Underwater world in pencil step by step. Abstract of GCD "Algae in the Aquarium" Drawing (pencil)

Of course, I'm not an artist, but I can portray the underwater world. Especially, I like to convey the underwater world "from the head", what I actually saw. The process of drawing, in addition to pleasure, brings me benefits. For example, I calm down in the process of drawing and can even make important decisions. Drawing has become for me a kind of psychologist who restores and heals nerves.

How to paint the underwater world with paints

If I start drawing, then only paints... I believe that only paints can convey in a very real way the color of sea water and the underwater world with its inhabitants. Preparatory activities, what you need to draw:

• dense landscape sheet;
• paints;
• brushes of different sizes;
• additional decorations for fish and octopuses.

For drawing, I use gouache. These are paints that dry very quickly. So, first you should portray the sea by painting the entire sheet with blue, blue and turquoise paints. After the paint dries, you can start drawing fish, jellyfish, turtles and other living creatures. My drawing, in the end, turns out to be unpretentious. It takes me only 30 minutes to draw. But I'm recovering. After such art therapy, I can freely keep working, think.

How to accurately convey the underwater world

Of course, drawing lovers like me can paint the underwater world from their heads just by turning on their imagination. But in order to to convey all the beauty of the sea, it is imperative:

• visit the sea and see how the underwater world looks and lives;
• see photos on the Internet;
• watch a documentary.

The best thing go diving... This is both enjoyable and useful. After seeing the beauty, for example, the Red Sea, in the picture for some 10 minutes there will be no free space. It is not without reason that I started talking about the Red Sea. And all because it is this sea that is considered the richest and most diverse. There are more than 3 thousand species of fish alone. Annually at sea ​​world thousands of divers come to see.

If you want to portray the inhabitants of the sea, the flora of this environment, then you need to know how to draw the underwater world in stages. First you draw Then you can draw a turtle, a crab, a shark and other inhabitants of the sea and ocean depths.

gold fish

If you want a fish to float across the canvas, start creating a painting from it. Position it in profile. Draw a circle for the head. Inside it, on the right, draw two small horizontal lines. This is where you start to create the underwater world. The photo will tell you where to draw these segments. In place of the top, mark a round eye, turn the bottom line into a smiling mouth, slightly rounding it.

To the left of the head-circle, draw a small horizontal segment, which will very soon become a body. At its end, two semicircular lines, symmetrical to each other, run in both directions. Connect them third - and the tail of the representative of the underwater kingdom is ready.

Now, with a smooth movement, connect it with the head, with the upper and lower sides, thereby creating a body. Draw a large fin on the top of the circle head and a smaller fin on the bottom.

Color the fish yellow or When it dries, make a few longitudinal lines on the tail and fins with a dark pencil. Now you need to decide how to draw the underwater world further - which particular inhabitant of the sea kingdom will be next.

Turtle

Start drawing this waterfowl with a horizontal oval. This. Draw the bottom of the oval. Draw small back flippers on the left side of the oval. There should also be a pair of fins on the right, but slightly larger. Between them is her head on a rather thick neck.

Here's how to draw the underwater world, or rather, first of all its representatives. It remains to complete the image of the turtle. To do this, draw circles, ovals of irregular shape on it with a pencil or felt-tip pen. On the shell, they are larger than on the flippers, neck and head. Do not forget to depict her with a small but keen eye and make her muzzle slightly pointed at the end.

Now cover the carapace with brown paint and the rest of the body with green paint, let it dry and think about how to paint the underwater world next. The photo will help you with this.

Crustacean

Let the hermit crab, half crawled out of its shell, slowly move along the bottom of the ocean. First, we create the basis for this representative of the underwater kingdom. Draw an oval in a horizontal plane, narrowing its left edge - this is the end of the shell. The other side is ajar. To show this, on the desired side of the oval, draw a line slightly concave to the left. From this hole, the curious muzzle of the cancer will soon appear.

In the upper part there are two of his round eyes, which are fixed on two muscles. On either side of them are two hermit's mustaches. Its large upper and thinner lower claws also protruded from the shell. It remains to make the shell twisted, tapering downward, paint it yellow, and the crayfish with scarlet paint, leave the eyeballs white, and draw the pupils with a black pencil, and the drawing is ready.

