Drawing on the theme of the autumn landscape with a simple pencil. How to draw autumn in stages with a pencil
This is the first lesson in a series about the seasons. I will tell you how to draw autumn with a pencil step by step... At first I could not understand for a long time: what should be shown in the autumn drawing ?? What comes to mind right away? True: an alley with benches, and everything is orange-yellow, and the breeze is blowing, but it's warm outside, and there is still a piece of sky in the corner. And it can also be a forest, there are different animals:, gophers,. Less often a person imagines a rainy autumn. It's closer to winter. But how do I draw autumn simple pencils? After all, this is the whole point, to show how the flocks of migratory birds change color and fall off, fly away, even wandering around the edges of the fields. Maybe there is a talented artist who can convey all this through the play of light and shadow of a simple pencil. And I decided to decorate my drawing! But first, as usual, there will be a step-by-step instruction. Grab your pencils and get down to business.
How to draw autumn with a pencil step by step
Step one. Draw a sketch. The match man sits on a tree stump. Next to it, we will designate the body of the squirrel in circles. In the background, draw the shape of the trees and the bridge. I think there will be no difficulties with this, all children can draw such scribbles. But let's move on! 
Step two. Now we will outline the contours of the girl's body, and her hairstyles. Let's add another hat. A squirrel sits nearby. We will also outline the contours of her fluffy fur. 
Step three. Now let's move on to detailing. Let's mark the place where the eyes and lips of the girl are located, we will draw her fingers. Then a few more details of the dress. Next to her we will draw another handbag with apples. And we will give one more apple to the squirrel, she deserves it. In the background we will draw a path and a bridge over the river. And then we will draw the trunks and crowns of trees. 
Step four. Erase the auxiliary lines drawn in the previous steps. Let's outline the contours of the main objects more clearly. 
Step five. It remains to add a couple of little things. Let's draw the girl's hairstyle, eyes and mouth. We detail the dress and shoes. We imitate leaves on the trees (I did not draw in detail, if you want, you can do it yourself). We depict the grass simply with strokes. The same strokes, only less often we will make on tree trunks and stumps, this will create the effect of realism. Don't forget about the squirrel too! And it should look like this: 
Step six. Now let's move on to coloring. I painted everything in Photoshop, that's why I painted it in the same place. I filmed the whole process. Those who know how to use graphic editors can also decorate. I hope I have spoken in sufficient detail about how to draw autumn, and now in fine art lessons you can surprise everyone with an original drawing! I got this autumn drawing: And what is yours? Attach your work below in the comments. Try these lessons too.
Although the Lord did a lot of problems (not counting disease, crime, hunger, poverty, war, corruption and Russian pop music), he still managed to create a good atmosphere of life on our planet. Land with water is often capricious, arranging mass sacrifices. But in some places it turned out quite well, you can even take a bunch of cute photos. But we can dig even deeper. In this tutorial, you will learn how to draw nature using a simple pencil. After that, you can take your drawing tools and boldly go to a cozy place in order to create an indescribable masterpiece. Nature is the symbolic name for everything that the eyes see. An exception can be considered perhaps plastic or reality shows, the rest refers to one formal organism that controls life and has a strange plan for the production and maintenance of its life. As an ordinary harsh boss, nature easily removes any office plankton, sometimes in whole species, and, like any girl, loves whims and antics. The last critical days of this lady ended with the birth of Hitler, Hussein and Justin Bieber, which had a tremendous impact on the state of the planet as a whole. It may seem that the nature is evil and impeccable, but in fact it does not care exactly the same as a dog for the ethnic origin of fleas in its fur. Suddenly it turns out that nature needs help, and some people piously believe in this, while they cannot even protect themselves from the local punks. If it suddenly turns out that you are nature itself, then here are your privileges:
- You are beautiful, for you are the very concept of being.
- You exist, although you will never really understand it.
- You own all the precious metals on the planet, which means you do not suffer from a shortage of funds.
- Your portraits hang in almost every house on every wall.
- No need to worry about making a mistake, your mistake will go either to the circus for freaks or to the red book.
- You can always arrange fireworks from volcanoes.
- You put a bolt on the theory of relativity, because you can be in all places at the same time.
- You can cure cancer, but no one will believe you.
Now take a pencil in your hands and gradually try to draw Mother Nature.
How to draw nature with a pencil step by step
Step one. Immediately select with lines a small pond with banks, on the banks with the same lines we will draw several trees. A few circles in the water will serve to transform into ducks. 
