each, and you are ready to create works of art. Draw with colored glue on dark paper using the “drip” technique.

Gauze swab.

Invite your child to dip a gauze pad into paint and draw clouds, soap bubbles, snowdrifts, ducklings, and butterflies. The missing details must be completed with a brush or felt-tip pen.

Corn cobs.

Come up with some image. Dip the cob into the paint and roll it over a sheet of clean paper. Make an impression using the tail of the corncob.

Prints.

We make drawings using stamp imprints.

Drawing with dots.

The child, with light pressure from the pencil, outlines the preliminary contour of the object, then, using a dot technique, fills the space inside it, using felt-tip pens or pencils of different colors.

Painting with splashes.

The most important thing here is to master the “spraying” technique. Apply gouache to a dry toothbrush with fairly stiff bristles, a little less than you usually put in toothpaste. The consistency of the paint is slightly thicker than a paste, so water is usually not needed here. Hold the brush in your left hand with the bristles down at a distance of 3-4 cm from the paper and use the stick to scrape the bristles towards you.

The multi-colored “spray” (fireworks) and yellow-red (golden autumn) on a white sheet are very beautiful; white “spray” on a dark blue background (winter landscape).

Magic balls.

Material: box lid, balls, paint, paper, brushes, water.

Progress. Place a sheet of paper in the box and apply several multi-colored or plain drops of paint on it. Place 2-3 balls in a box and shake the box so that the balls roll, mixing the colors, creating a pattern. published

There are some artists who simply don’t need brushes and paints to paint and go further in their experiments with materials. I have put together a selection of interesting authors who draw with unusual materials and methods. I hope it inspires you to new ideas!

Elisabetta Rogai

In her work, Elizabeta uses exclusively white, red and rose wines, without attaching much importance to their bouquet or strength. The only other tool Elisabetta uses when creating paintings is charcoal - she uses it to make sketches. The peculiarity of her work is that the color of the paints on the canvas changes over time, as the wine ages and acquires new shades. The result is canvases, each of which is completely unique.

Tarinan von Anhalt (Jet Art)

The American artist creates her abstract paintings using air flows from an airplane jet engine. Tarinan's clients pay a lot of money for the opportunity to see how the artist creates, because this process itself is a small show with a risk to life. For the creation of one abstract painting, a connoisseur of creativity will have to pay at least 50 thousand dollars. Jet Art also uses his technique to decorate clothes, which he demonstrates at various fashion shows.

This very unusual style of painting was invented by the Austrian Prince Jurgen von Anhalt back in 1982. He called it “jet art” (“jet painting”). After his death, his work was continued by his wife Tarinan (a real princess). She became the first woman to create her artistic canvases using such a physically demanding painting technique. Before watching the video, I advise you to turn down the sound, otherwise there are jet engines)

Underwater paintings by Ukrainian artists

Ukrainian divers create their works at depths of 2 to 20 meters in the waters of the Black and Red Sea. Artists are so inspired by the beauty of the underwater world that they have come up with an unusual way to capture it using ordinary paint and canvas with waterproof glue. Under each painting, in addition to the title, the sea is indicated, the salt of which a certain work absorbed and the depth to which the artist had to dive. The paintings look really unusual.

Natalie Irish

The artist paints with kisses, and uses ordinary lipstick as a material. On average, one painting takes about five tubes of lipstick. The artist's first work was a portrait of Marilyn Monroe - it is with this actress that Natalie associates red lipstick. The artist admitted that creating her paintings is not an easy job, because she needs to methodically leave kisses on the canvas according to a certain pattern, constantly changing the focus of her eyes. One painting takes at least 3 hours.

Otman Tom

The Baghdad artist uses ice cream instead of the usual paints when creating his works. His works are similar to watercolor paintings and have a wide range. The artist always photographs his work with leftover ice cream and brushes on the canvas, thereby showing a small part of the process. Looks really like watercolor!
