Master class “Non-traditional drawing technique - drawing with salt. "Drawing with colored salt on a template Drawing with salt and watercolors in stages

Salt painting is awesome. Really AWESOME!

We have done this many times over the past years, starting from the moment when Maria and her friends in the toddler drawing group were still in diapers. And now at 11, she still enjoys it (as I do, even though I'm 39!).

If you haven't tried drawing salt yet, this is your chance! I will first share a video where you can see the whole process, then I will give you a step-by-step explanation for this fun activity.

Materials (edit):

• Cardstock (thick paper) (any sturdy surface will do. We used cardstock, whiteboard, cardboard, watercolor paper, paper plates and styrofoam
• PVA glue
• Table salt
• Liquid watercolor (perfect. If you don't have it, you can dilute food additives)
• Paint brushes or eyedropper

How to paint with salt?

1) Squeeze out the picture with glue or cardstock design.

2) Sprinkle it with salt until all the glue is hidden. Shake the surface lightly so that excess salt slides off.

3) Dip the brush into liquid paint, then gently touch down to the glue lines covered with salt. Watch the paint “magically” spreading in different directions!

You can use a pipette if you want. But it seems to me that in this way a lot of paint will be shed at one time. Yet many people like this method.

4) Let the picture dry thoroughly... It may take a day or two.

Once you're done, show it off!

Making pictures with salt is the favorite pastime in our house (along with the technique of marbling, three-dimensional painting with Puffy paints in the microwave and splashing paint), as well as all the children I know.

You can use this technique and write names or other words ...

Draw a rainbow or valentine ...

... and also depict a landscape, squiggles and scribbles, a face and a lot more!

What about you? Have you already tried to make a picture using this technique with your children?

More and more original ways of creating pictures together with children are coming up with inventors. Painting with salt and - a new kind of creativity, based on the ability of salt to absorb colored pigments.

We draw with children from two years old

Drawing with watercolors and salt and glue for children from two years old is a very interesting and creative activity. If you properly prepare for work, then after such a lesson your child will always ask you to repeat this miracle.

For work you will need:

• a pack of table salt;
• cardboard;
• stationery glue;
• watercolor (preferably liquid)
• brush.

Progress:

1. For such a creative drawing, you do not need to make stencils in advance, although if you wish, you can print out any sketch with simple shapes.
2. Use glue to paint a pattern on the cardboard, such as a flower or a vase.
3. Place it in a baking dish and sprinkle well with salt. The form is needed so as not to sprinkle salt all over the place.
4. After the glue has set, shake off any excess grains.
5. Dip the brush in the desired color. Gently touch the salt line and see how the color spreads along the outline.
6. Use different colors in different parts of the picture, they will blend very nicely at the transitions.
7. Fill all taped lines with color and leave to dry. It may take one to two days until it is completely dry.

Such pictures can be on any topic, for example, drawing with salt and watercolors "Winter" will be a wonderful New Year's gift for relatives from a young talent.

Bulk paint for children from 1.5 years old

Drawing with salt and suitable for all ages, even the smallest. Already from 1.5 years old you can make a voluminous paint for your child, which he can pour directly from the bottle.

To create such a miracle of paint, you will need:

• 1 glass of salt;
• 1 cup flour;
• 1 glass of water;
• multi-colored gouache or watercolor;
• cardboard;
• plastic bottle for squeezing out paint (can be taken from under the ketchup).

Now combine salt, flour and water, pour the resulting liquid into three containers and add the desired color to each. Reviews say that little kids really like to squeeze such a mass onto cardboard, creating flickering drawings.

Option using wax crayons

This master class "We draw with watercolors with salt" implies additional use. Suitable for older children, and if you choose a complex sketch, then an adult will like such work.

Materials:

• white wax crayon;
• watercolor paints;
• thick A4 sheet;
• water;
• rock salt;
• coloring.

Having prepared all the necessary material, you can start drawing itself with salt and watercolors:

1. Print the drawing or draw a sketch yourself. For example, let's take a fox in winter.
2. With a wax pencil, draw snowflakes and the outline of a chanterelle on white paper.
3. Wet a leaf and fill the sky, moon, clouds with watercolors. You can use different shades to make the drawing richer.
4. Until the painting is completely dry, sprinkle the sheet with salt, which will absorb the paint and sparkle.
5. Let the work dry, then shake off excess salt.

Thanks to the waxy contour, the snowflakes and the fox did not blend in with the background, and the salt added a fabulous sparkle to the landscape. This work can be done as a postcard. It is not at all necessary to take a fox, you can sparkle any winter landscape with salt.