Step two. Below we draw tall grass, the circles slowly turn into birds. Use a thick line to carefully outline the edges of the banks. 
Step three. In this step, focus on the background behind the horizon. Let's draw the clouds there. 
Step four. Now draw small waves and shadows on the water, make the grass thicker, and shade the background. 
Step five. Sketch the missing spots on the trees and the ground, and then carefully finish the drawing by shading the ducks.

Absolutely any novice artist sooner or later thinks about how to paint an autumn landscape. It is this time of the year that makes nature unusually bright and beautiful, inspiring painters to create truly magnificent landscapes. Of course, learning how to draw an autumn landscape in stages is best done by sketching from nature somewhere in the park or outside the city. But, if this is not possible, then photographs can be used. But to understand how to draw an autumn landscape in stages for beginners without nature, or a photo, most likely, will not work. After all, drawing a landscape from imagination, you can easily make various mistakes.
Before drawing an autumn landscape with a pencil, you should prepare:
1). Pencil - you can use either a regular, but well-sharpened pencil, or a mechanical one;
2). A pen with a black gel refill;
3). Colour pencils;
4). Eraser;
5). A piece of paper.
If everything you need has already been prepared, then you can start studying how to draw an autumn landscape with a pencil in stages:
1. Draw the horizon line with light lines and outline the fence;
2. Draw the outlines of large trees and small bushes;
3. Draw the fence;
4. Draw two birches and sketch their foliage. Mark a path leading into the distance;
5. Circle the drawing with a pen for details. When drawing bushes and trees, avoid excessive detailing - you should not draw every leaf. Draw large cumulus clouds in the sky. Draw a bird on the fence;
6. Using an eraser, remove the pencil sketch;
7. Shade the grass with shades of green, yellow and light brown;
8. With pencils of gray-brown scale paint over the path and stones;
9. Paint over tree trunks with black, gray and brown pencils;
10. Using pencils of bright, saturated colors, paint the foliage of bushes and trees;

Now drawing a bright autumn landscape is completely ready! Having understood how to draw an autumn landscape, you can paint it with paints. For this, paints such as watercolors and gouache are best suited, which have extremely bright hues, mix easily and are economical to use.
Reading time: 3 minutes
Almost without exception, children love to draw, but many parents, due to their own laziness and excuses like “get dirty and smear everything around”, “I don’t know how to draw to show a sample of how to do it,” “he’s too small, he’s still full These paints "do not give the kids brushes and paints, which is a pity ... We hope that our marathon of children's drawings on the autumn theme will inspire everyone, without exception. There is plenty to choose from, dear Creators!
We have tried to collect for you the most and ideas for drawing, in order to more interestingly organize the child's leisure time when it is time for rains, "dull charm" and sitting at home. Read on for ideas of what to do at home with your child in bad weather.
Idea number 1
You need to put the dried leaves between the sheets of paper, and then paint over the sheet with solid strokes using soft colored pencils or crayons. A sheet with all veins will appear on white paper. Using this method, you can make compositions: a bouquet in a vase, an autumn landscape, etc.
Idea number 2
A similar method, only the leaves need to be rubbed with wax (with a candle or white crayon), and then covered with watercolor on a sheet of paper. It is convenient to paint over large surfaces with a wide squirrel brush or foam sponge.
Idea number 3
Paint is applied to the sheet from the side of the veins. Then the sheet is applied to the paper and an imprint is made. The effect will vary depending on which paint you use.
You can come up with many compositional solutions: the imprint of a large leaf can become the crown of a tree if you finish painting the trunk; a few prints are already a whole forest!
Prints made with white paint on a colored background look spectacular. You can combine several techniques, add images with pencils or felt-tip pens.
Idea number 4
kokokokids.ru
By blowing paint through a straw, you can paint whimsical trees. This method gives you endless possibilities for experimentation! You can, for example, draw trees on a pre-prepared background.
Idea number 5
Fill the background for the kid yourself or offer colored cardboard. Let him draw the crown of the tree and the fallen leaves, dipping his finger in the paint.
Idea number 6
The crown looks voluminous if you make it clean from colored pencils. Apply glue pointwise to the desired areas and sprinkle with fine shavings. The trunk and branches can be blown through a tube or drawn in any other way.
Idea number 7
It is convenient (and completely unmarked) to draw a crown with a cotton swab. In the same way, you can depict a bunch of mountain ash, a twig of currant or other berries.
