Are they really cool? 🙂

Step-by-step master class

If you did not participate in the competition, but also want to learn how to draw space, save these somewhere step by step instructions, what and how to do so that it turns out bright and beautiful.

1. In order to draw the Universe, only 3-4 colors are enough. At least that's the amount you can start with. Important: The sheet for watercolors must be very dense so that it does not wrinkle from water and so that the paint spreads beautifully and evenly.

2. The outline can be drawn with a hard pencil to indicate the space that you will wet with water. Wet part of the allocated space.

3. Apply paint to the wetted area. Try to make the contours beautiful.

4. Wet the rest of the space with water and apply a different color of paint. Selectively add bright pops of color throughout the design. The drawing must be wet so that the paint flows beautifully.

5. Once the design is completely dry, apply the stars. This can be done with white or yellow paint using an old toothbrush.

6. Some stars could be drawn more carefully.

If you sprinkle salt on a wet drawing, the structure of space will turn out even more interesting. The salt will absorb some of the paint, and if you shake it off after it has completely dried, there will be beautiful white dots and clouds in place of the salt.

On our creative Instagram @miftvorchestvo we will regularly hold competitions on notebooks “642 ideas, what to draw”, “642 ideas, what to write about” and “642 ideas, what else to write about” (new!). Subscribe to keep up to date with everything creative, interesting and creatively fun.

How to draw a beautiful and bright picture for Cosmonautics Day in kindergarten and school, our interesting and educational step-by-step master classes. We will teach children aged 3-6 years to create thematic artistic images with a pencil and decorate them with felt-tip pens, and for children in grades 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 we will reveal the secret of how to make original works, dedicated to space, interstellar flights and various celestial bodies inhabiting the Solar system.

A simple pencil drawing for Cosmonautics Day step by step for children in kindergarten

In honor of Cosmonautics Day with kids in kindergarten you can draw a very simple, but at the same time bright and beautiful thematic drawing - a rocket for space flights. If the work is done in the junior and middle groups, it is better to avoid using a compass. Children 3-4 years old cannot yet cope with such a drawing device and there is a high risk that someone will inject themselves in the process of creating a drawing. If you still want the porthole window to be smooth and symmetrical, you should take round templates prepared in advance or invite the kids to trace a bottle cap or some kind of cap.

Necessary materials for a simple children's drawing for Cosmonautics Day

• A4 sheet of paper
• simple pencil HB
• ruler
• compass
• eraser
• set of colored markers

2. In the upper right corner, depict a round sun with several triangular rays, and in the upper left part of the composition, draw a celestial body, according to appearance reminiscent of Saturn.
3. In the center above the semicircle of planet Earth, draw the figure of an astronaut in a spacesuit, and on the left side of him draw a flying space rocket.
4. Take a wide brush and tint a fragment of the globe with blue paint. When the gouache dries, draw continents of any shape on top with a green tint. To add volume, make several strokes of a lighter shade on them.
5. Paint the surface of the sky with black or very dark blue paint, carefully avoiding the figures of planets, the sun, a rocket, an astronaut, and leave until completely dry.

2. Dip the brush into light yellow watercolor paint and draw a sun and semicircles of rays extending from it in the upper right corner. Make wide movements with the brush, leaving between yellow a little empty space.
3. In the upper left corner, without going into the wide strip left on the side, draw the Moon, and around it with a thin brush, paint in the blue sky with light strokes.
4. In the sun's rays, paint two space probes with lilac and blue paint and leave the work to dry very well.

6. Paint the aircraft with colors so that they match the overall color of the picture.
7. On the left side, where the white empty canvas remains, write a large vertical number “12” in red paint and add the word “April” under it.
8. In the lower empty part of the picture, write in large blue letters “Cosmonautics Day” or any other thematic greeting, congratulation or short wish.
9. At the end, add a few strokes of red between the sun's rays, and behind the rocket make a few thin blue stripes, symbolizing flight. Decorate a classroom or school assembly hall with the finished work, where a matinee in honor of Cosmonautics Day will take place.

What can you draw for Cosmonautics Day?

Cosmonaut

You will find how to draw an astronaut in four different versions in.

Space

There are a great many lessons on drawing space on the Internet, including step-by-step photo tutorials and videos. Most often, when painting space, watercolors are used, because... it is translucent and blends easily.

I like the videos on the channel TILLITH. She has a whole playlist on how to draw space.

Here is one of her videos:

There is also a step-by-step guide on my website.

Rocket

In a recent lesson I showed:

Satellite

I found how to draw an artificial satellite with colored pencils on the website prodelkino.ru.

Planets

It’s easy to draw a planet, but it always looks epic, especially if you color it beautifully.

Below step by step lesson how to draw a planet similar to Saturn.

Step 1

First draw a beautiful and big circle to illustrate the volume of the planet. Leave a little space on each side to then draw the rings.

Step 2

Now for the rings: Draw a long, thin oval shape in the center of the circle. You can tilt this shape (almost at a 45 degree angle) to make the planet look more attractive.

Step 3

Now transform the oval shape into a nice and edgy ring. Carefully erase the extra lines.

Step 4

Then add multiple lines on the planet to create different stripes of gas. You can also add a couple more rings.

Step 5

Use several colors in shades of orange and yellow. The combination of these colors will make the planet more realistic.

Step 6

The last step is to add shadows: one on the right side, one under the ring, and one behind the planet on the right side of the rings.

A beautiful, colorful and voluminous planet, drawn in just six simple steps, is ready!

Orbital station

You will find a lesson on drawing a station.

Galaxy

Space doodles

This direction in drawing arose not so long ago and now it is mega-popular. Verbatim doodle- these are dashes, scribbles, meaningless drawings that are created mechanically, thinking about something else. Drawing space objects in doodle style looks just right. I will give a few examples that you can easily repeat with a black helium pen. And if you then color the drawing, then you have every chance of taking first place in the competition for the best drawing for Cosmonautics Day!
