In modern society, children are comprehensively developing, because there are various thematic areas, schools, programs, master classes and much more that are not available several decades ago.
Drawing vegetables and fruits in childhood
It has long been known that the development of motor skills has a tremendous impact on the general condition of the child, the way he will speak, move, think. Drawing is considered one of the basics, thanks to which children develop not only fine motor skills, accuracy, study the concept of a color palette, shapes and objects, logical thinking, but also show their imagination.
From an early age, babies try to familiarize themselves with the simplest things that they meet in everyday life. They are very happy with animals, but the study of fruits and vegetables, due to their bizarre shapes and vibrant colors, as well as various textures, is considered no less interesting. Kids learn the world through food with special curiosity.
How to draw beets with a pencil?
No matter how simple the vegetables may seem at first glance, drawing them on a piece of paper, and even more so in pencil, is not so simple. To make it easier to understand how to gradually draw beets, we will consider the main points of this process. And on the forums of free artists or active mothers there are whole discussions, which show the whole process of drawing vegetables and fruits, including beets.
The simplest and most understandable way to draw is a phased one, when each detail is drawn in its order, and gradually turns into a result.
How to draw beets in stages?
First, you need to draw a circle on the bottom of the sheet with a compass, then draw a tail from the bottom and erase the dividing line between the circle and the tail.
After using the eraser, remove a small part of the circle from above to make room for the sheets to be attached.
Given that the beets do not have a clear round shape, it is worth editing the bottom part a little, making it slightly flattened.
Now back to the top. Where the part of the circle has been erased, it is necessary to depict a recess, but it should not have an even shape, it is from there that the stems will come out, which are first shown by curved lines that have different directions and lengths (it’s enough to draw three stems, but you can do more).
The leaves are located just above the middle, but do not occupy the entire length of the stem, do not have sharp corners. All lines are rounded and smooth.
With such simple forms and movements, you can draw beets, decorate them with colored pencils with your children or yourself.
We draw beets in watercolor
People are divided into two categories: for someone it is easier to draw with paints, and for someone with pencils. Therefore, it is worth considering both options.
So, let's take a look at how to draw beets with watercolors. Before you take up the brush, it is necessary to outline the approximate outlines of beets in order to create the correct shape in the future. We draw a small spine with a pencil at the bottom of the sheet, having the shape of an oval, after we draw long leaves and select the veins with a thicker line.
We circle all the contours with felt-tip pens.
Then you can start painting the vegetable with bright watercolor paints. The root has a burgundy hue, the veins have sharper and brighter burgundy lines, the leaves are painted with green shades, but so that the edges are lighter and the middle is darker.
Any fruit or vegetable with special interest will be depicted by both children and adults, complementing the various details in their drawing. Pick up pencils or paints, feel in yourself an artist who will not wonder about how to draw beets, but simply pick it up and do it.