Idea number 8
A very unusual picture can be made using foil. On a sheet of cardboard, lay out a dried leaf (several can be) with the veins up. Cover it with thin foil and gently so as not to tear, smooth it with your fingers so that the pattern appears. Cover the foil with dark paint (you can use gouache, acrylic, tempera, ink) and let dry well. Rub the painting very gently with a hard washcloth. The protruding veins of the leaf will shine, and dark paint will remain in the recesses. Now you can frame your work!
Idea number 9
Those who love textures will surely enjoy filling various silhouettes with patterns. Draw or circle an autumn leaf according to the template, divide it into small planes, like a stained glass window. Have your child fill each piece with a different pattern. You can do this with a gel pen, felt-tip pens.
Idea number 10
A similar task can be performed using the scratching technique. Paint over a sheet of smooth (glossy) cardboard and rub it with wax (candle). You can use wax crayons to create the background. Cover the surface with black ink and dry. Scratch the drawing with a sharp object.
Idea number 11
Use a stiff bristled brush or toothbrush to spray paint. This method is suitable for painting tree crowns, creating compositions based on plant prints.

And it should look like this:
Step six.
Now let's move on to coloring. I painted everything in Photoshop, that's why I painted it in the same place.
I hope I have spoken in sufficient detail about how to draw autumn, and now in fine art lessons you can surprise everyone with an original drawing!
I got this autumn drawing:
1. Select the object of the future drawing. Let it be two trees growing on a hillock by a wide river. First of all, we outline the horizon line and perspective.
2. The trees are in the foreground, we mark the trunks with two lines.
3. The next step is to designate the left bank of the river
4. Do the same with the right one, draw a winding coastline
5. It is important to be inquisitive and attentive, to notice even the smallest details. For example, to prevent trees from hanging in the air, you need to "tie" them to the ground with a small mound covered with stunted grass
6. Trees lose almost all their foliage in late autumn. So you need to pay more attention to drawing the trunk of the tree, its branches, the visible part of the rhizome.
7. No matter how hard the wind tries, and a few leaves are still holding onto the branches, they are in no hurry to fall to the ground
8. Trees grow on a high hill, show the reeds below
9. Cover the hill with shading of different intensity, so you can show the volume and texture of bare ground
10. Using hatching, draw a distant plan of the forest on the right.
11. In the fall, life practically freezes, with strokes of a pencil show the unhurried course of the river, the blurred silhouette of the forest
12. The pores are characterized by prolonged rains, cold showers. The sky is covered with solid clouds and leaden clouds
13. Birds fly away to warm lands, draw a crane wedge, which, heading south, will definitely return to its native lands in the spring.
14. To revive the drawing a little, you can show the remnants of a cobweb, in which a forest dweller, a spider, fell asleep, and fell asleep.
15. With the help of glare, we give the picture a cold look, the sun practically does not warm, frost glistens on the fallen leaves
Do not give in to despondency. If you figure out how to draw autumn, then inspiration will come and you can start drawing winter, spring and summer. An aspiring artist acquires an amazing gift - to paint what he likes the most, to travel in time and space.
Only, to begin with, we will not use oil, but artistic gouache. Instead of canvas, paper for watercolors. It is best to take the A-3 format, but A-4 will also work.
We will carry out the work in stages. We paint with a dry brush, using only gouache.
With a brush (size 15-16, bristles, flat or round) blue paint and start covering the top of the sheet with it. We work from left to right, moving from top to bottom. As we go, the paint on the brush will be less and the color of our future sky will be all Leave two blank spaces in the center of the leaf for the clouds.
Now we need a paint that is darker in tone or a little different tone. I added purple to my blue. With the resulting color, draw a horizon line and cover the leaf from it downwards, leaving a white spot in the center. This is our future lake. Do not forget that the brush must be dry. After there is absolutely no paint left on the brush, shade the horizon line so that the border becomes with a smooth transition. Also, we pass the brush along the lake. Do not forget that we are working from left to right.
Now for an interesting moment for novice artists. Mountains are often painted with a palette knife. Not all of them have it, so we will use a kitchen knife. Draw mountains. For this we need black and blue paint. To get it, take a little black and add it On the tip of the knife we pick up paint and try to draw mountains. They will consist of the highest peak in the center and lower ones at the edges. We paint with the entire flat surface of the knife. Let's try to draw gentle slopes for our mountains. Remove the excess paint with a knife.
