Tip 1: How to draw a seabed
Tip 1: How to draw a seabed
In the tropical sea, the bottom can be seen for hours,because the animals and plants that inhabit it are very picturesque and interesting. After the excursion with scuba-diving, I want to transfer the impressions on paper, adding new details and details.
You will need
- - paper;
- - a pencil;
- - The eraser;
- - paints.
Instructions
1
First, sketch the future drawingwith a pencil. Mark a ripple of sand, diverging waves, designate air bubbles. Seashells, algae, stones, fish, jellyfish, etc. should necessarily be present on the seabed. Draw them while schematically, the lines must be thin and barely noticeable, so that they are easier to erase and fix.
2
Try to leave the boundary between the water and the bottom,so that color does not mix colors. Now you can detail the drawing in more detail. Mark the shells on the relief and natural pattern, on the body of jellyfish should be present suckers at the bottom of the rays. Draw fins, tails and fish heads.
3
In some shells live hermit crabs, you can draw them, it will make the picture more believable and characteristic. Corals and algae have different shapes, give it in your drawing.
4
To make the picture more expressive andbright, depict sea horses, rays, octopuses and other marine creatures that you like. To more accurately convey the anatomy of animals and plants, carefully study their photos.
5
Some creatures masquerade and hide under the stones, so they also need to be depicted in the figure. The lumps located in the sea are worn out by water, add to them characteristic divorces.
6
You can make your drawing more colorful,if you depict buried in the sand trunk or sunken ship. Add rust to all metal parts of these items. In the hull of the ship may appear holes, it will accommodate the various inhabitants of the sea. Draw a moray eel or a shark emerging from the ship. Draw a wooden chest, overgrown with algae, with small crustaceans in it.
7
When your drawing is ready, paint it. The sand of the seabed has a beige and brownish hue. Draw the water itself with turquoise, blue and blue paint. Corals are bright red, reddish-pink or white.
8
Fish can be of a variety of shades. Do not forget the shadows and glare. Choose for them a few shades of lighter and darker colors of paint. Such a variety will make the drawing more "alive".
Tip 2: How to draw a shell
Underwater world does not leave anyone indifferent,who has ever faced him. Variety of forms, bright colors, strange animals and plants - all this creates a sense of fairy tale. Not everyone has the opportunity to create a piece of the underwater world in his apartment. But the inhabitants of the sea depths can live very long in pictures created by their own hands. Draw some of them can even a person who never specifically studied fine art. You need the desire and the ability to see the form.
You will need
- - paper;
- - a pencil;
- - watercolor paints;
- - gouache;
- - drawing with a bivalve;
- - Brush;
- - foam rubber sponge.
Instructions
1
Before drawing seashell, paper is better to be shrouded. If your shell lies on the seabed, then let this seabed be seen. Cover the lower part of the sheet with a yellowish or reddish paint, and make the upper one bluish or the color of the sea wave. Tint better watercolor paint with a sponge. Wet some of the leaf with the same sponge, but without the paint and fill it with one color. Allow to dry, then wet another part of the sheet and paint it in a different tone. Leaf is better to take a square.
2
After the pouring has dried, begindraw. Draw the outline with the thinnest pencil, so that later you do not need to erase the auxiliary lines. On that part of the sheet where you have a "bottom", draw a straight line parallel to the bottom edge of the sheet. The length of the line is arbitrary, but do not forget that the upper part of the shell is wider than the bottom, so you need to leave enough space on the sides. Divide this line in half and draw a vertical center line to the height of the shell. Divide the vertical center line in half, draw a perpendicular to both sides in the middle. They should be about twice as long as the lower line segments. Perpendicular can not be drawn at all, but simply imagine that it is, but the points at its ends need to be put in any case.
3
Connect the points on the ends of the newly drawn or imaginary perpendicular with the middle of the bottom line. At the top, connect the ends of the perpendiculars with a semicircle.
4
Divide the semicircle into an arbitrarynumber of parts by dots. Connect adjacent points with arcs. The convex part of each arc is at the top. From all points, draw straight lines to the middle of the bottom line of the shell.