Master class for kindergarten

Kindergarten teachers most often ask themselves the question of how to diversify the creative activities of children, which are aimed at developing perseverance and attention. So, drawing with salt and watercolors is perfect for different age groups of pupils.

For crafts you will need:

• colored paper;
• white paper (thick) A4;
• scissors;
• PVA glue;
• glue stick;
• watercolors and brushes;
• container for water.

For the background, it is better to use colored paper in warm colors. Let's move on to doing the work:

1. We take white paper and fold it four times and on one folded half we make the outline of a vase.
2. Cut it out and paste it onto the background.
3. We give the children stencils so that they can cut out three circles on their own - the cores of the flowers.
4. We glue them on the sheet so that there is room for the stems and petals.
5. Now works with PVA glue. We draw the stems and petals for them, as well as the leaves of the flowers.
6. Then we draw a vase with glue. To do this, first we outline the contour, then we make a "mesh" against the general background of the vase.
7. Sprinkle the drawing with plenty of salt, wait for it to dry and shake off the excess salt.
8. When the salt and glue are dry, proceed to painting. Use different colors to make your drawing look vivid. Allow the children to fantasize at this stage.

The brine and glue absorbs the paint well, so the colors will come out bright.

Master class "Butterfly"

It is possible to draw with salt and watercolors in a different way. The master class will help you make a beautiful butterfly. It will be performed according to the same principle as a vase. Only the stencil needs to be cut in the form of a butterfly.

Creation progress:

1. Paste the butterfly onto the background.
2. Draw the outline and pattern on the butterfly with PVA glue.
3. Apply a layer of glue.
4. When dry, paint.

Give the guys the opportunity to express themselves and allow them to make any pattern for a beautiful butterfly, do not forget to draw the antennae.

Effects of different types of salt

When you sprinkle salt on wet watercolor, it collects water and repels pigment. Therefore, a different effect can be obtained from (reviews confirm this).

If you use the "extra" fine salt option, then you get small dots that look like fine snow or fog. The main thing in this technique is to catch the moment when the drawing is not completely wet, so as not to dissolve the crystals, but also not dry, otherwise nothing will come of it.

You can even use sea coarse salt. With its help, you can create various curls. Good for, for example, if you want to draw a blizzard.

The use of this technique is very wide, it all depends on your imagination. Suitable for almost all watercolor painting options.

Watercolor painting techniques

If you like to experiment with your creativity, we suggest seeing how the technique of painting with watercolors can produce real masterpieces.

The very first way to apply paint is with brushes. It is widespread and everyone knows it from early childhood.

The second option, which parents show us like a miracle, is the use of wax chalk. First, a sketch is drawn with chalk on paper, and then the background is filled. The property of wax is to repel moisture, so white stripes will remain in the place of the stencil.

Another interesting option is paint whitening. To do this, after applying the background, blot in the right places with a napkin or toilet paper. Since the paint has not yet had time to absorb, this way you can, for example, draw Christmas trees.

There are many techniques for painting with watercolors (sprinkling, sponging, and others). We've only looked at a subset of them, and we've also seen the wonderful effects that can be achieved using regular salt. Reviews say that such unusual techniques are very popular with children.

