If you have lived in a village for at least some time, you have learned all the delights of civilized life. Eternal grunting, croaking, fearless birds running around, roosters fighting, pigs taking mud baths. And geese. Here we are going to learn how to draw a goose with a pencil On the one hand, the goose is an inconspicuous bird, but he has a lot to learn. For example, he knows firsthand what love is. They choose a partner for themselves already at the age of 3, and since then they have remained monogamous. If a partner dies earlier, then they grieve for a long time and rarely find a second partner. Sadness, alas. It deserves respect. Animals with such affection for others prove that relationships can be based on more than expensive cars, money, brainwashing, and a constant need for bullshit.

People learn little from their mistakes, and even less from strangers. Even with such a simple bird, you can take a good example, instead of eternal searches for answers in space, horoscopes of compatibility, dreams and other heresies.

I have not told you all the interesting things about these very common birds. To increase your intellectual piggy bank, here are some interesting points for you:

  • Little goslings can swim almost a day after birth. And they are actively doing this for the development of muscles. If you suddenly have a delusional thought to drown goslings, you flew with a bang.
  • Birds are experts in aerodynamics. And the goose is far from an exception. They move in a wedge to reduce air resistance. And it looks cool if you put a picture like this with music from the Brigade, or something like that.
  • Once a year, all geese molt violently. And these are not your cat's hairballs. They go bald from head to toe and cannot fly for almost 5-6 weeks.
  • All great writers before the 19th century worship geese. And why? Because it was from their feathers that pens were made. The core of the goose feather was distinguished by its hardness and durability.
  • And also, the goose is a hero of Rome. Historical fact, during the attack of wild Gauls at night on Rome, crowds of geese began to yell and throw stones, which woke up the soldiers, and they gladly shredded all the Gauls, and threw the rest into the gap.

But, let's be honest with ourselves, a goose is delicious meat, warm feathers and large eggs. We rarely think about the nature of animals, and the chicken also wants to live. Maybe it's for the best. For if they thought about living creatures, then all of them would become vegetarians.

How to draw a goose with a pencil step by step

Step one. First, draw two circles, large and small, and connect them with a curve.
Step two. In accordance with the circles, draw the bird's body, long neck, beak and eyes.
Step three. We remove the extra lines from the first circles, outline the body itself more bold, draw the paws and the ground under them.
Step four. It remains to accurately draw the main attribute of the bird - plumage. You can add shading.
And here he is a goose. Alive and unharmed, standing and waiting for its time. But you should not wait with him, it is better to try to draw other birds.

Once I was asked to come up with a riddle in poems about a goose for a children's matinee, and the pinnacle of my creativity was "I shout ha-ha-ha, with webbed feet."

But before we start drawing, a couple of announcements.

Thirdly, a book will be released soon with, interesting and exciting, Remi Oren nervously smokes in the corner, follow the news.

Fourth, now you can financially support our project without spending money. If you are going to buy something on "Ozone", go to "Ozone" following the link from our website ("showcase" at the bottom in the right column), and a small percentage of the amount of your purchase will drop into our account. Of course, a trifle, but still nice.

Well that's all the news, now grab your easels and brushes!

Let's start drawing a goose with such a squiggle, it will be the beak full face, i.e. in front. By the way, many people say "full face", which is not true: correct - "full face", without "in". Please note: the tips are slightly bent upwards. If you want a sad goose, turn them down.

And along the beak - a smile. My right tip has not reached the edge a little, it is better to bring it.

Above we draw a head (shaped like an egg) and eyes ...

... and add the forelock:

Teeks, now the neck. Such a long (but without fanaticism, it's not a boa constrictor!) Gooseneck. If you draw it as flat as a log, you get a goose with a dull expression on its face, so the neck first narrows and then expands back:

We finished with the neck and we are drawing the belly. In form, it is similar to ours:

Wings. In my drawing, they look left-up and right-up (about 10 and 2 o'clock), you place them as you want. We draw an arc to the left and up ...

... and we come back with such ruffles-waves:

Take two:

The wings turned out to be thin enough, you can draw wide, he still has to fly to the south.

Legs. Slightly beveled sideways "glasses" (if you draw them vertically, it turns out that the goose is either standing on tiptoe, or dangling in the air).

To draw a goose drawing, we use a simple medium hard (HB) pencil, STABILO CarbOthello colored pastels, drawing paper and tinted paper for drawing with pastels. The image of a goose is performed in stages. We start by making a drawing-scheme on drawing paper, draw the details of the goose. Then we transfer the drawing to tinted paper and work on it with pastel pencils.

Draw an oval on drawing paper with a simple pencil. Draw a wavy line of the neck and middle of the body down through it.

On the line closer to the bottom, draw a larger oval - this will be a body with a wing. Draw two lines down from the large oval - the legs of the goose.

In the upper oval, draw the lines of thickening of the beak towards the head and the eye.

Add a line of neck thickness from the top oval to the bottom oval. Draw feather lines in the wing oval. On the continuation of the line of the middle of the body, draw a tail with a triangle.

Draw the contours of the head and neck with smooth lines. We mark out the wing feathers. Draw the wing and tail feathers.

We draw the legs of the goose. Draw the legs crosswise to the line of the legs with triangles with membranes. We translate the drawing onto tinted paper. Why shade the back of the paper sheet with a picture. With the shaded side, we apply it to a sheet of tinted paper and, tracing the outline of the drawing, we transfer the image to a tinted sheet. Cover the plumage with light strokes with a white pastel pencil. In brown, we pass the edge of the wing and tail. Orange - beak and legs. With a special shading or just with a finger, shade the shaded part.