5
Draw the bottom of the shell. For this line, by which the middle of the lower axial joins with the ends of the semicircle, divide into 3 parts. Connect the end of the bottom line to a point that represents 1/3 of the line, if you count from the bottom. Rounded corners, circle seashell on the contour.
6
Paint seashell better gouache. Choose the right tone and cover seashell the first coat of paint. Try to paint it smoothly, without streaks and gaps. Lines that divide the shell into sectors, draw a thin brush and a thicker paint. In the middle of each sector, apply another coat of basic paint, adding white.
Tip 3: How to draw a cancer
Cancer is such an aquatic creature of a dull greenThe color that people like more in the red color cast. It happens both small, and greater. At the picture on the picture the structure of crayfish is approximately the same.
You will need
- - album sheet
- - pencil
- - eraser
Instructions
1
In the middle of the album leaf, draw an oval, located vertically. The upper end of the figure is sharpened, the bottom is drawn with a triangular neckline. Draw your eyes cancer in the form of circles, adjacent to the walls of the head.
2
Draw the upper part of the trunk cancer. To do this, draw a triangle cutoutFigures resembling triangles with cut vertices. They must hide behind each other. Those that are closer to the head, depict almost its entire width, and located below respectively the smaller size, forming a pyramid. To the smallest part of the body, attach the same shape, but a wider triangle. This will be the tail cancer.
3
Draw the claws cancer. Slightly below the line of eye positionA short horizontal stroke that goes to the side. Underneath it, draw another one, represented by a curved line. Now, each stroke continues with small semicircles, convex parts looking outward. Then draw a large oval, just like for the head. In the side located closer to the trunk, make a cut in the shape of an elongated narrow triangle, located apex down. Similarly, draw the second claw in a mirror image.
4
Draw pupils cancer. For this, draw white circles in white circlesMugs located in the upper right parts of the eye. On the pupil, leave a white dot - to create the effect of living shiny eyes. On the head, draw the antennae, the ends of which are slightly rounded.
5
Draw six paws cancer. From the lower border of the head in different directionsdraw six narrow strips of three on each side. Precise symmetry is not respected, but the direction of the pairs of paws make the same. The ends of the paws end with a shape resembling a pig's hooves.
Tip 4: How to draw marine life
Drawing can absolutely any person, this is the lotnot only children and artists. The main desire. And if a person loves the sea and everything connected with it, then he should try to translate his impressions on paper and draw, for example, marine inhabitants. As a result, you can get an excellent gift to your loved one or a wonderful interior decoration.
You will need
- - watercolor pencils;
- - Brushes;
- - watercolor;
- - a sponge;
- - album sheet of paper;
- - pictures for an example;
- - frame for photography format A4.
Instructions
1
On a blank sheet of paper, draw a brownpencil a horizontal wavy line in such a way as to separate the third of the sheet from above. There will be a coral reef here. After that, draw with colored pencils fish - oval elongated shape with fins and tails. As a sample, use photos and pictures from the Internet or your memories of vacation. Small fish draw in flocks, and large ones - separately.
2
Draw a family of seahorses, for thisit will be enough just to draw a curved line, like the Latin letter S. Over the coral reef, where the sky will shine through the water, put a jellyfish - a hemisphere with undulating outstretched underneath.
3
At the bottom, using black and dark blue pencils, draw boulders of different shapes. Using the same colors, paint the entire surface. Draw a crab under one of the stones.
4
Right and left green and dark blue pencilsdepict the long algae by simply passing a few wavy vertical lines. Brown or dark red pencil draw algae, having the appearance of deer horns branched in different directions.
5
With a wet sponge moisten with printersmovements turned out pattern. Under the influence of water, all lines should be slightly washed out. Then, using a thin brush and not too diluted watercolor paint, add a few bright strokes to the images of crabs, fish and other inhabitants seabed.
6
Using a large brush, paint over the maskingmovements of the entire coral reef, creating pale pink, brown and brown spots (so that the color comes out clear, dilute the paint with water). Try not to touch objects that are already drawn. Consider that the background as it moves upward should become lighter, because there sunlight enters through the water.
7
Space over the coral reef paint a pale blue color. In blue, a little more saturated, draw small circles - rising to the surface of the water from the bottom of the air bubbles.
