How to draw Alice in Wonderland, children ask their parents, trying to create another illustration for the school. What to answer? To illustrate the works, it is not necessary to be able to draw well. You need to play a little with imagination and connect the imagination.
Make a sketch
How to draw Alice in Wonderland? The answer is simple: first of all, you need to prepare an action plan - a sketch. For this, the young reader must choose the place in the work that he liked the most. Next, you need to view the description of the characters that will be depicted in a future illustration. At this preparatory work ends, you can proceed to the sketch.
How to draw Alice in Wonderland in stages:
- In circles, ovals or squares, we designate the places where all the characters in the scene will be located. Those characters on which the young artist wants to focus should be closer to the viewer.
- After all the figures are outlined, you can proceed to the drawing of the environment. Trees, bushes and other exterior items should not be randomly scattered across the sheet. After layout, it is desirable that the landscape and figures fit in the correct geometric shape.
- Pay attention to drawing. The foreground needs to be detailed, and the background can be left in outline.
Draw watercolors
How to draw Alice in Wonderland with watercolors? Watercolor technique is considered one of the most complex. But most often in schools and kindergartens, children paint with precisely these paints. They are cheaper than gouache, and itβs easier to wash them from desks.
When starting a watercolor drawing, you need to have a well-prepared pencil sketch.
- The first steps will be coating the lightest paint on the surface of the sheet. It is not necessary to wait until the first coat has dried, you can immediately apply a second darker shade. Watercolor should smoothly change from color to color.
- After applying light tones, go to dark and gradually gain intensity. At this stage, it is necessary to monitor the children and not give them the opportunity to use black paint, otherwise instead of an illustration you get a dirty stain.
- After the final application of all tones with a thin brush, paint small details.
Draw gouache
How to draw Alice in Wonderland in gouache? This paint differs from watercolors in that it is a little easier to write with it. Even the dark layer can be covered with a light shade. It is better to adhere to the same principles as in watercolor: first apply light colors, then dark. Gouache has one feature: the paint is highlighted when it dries. This must be taken into account and the color applied is intentionally darker. Draw the outline of the illustration on a well-dried sheet.