Our mountains should dry out a little. Therefore, for now, let's deal with the clouds in the sky. Ideally, first draw the clouds, and then start drawing the mountains. But, as always, there is not enough time, so I make it faster and more practical for myself ... So, the clouds. They will be soft pink. To do this, mix a drop of red gouache with white. With the resulting color, we begin to draw clouds in place of white spots in the sky. I use number 12 bristles. I work with the tip of the brush, poking. The brush in my hand is at an angle of 90 degrees to the clouds. For children, I explain this method as "drip-drip-drip." white paint and drip-drip-drip along the upper border of the cloud, climbing onto the blue color. Imagine that the cloud is not one, but a group. Under the upper one another cloud floats. Let's draw white and its upper border. There should be a lot of white paint on the brush, so that it stands out well against the background of roses In this way, we draw the clouds to the left and right of the mountains .... Well, while we were drawing the clouds, our mountains dried up a little. Now an equally interesting activity. We need to make them more voluminous. To do this, take a white paint on the knife and apply it will be on the right half of the mountains. It will be more illuminated. We will work from the middle of the mountain to the right edge. The paint will not lie evenly, slightly mixed with the black background, but we need it. Draw from the top to the foot of the mountains. Draw some white halves of the mountains, which will be located below the main peak, i.e. closer to you.
Now we mix the white paint with the blue, we need a light blue color (not blue, darker). With a thin brush (pony, squirrel, columns, synthetic-3 sizes) apply the resulting shade to the left side of the mountains. From the top along the slope, from the center to the left You can see how our mountains were immediately transformed, how voluminous they became.
We continue ... Again with dry bristles, the one that painted the sky (after the sky, we did not wash it) with the help of black paint we "paint" the spots on the left, right and in the center (below the mountains). turned out black translucent. And dry, this is important. When there is no black paint left on the brush, you need to draw one detail: with strong pressure on the brush on the lake we apply vertical, barely noticeable stripes. Longer in the center, shorter on the sides. This is a reflection of mountains and bushes. (which we have not drawn yet) in the lake.
Let's move on to more cheerful tones. We will paint autumn foliage. For this we need yellow, red, red gouache and a brush of 12-13 size bristles. Let's start with yellow gouache. Drop-drop-drop on black spots, this is foliage. Draw on the spot as Like in the clouds, let's walk along the treetops with yellow paint.
With brown paint and a thin brush (squirrel, pony, columns-1-2 sizes), draw tree trunks in the foreground. The trunks on the left side of the work are illuminated, so we highlight the illuminated sections of the trunk with white paint.
Let us paint the foliage of these trees with yellow and red paints. Below the mountains, in place of the black spots, draw the bushes. Tip: To make the foliage more realistic, dip the brush first in red, then in yellow paint and, without stirring them, begin to draw the foliage: again drip-drip -Cap It is very convenient to paint foliage on bushes and trees with a fan brush.
So that we have a good perspective, draw a birch on the near background. Since it is closer to us, it looks larger relative to other trees. First, a black trunk with branches, then with a knife we will apply white paint to the trunk. And finish the birch by drawing yellow foliage The picture can be brought to life with red paint, here and there by painting the leaves with it.
Well, now we have reached the finish line. All we have to do is draw the lake. Let's start with its borders. Mark them with black paint. We work with bristles 11-12.
We continue to cover the coast with black paint (with longitudinal long strokes).
We draw islands of grass on the ground with green gouache, enliven them with yellow paint.
Apply long longitudinal strokes with white gouache with a thin brush along the border of the lake. Well, perhaps that's all. The work is ready.
But my son turned out such a landscape. They painted in parallel.
So, for work you will need:
container with clean water,
paints (we took the usual gouache),
brushes (synthetic, bristle brushes are well suited for gouache, you can also take ponies),
paper (watercolor is best. It absorbs moisture well, resistant to repeated washes. We took a sheet of A3 format with a density of 200 g / m2),
foam sponge,
razor blade (be careful with it so as not to cut yourself!),
about an hour of free time.
The materials are ready to go, let's get started! From the very beginning we will draw "wet", so we wet the sponge in water and carefully moisten the working surface of our sheet. You do not need to press hard on the sponge, otherwise the surface of the paper may be damaged. Such damage may cause the paint to not lay evenly.
In order to mix paints and select the colors and shades we need, we need a palette. We used a regular sheet of thick paper as a palette (you can do the same or take a special plastic one (there are quite a lot of them in stores)). We will depict the sky using cold (blue and its shades) and warm (red and its shades) colors. Why immediately apply them to the palette.