8
Wait for the picture to dry completely and insert it into the frame.
Tip 5: How to Contain Seahorses
Fashion on exotic animals can come andleave, this is not the main thing. The main thing is the responsibility of the owner, on which the life of his pet depends, whether exotic or not. When buying any animal you need to be guided first of all not by your desires, but by the needs of the future inhabitant of your home. Often, in their satisfaction, there is nothing difficult, and most problems stem from mere ignorance. To all interested I propose to read how to keep a seahorses.
You will need
- - an aquarium of at least 100 liters and 50 centimeters high;
- - the filter;
- - the compressor;
- - Algae, corals and stones;
- - frozen prawns;
- - The seahorses themselves.
Instructions
1
Skates belong to the genus of marine bony fishes. And this means that they, like ordinary goldfish, can be kept in an aquarium. However, one should not forget about the main nuance - the structure of the seahorse body, which determines its movement. These cute creatures move vertically, up and down, which is why they need special aquariums. The minimum volume should be 100 liters aquariums, and their height - start with a half meter.
2
As for any fish, an aquarium for sea horsesDo not remain a box of water. It must accommodate specially selected equipment. A compressor and a filter are vital for such aquarium inhabitants. By nature, skates have a poorly developed gill system. So their owner should especially closely monitor the water quality, if he wants to avoid diseases and even the death of skates.
3
A natural desire is to highlight the aquarium,to admire their pets from all sides. Here the main thing is not to overdo it - bright lighting will make the skates nervous and fearful. In addition, each lamp raises the temperature of the water in the aquarium, and it should remain within 23-24 degrees. To replace water, skates also have their own scheme - no more than one-fifth of the total volume once in two weeks.
4
It is also important to fill up the harmonious fillingaquarium algae, coral and various pebbles. First of all, for the convenience of sea horses - in a dream they cling to their tails for different projections. In the second, because we all want seclusion and fish, too. Only in the presence of shelter in the aquarium can you expect to get offspring, which, incidentally, the skates are hatched by males. And thirdly - a well designed aquarium always emphasizes its inhabitants. Just do not get too carried away and choke the space with plastic. Give preference to natural materials. Skates and so live quite a bit - only about five years.
5
And at last about the most important - about a food. Nature played with skates a cruel joke: they do not have a stomach, which means that they are always hungry. Most breeders recommend to indulge their pets with frozen shrimps. But not royal, but the usual size. And feed at the rate of 6-7 pieces per individual. Otherwise, you can overfeed the skates and strongly pollute the water in the aquarium.
Tip 6: How to make a seahorses of paper
The monotonous work in the office makes peopleto seek entertainment behind a working chair. Such an entertainment can be the art of origami. Adding to the lunch break a seahorse or other animal figure, you will be distracted from work and make a small warm-up for the brushes.
You will need
- - a rectangular sheet of paper
- - scissors
- - pen or pencil
Instructions
1
To create a seahorse figurine, you will needa rectangular piece of paper. A plain white sheet will do, but it's better to look a sheet of blue or greenish shade. Fold the rectangular sheet in half, taking as a base the smallest side.
2
Fold the double rectangle once again in half, taking as a base the smallest side.
3
Fold the rectangle into a triangle. To do this, attach the lower left corner of the workpiece to the upper right corner and iron the part with your hand. Unfold the part. Cut the upper part of the part by the resulting fold line. For further work, we need only the lower part of it.
4
Perform two creases to produce two protruding lateral corners.
5
Flatten two protruding corners, pressing a hand on their sharp part. Then fold the figure in half from yourself.
6
The right side of the detail is folded to its long side. Then flip the part and repeat the procedure for the other right side.
7
Unscrew the top of the workpiece.
8
Similarly, unscrew the bottom of the resulting shape.
9
Bend the skate preform along the lower and upper dashed lines.
10
To create a seahorse head, bend the top of the part. And to form the tail part of it, bend the bottom corner up.
11
Finally, form the tail and nose of the seahorse, bending once more the upper and lower part of the workpiece.
12
If you were making a seahorses out of ordinary white paper, then darken the folds with a simple pencil or ballpoint pen. The figure is ready.