Add a layer of shading with pastel pencils. Increase the saturation of the color tone downward with brown. Shade slightly.

Draw the upper edge of the plumage with a brown pastel pencil. We shade a little. Using a pastel pencil of black flowers, draw the outline of the plumage of the wing and tail. Highlight the beak and paws with a bright orange color. We emphasize the contrast of the plumage with white. The drawing is ready. We fix it with a fixative or hairspray.

The geese on the barely rippled pond are perfect for the next lesson on reflections. The main character in the picture will be a gosling looking directly at us.

The colors we need are very simple... we will tone down the Nickel Azo Yellow with Subtle Red and Quinacridone Rust. This time I had to mix a little more colors with purple (Cobalt Violet) than usual.

The skills you will receive:

  • Water image
  • Reflections

Materials used:

  • watercolor paper 6x8 Twinrocker Cold Press
  • round brush, sable Isabey # 14

Paints:

  • (watercolor M. Graham transparent watercolors)
  • Yellow (Nickel Azo Yellow)
  • Cobalt Blue
  • Cobalt Violet
  • Red-brown (Quinacridone Rust)
  • Van Dyke Brown

Stage 1

I start with a light fill with Cobalt Blue mixed with Cobalt Violet. In the background, I use horizontal strokes, and I start drawing ripples around the geese in the water.

If you are painting a portrait :), always paint your own shadows at the same time as the base for the background. You should combine them from the very beginning, as we almost never see clear boundaries between the background of objects in the shadow.


Photo of Canadian geese. Aren't they great?

Stage 2


While the drawing is still raw, I start drawing the water. Don't worry about the reflection yet, as it is much darker than its surroundings.

Pay attention to how the waves connect to one another and in which direction they diverge. If you write them wet, then a sense of reality will appear. It is only necessary to make strokes in the right directions.

Stage 3


Time to get to the reflections! Draw them in the same way as for ripples on the water: leave the light side of the wave and paint over the dark one.

For the reflections, I brush with more water, and for the geese I use a dry brush. However, where the water shimmers, you can paint dry as well. Reflections are in the foreground, so pay special attention to them.

Stage 4


Artistic advice: First you need to draw the main background, and then the reflections of the objects.

To draw a goose, you don't have to plan ahead for every brush stroke. Each subsequent action will follow from the previous one, so think better about the color. Remember that when writing with a dry brush, colors do not bleed and thus do not mix. They are mixed by overlaying one layer on top of another.

Pay attention to how each group of feathers are positioned, and try to convey this on paper. Do not paint every feather, transfer the whole group in one stroke of the brush.

Stage 5


I use a dry brush (and my own fingers) to draw the goslings. Goslings are like fluffy balls, so they need to be drawn in a very soft manner.

Draw the heads with a few strokes. Don't put too much effort into drawing all the smallest details.

Stage 6


Paint the adult goose with a dry brush more carefully. Where the light falls, let's leave more white.

Stage 7


Let's work on the goslings a little more. We could draw the feathers, but then we get the effect of a photograph, which is too boring. It is much more difficult to do without displaying all the details.

Look carefully at the object you are depicting, discard all unnecessary. We'll only keep the beaks!

"Canadian Geese on the Pond" is ready.


The motif with geese is very simple, but we know that a seemingly simple picture is very difficult to draw!

It took me an hour to get to work (not counting the drying breaks). Everything went smoothly, so one session was enough for me. To be honest, watercolor is a type of painting where you have to redraw the same thing several times to achieve the desired result. Every hand movement is important here and there is no room for error.

It seems to me that the benefits of redrawing several times are greatly underestimated. Frankly, I don't think you can achieve a good result if you work on a painting for a whole month. It will be dry and overwhelmed, unless, of course, you wrote it only once a week. (In this case, it makes sense to work for a month.) The limited time for painting is a big problem for artists.

For a watercolor painting to look fresh and relaxed, I think one or two sessions of 3 hours each (excluding drying time) are needed. As soon as you put more effort into it, it will become dry. In this case, it is better to start all over again, applying half as much paint on it as you did the first time.

If we are already talking about redrawing, then this is exactly what I had to do when I was preparing the next lesson. But I don't regret it - I learned a lot in the process.

Today's picture is very simple in appearance and this is what I do not like about it. My youngest son agrees with me, he asked to hang it in his room.


And this I painted for the nursery of my eldest son. It is a little different from my current style as it was drawn 9 years ago.

A lesson in drawing pets, namely birds. We will look at how to draw a goose with a pencil step by step. The goose is a migratory bird, but domestic geese cannot fly, they bred such a breed. Geese were domesticated a long time ago in the ancient world in Egypt, Rome and China. But in Greece he was as a pet, such as a cat or a dog in our time. Some noble persons kept 20 geese each. Geese in the wild live near waterways and in meadows, feed on plants and seeds, and can also eat insects. There are several types of geese, they differ in color and habitat. Also, there used to be goose fights, but now they have sunk into oblivion, if they carry out fights, then cock fights. And the goose is also a formidable bird, protects its offspring and the female, while it hisses terribly and can pounce and bite very painfully.

Here is our copy.

We draw a part of the head, as shown in the picture, then the beak and the eye. This is an enlarged version, we draw a small head.

Draw the goose's neck.

Erase unnecessary lines on the head and sketch out the body.

Now draw the contour of the body and tail with smooth lines, mark where the legs are.

Erase the auxiliary lines and draw the legs and wings of the goose.

To make the goose look more realistic, paint over the beak and simulate feathers, these are small curves in the most pronounced places. Also apply a little shadow on the lower part and neck. The drawing of the domestic goose is ready.