With a brush, apply a blue tint paint (choose a color that suits you personally) on wet paper at random. At the same time, we will leave a place in the sky for the sun. Then gently tilt the sheet so that the paint flows a little, creating a beautiful, natural overflow.
Now let's outline the Sun and the radiance emanating from it with shades of red. Leave the Sun itself (the solar disk) white, outline it with paint along the contour and add several arbitrary strokes that will spread on wet paper, creating the impression of natural overflows. Tilt the paper again for a few seconds to help the paint flow better.
Part of the paint, as you can see, fell on the solar disk, which we agreed to leave white (not painted over). It's OK! We wash our brush, squeeze it out of excess moisture and carefully remove excess paint. As long as the paper is wet and the ink has not absorbed and dried, this is not difficult at all.
The sky is ready. Let's move on to the image of trees and shades of green begin to outline the distant and foreground. The distant plan will be paler, the foreground brighter and richer.
Since we decided to depict autumn, we will add the appropriate "autumn" colors and shades: yellow, golden, red, crimson, etc. (show your imagination yourself. You've seen more than once how bright and beautiful leaves are in the fall!) Thus, we outline the middle plan (tree crowns in the distance, the ground covered with leaves, a path, etc.) Since we draw on wet paper, our strokes will flow into each other, creating very beautiful, harmonious effects.
Now let's take care of the trees. Shades of brown will arbitrarily designate their trunks and branches. It should be borne in mind that the closer the trees are to us, the brighter and darker the trunks will be, and vice versa, the farther from us, the paler.
Then with darker shades of green (you can add a little blue, red, brown or even black to green) select the grass in the foreground. To create a spatial perspective effect, it should be brighter and more contrasting than the middle and background. When creating grass, you can use not only the tip of the hair bun of the brush, but even the back of the brush handle (just be careful not to damage the wet paper)
Then, with separate strokes, we begin to apply leaves around the tree branches to our drawing. We use bright colors, autumn colors - red, yellow, orange, crimson, etc. There is no need to be afraid that the strokes will merge with each other on wet paper - on the contrary, the smooth flow of one shade into another will create the appearance of natural naturalness.
Now with a darker shade (we mixed black with brown), we will give additional contrast to the trunks and branches of the trees, making them brighter and clearer. This technique will allow you to give the trunks a certain volume. We will apply the strokes in the openings of the tree crowns, along the trunks and branches that we indicated earlier.
Now let's use the blade. With its help, we will create additional volume for the grass in the foreground of the drawing. To do this, with a wavy motion of the corner of the blade, you need to carefully remove the wet layer of paint by cleaning the working surface of the paper. This "scratching" technique must be performed carefully so as not to cut yourself and not to cut (spoil) the paper. If you are not confident in your abilities right away, you can practice performing this technique on a palette or a separate draft.
Now with the very tip of the hair bundle of the brush, in a dark shade of green, apply thin wavy strokes along the edges of our "scratching". This will give the texture of our foreground grass contrast, additional volume, expressiveness and naturalness.
The weather in our picture is wonderful. A wonderful autumn day. How not to take a walk, rustling the leaves under your feet, admiring the variegated colors, inhaling the autumn air? Let's add to our landscape a girl who went on such a walk. Let her be in a bright red coat, black boots and a black hat.
Now, with small neat strokes, add some bright leaves to the path along which our girl walks. Red, yellow, orange, etc.
Let's go back to our girl, draw her a hat and correct her legs, marking them more clearly. While the paper and ink are wet, it is easier to make edits.
For a more natural drawing, add small leaves along the edge of the tree crowns with the very tip of the hair bun of the brush.
The wet job has been completed.
In order for us to complete our drawing, we must wait until the paper dries. If you have a hair dryer on hand, you can use it. This will save time.
The paper is dry. Now we will apply small strokes of leaves to the crowns of trees and along their edges to give additional volume. Strokes on dry paper will not bleed, which will make them brighter and clearer against the general background. It will give the trees a natural effect, add volume. We use the same colors: yellow, red, orange, burgundy, etc.
Add a few brush strokes of the lighter shade of grass to the foreground to give additional dimension to the image.
Having mixed brown with black, with a thin brush again select (already on dry paper) some branches and trunks of trees.
In conclusion, add some more leaves with the last strokes (on dry paper, the strokes will be clearer and brighter, as if individual leaves stand out against the general background)
Our drawing is ready!