Shark

Talking about how to draw the underwater world, you can tell about the image of not only quite harmless, but also ferocious inhabitants.

First draw 2 circles. Place the first, larger one on the right, and the smaller one on the left. Connect them at the top and bottom with semicircular lines. The upper arched is the shark's back. The lower one is slightly concave inward. This is her belly.

The left small circle is at the beginning of her tail. Finish this part of the drawing by making the end of the tail bifurcated.

Start drawing the details of the muzzle. The large circle is the base of the predator's face. Draw in it her cunning, slightly to the left, depict a long, pointed and a little shark. In the lower part of the muzzle, place the sharp teeth of the predator using a zigzag line.

Draw an upper triangular fin and two pointed ones on the sides. Erase construction lines. You don't have to paint the shark - it already looks impressive. This is an example of how to draw an underwater world with a pencil.

Assembling the drawing

Now that you know how to depict individual representatives of the ocean kingdom, it remains to talk about how to draw the entire underwater world.

Using the principle suggested above, first draw several fish on a piece of paper. They can be of different colors and sizes. Place the hermit crab at the bottom. The turtle can deftly run away from the shark.

To make the picture of the underwater world more reliable, place plants, several bizarre corals on the bottom of the ocean. It is better to first depict the fauna of the underwater world. Then you need to paint over the background with blue or blue paint, let it dry. And only then draw corals and plants striving for light. Then the drawing will turn out to be realistic and irresistible.

Dolphins swim in the sea
And the whales swim
And colorful fish
And so do you and me.
Only we are at the shore
And the fish in the depths;
We grew up in the sun
And all the fish are in the water.
But we are similar with them:

We love to play
But we just can't,
Like a fish, keep quiet.
We want to frolic
And I want to scream
We want to have fun
And sing songs
About the blue sea
And yellow flowers
About colorful fish
We will sing you and me.
Dolphins swim in the sea
And the whales swim
We will bathe too
And he, and me, and you!
Imagine now, as if we were at the bottom of the sea. This is a wonderful world, almost fabulous. I suggest you learn how to paint the underwater world with watercolors. We will also use a paraffin candle. But what we need a candle for, you will find out later.

Drawing workshop "Underwater World"

Dumler Tatyana Petrovna, teacher of drawing, MAOU gymnasium No. 56, Tomsk
Purpose: this work is intended for little artists, teachers, parents.
Target: Draw in gouache using an unconventional method.
Tasks:
- teach to draw animals of the underwater world
- develop imagination, creativity
- to promote the development of fine motor skills, attention.
Materials: To complete this work, we need drawing paper, gouache, a brush, cotton swabs, and a glass of water.

We invite first graders to immerse themselves in the magical world of the sea kingdom.
To begin with, a water surface should appear on the album sheet. With a wide brush, the guys paint over the background with paints of cold shades.

Gouache dries quickly. After a short conversation (or a game, riddles, presentation), the guys start drawing marine life. We draw a turtle with brown paint: the body is a large oval, the legs are triangles, the head is a small oval.

Another amazing and beautiful inhabitant of the seas is jellyfish. We paint it with lilac (or purple) paint. Semicircular body, ornate tentacles.

And of course it is difficult to imagine the sea without fish, beautiful, unusual, fabulous. With ocher (or yellow paint) we paint the body of an oval fish.

Cotton swabs have been used as a drawing material for a long time. But for little artists, it is always very unusual and intriguing. I propose to decorate our heroes with patterns using cotton swabs.

We dip a cotton swab into the paint, apply it to the drawing, creating patterns. We continue to decorate the turtle. For each color we use a new stick, put them in a glass.

To decorate the jellyfish, we use pink tones. I suggest the guys mix white and pink paints to get a new shade. We also mix purple and white helmets. The guys apply the patterns at their discretion.

You can decorate the fish with warm colors.

We paint the sandy bottom with yellow, brown, ocher paints. First paint the algae with a brush.

The children choose the further decoration of the picture themselves. You can add other algae, you can draw stones, shells, you can draw air bubbles.

Try this work with your students and you will see what wonderful "masterpieces" you get. Good luck! Thanks for watching!