1. Organizational moment.
Psycho-gymnastics: "Ray"
Stretched to the sun
They took a ray
Pressed to my heart
And they gave it to each other.
Message of the topic of the lesson.
Guys today, the topic of educational and organizational activities is "Frosty Patterns", and not just an exercise, but drawing with a candle
Surprising moment.
Guys, what time of year is it? Children meet winter
It's winter now. Winter is a wonderful time of the year! In winter, different miracles happen! So I received a small package. Who sent it to us?
Let's see what lies in it, maybe we can find out from whom it is.
Reading the attached piece of paper to the parcel
Guys, here is a snowflake with a riddle poem. Listen carefully to guess it. Whoever guesses will raise his hand:
Stars fall from the sky, fall on the fields.
Let the black earth hide under them.
Many, many stars, thin as glass;
The stars are cold, and the earth is warm.
What kind of master did he put on the glass?
And leaves, and herbs, and thickets of roses. Children answer this with snowflakes, because they cover the ground with snow and look like stars.
Well done, guys, you are very observant, so you guessed the riddles correctly.
Introduction to the topic.
And who is the faithful and irreplaceable helper in winter? Children meet frost
Right. With the onset of winter comes cold. Frost knocks on every house. He leaves his messages to people: either the door will freeze - they are poorly prepared for the winter, then he will leave his art on the windows - a gift from Frost. Let's see what messages he sent us
I take out pictures from the parcel - with the image of frosty patterns
What is shown in the pictures? Children answer Twigs, snowflakes, icy flowers, curls and icy hooks
True, there are children here and spruce twigs, decorated with hoarfrost.
This is how Frost painted our windows without brushes and paints.
Guys, how do you think Frost draws these patterns? Children put forward their assumptions Blowing cold on the glass, by magic, throws snowflakes on the windows, and they stick to the window.
In fact, from the cold, frosty air, droplets of water that are present in the air settle on the cold glass, freeze and turn into pieces of ice - needles. During the night, many, many of them are formed, they seem to build up on top of each other. And as a result, different patterns are obtained, which we have just observed with you.
Guys, do you think we could draw patterns in such a way that at first they were not visible, and then suddenly appeared, like in Frost? No.
But it turns out you can. And I will now introduce you to this method of drawing - it is called "photocopy".
2. The practical part.
Pick up the pieces of the candle and try to run them over the piece of paper.
Does the candle leave visible marks? Children answer No
Now cover the top with any watercolor paint. What did you do? Lines that we drew with a candle appeared under the paint.
Guys, why do you think the lines made by the candle are not colored? Children express their opinions
The candle consists of wax, which repels water, so a drawing made with a water-repellent material appears after applying a watercolor paint diluted with water on it. Today we will try to create a miracle with you - we will draw frosty patterns using a candle.
How do we start drawing? Children answer to draw from the top, going down.
Correctly, so that the elements being drawn do not overlap, it is best to draw the pattern from top to bottom. Cover the finished drawing with watercolor paint. I would suggest choosing blue or purple. And so that the sheet does not get soaked, apply the paint evenly over the entire sheet, but do not run it over the same place several times.
3. Independent work of children.
I provide individual dosed assistance

4. Summing up
What is the name of the painting technique we used to create such beautiful artwork guys? Children meet photocopy
What else do you think you can draw using the photocopy technique? Children answer flowers, patterns, sun.
Our lesson has come to an end, I am very pleased with you and I really want to know what surprised you today? And what you especially liked today.

Painting with watercolors and salt and glue. Master class with step by step photos

Master class for educators. Topic:"Glue, Salt and Watercolor".

Target: Acquaintance with the new technique, demonstration of several options for its application.
Materials: colored paper "Rainbow", white paper "Snow Maiden", scissors, PVA glue, glue stick "Erich Krause", watercolors, brush "Pony" or bristle number 3, a container with water for washing the brush.

Description:

On the Internet, there are photographs in which children sprinkle a linear drawing with PVA glue and then paint with watercolors. Amusing shaggy "strings" on a black or white background look interesting. Developing this idea, we tried to combine applique and drawing, assuming that the ready-made contours of objects will help the child better play out the space of the sheet, make the work clearer, "exhibition" or "gift". Depending on the age of the pupils, the first stage (cutting out blanks) can be carried out by a teacher or a child. Therefore, it can be used to work with children from four to seven years old (from the middle to the preparatory group for school).
Consider three options: "Bouquet", "Fish", "Butterfly".
"Bouquet"
As a basis (background of the image) we take a sheet of colored paper "Rainbow" of a warm or cold, not too saturated, muted shade. It can be pink, pale orange, blue, light purple, or light green. On a bright, juicy background of "color" paper, the picture can "get lost". Cut white A4 paper (landscape sheet) into four parts.

We use one "quarter". Fold it in half and cut out the outline of the vase. One sheet can produce four different options. You can pre-roll the sheet and draw a contour for the children, or offer to create your own version of the vase (for older preschoolers).

We circle on a stencil and cut out three small circles for the middle of the flowers (or we distribute ready-made circles). We lay out the composition (the sheet lies vertically) and glue the white details on the colored background with the Erich Krause glue pencil. The circles should not be located close to the edge of the leaf or vase so that there is enough room for future petals.

The next stage is working with PVA glue. She is preceded by a small briefing. “You need to hold the glue strictly vertically, without tilting. (It flows better this way.) We draw a line, slightly squeezing the tube, trying not to touch the paper. " You can touch, but it "slows down" the hand, the line turns out with "knots". If the glue has not been shaken well, smudges may also appear, so the teacher must first make sure that all tubes are equally well filled.

We draw slightly curved stems with glue.

We add petals around the middle with “loops”, attach long or narrow leaves to the stems, drawing them in the same way as the petals.

Outline the outline of the vase

Fill the path with an arbitrary pattern. These can be straight, smooth, wavy, broken lines, circles, ovals, or just "confusion". It is advisable not to draw lines too close to each other so that they do not merge later.

Sprinkle salt on the finished work. For this we use coarse salt, not "Extra". You can take it as much as you like. Sprinkle on top, not necessarily trying to get on the glue. When shaking off, the salt will still remain on the lines of the drawing.

Gently shake off the excess by tilting the sheet and lightly tapping on it from the back. We remove excess salt from the table in a box or bucket.
Let's start working with watercolors. First, paint the flower petals. With a brush, select the desired color, lightly touch the petal, and the paint smoothly flows from it onto the drawing, filling the entire line. There are several filling options. First: all flowers have one color, second: each has its own color, third - nothing will be repeated, all lines are multi-colored.

Then stems and leaves appear in the drawing. You can take one green color, or use several shades of green.

The drawing is completed by working with patterns on the vase. There are two ways to work here: Either fill in each line of the pattern gradually, color by color, or take colors and randomly place them on the vase, observing the inevitable mixing.
The following photos show children's drawings.

"Butterfly"

This work helps children to better understand the laws of symmetry, develops memory, attention, imagination. Previewing a presentation with photographs of butterflies, drawing butterflies using carbon paper will help reinforce the concept of symmetry.
We take one sheet of colored paper and a quarter of a sheet of white paper.

Fold the white sheet in half. Cut out the butterfly along the contour. We do not draw or cut the antennae.

We glue it on a colored background with a glue stick "Erich Krause".

Now we take PVA glue and outline the entire butterfly along the contour, drawing the antennae,

Pay attention to the middle of the picture. Select the head and body with glue.

We share the wings.

The next step is drawing patterns.
Getting Started with Large Patterns

Then we add small details, trying to work on both wings at the same time.

Sprinkle salt on the butterfly

Shake off the salt
Watercolor painting is the most crucial stage. Also, at the same time, we distribute the color on the symmetrical patterns of the wings. The yellow stripe on the right is the same on the left, the red circle on the right is the same on the left.

Children's works

"Rybka"

To create this composition, we also need a sheet of colored paper and a quarter of a sheet of white paper.

A silhouette of a fish is cut out from a white sheet. You can use a stencil, and for younger preschoolers, the teacher cuts out the silhouettes.
Further steps are similar:
We glue the silhouette of the fish with Erich Krause glue, circle it with PVA glue, glue the head, eyes, mouth, scales on the sides of the fish and patterns on the fins. Add stones or sandy bottom, algae, air bubbles if desired.
The next step is sprinkling with salt. Gently, without touching the sheet with our hands, sprinkle the entire image, shake it off. We take watercolors, a brush and start the creative process. He's very addicting. Children get a lot of positive emotions.

From work experience

Introducing children to art, it is necessary to use various techniques of non-traditional drawing. There are many among them that give the most unexpected, unpredictable options for artistic images and a colossal impetus to children's imagination and fantasy.

The more varied the conditions in which the visual activity takes place, the content, forms, methods and techniques of working with children, as well as the materials with which they operate, the more intensively children's artistic abilities will develop.

The advantages of drawing with salt is that the age of children is not limited.

Safety precautions for working with salt: make sure that children do not have cuts on their hands!

First, gently sprinkle salt over the entire surface of the dark background tray. And let's start drawing on salt. We just let our imagination run wild.

Drawing takes place directly with your fingers on salt, which contributes to the development of sensory sensations, liberates and harmonizes.

By manipulating bulk materials, the child gets rid of negative emotions, relieves stress, internal clamps, while drawing, the child experiences a feeling of joy and inspiration from the resulting drawing, since the drawings are obtained, varied and unpredictable. Thus, coordination, imagination develops, memory and all thought processes improve.

Also, salt has a healing and disinfectant effect, while drawing, inhaling salt vapors, is the prevention of diseases of the nasopharynx.

There are two more ways that I use when working with children.

The first way

Apply glue along the contour of the drawing, and then, sprinkle it with salt, let it dry and shake off excess salt. It turns out a three-dimensional drawing that can be colored. Double flowers or stars in the night sky, trees with colorful autumn crowns look magical!

Second way

Draw with watercolors on wet, and then sprinkle with salt. Salt - will give the picture the desired texture. (the salt absorbs the paint). What's this? winter snowy forest will look like a real one! Now it is necessary for your work to dry out a little. The last step will be drawing the contours. You can use a black marker or black felt-tip pen to do this. It remains to shake off excess salt. Your drawing is ready .. It all depends on your imagination and the imagination of your pupils.

Fantasy has no boundaries!

These are the things we got from working for children!
