Draw a picture on the theme of space. Children paint space
Dear friends! The children and I already Today we will paint space with paints with an ordinary brush. Geometric shapes will be our helpers.
First, invite the children to recall the geometric shapes they know (circle, square, rectangle, triangle, oval). And make blanks of these shapes of different sizes.
Drawing on the theme of Space: you will need
- a sheet of paper for watercolors,
- a simple pencil,
- gouache paints,
- brushes of different numbers,
- templates of geometric shapes,
- special ruler.
How to draw space: a step-by-step master class
Step 1
- Make blank templates: circles of different sizes, rectangle, triangle, half circle.
- Try to compose a composition on the theme "Space" from the given figures.
Hint: One of the possible options is to depict a rocket.
- Lay out the patterns of the rectangle, triangle and semicircle so that you get a rocket.
- Outline the details of the templates with a simple pencil.
Using a special ruler, trace the small circles on the rocket - these are the portholes.
Step 2
- Draw the planets - outline the circle patterns.
- Add a few more small planets along the ruler.
- Pick up a suitable figure on the ruler, circle it several times at the bottom under the rocket, so you can get a fiery rocket tail.
Step 3
- Dip a brush in blue gouache and paint blue spots around the drawing on the sheet.
- Then dip the brush in yellow paint and add yellow spots in the same way.
- To draw with a wet brush white paint, paint the background of the sky, constantly dipping the brush in water and the tip of the brush in white paint. In this case, draw the brush with a wavy line from top to bottom.
- Then we paint over the fragments gradually remaining in the drawing.
- Thus, we gradually fill the whole drawing with paints. It is better to start painting with light colors. This process is creative.
- For drawing planets, it is better to mix paints of 2-3 colors.
- When the drawing is dry, paint the stars with the tip of the brush using the yellow and paint poke method.
These are the wonderful drawings that the children have.
Creative task:
- Prepare your own geometric templates.
- Create your own space theme with your own templates.
- Paint a picture with paints.

2 We get acquainted with the history of cosmonautics, with the names and achievements of our outstanding cosmonauts. Remember the names: Yuri Gagarin, Valentina Tereshkova, Alexey Leonov. The world's first astronaut, the first woman in space, the first person to walk into outer space. We look at photographs, talk about the difficulties and delights of the profession of space conquerors. How did test pilots become astronauts? What training did they go through? We dwell in more detail on the first manned spacewalk.

In order, all the planets will be called by any of us:
One is Mercury, two is Venus, three is Earth, four is Mars.
Five is Jupiter, six is Saturn, seven is Uranus, followed by Neptune.
He is eighth in a row. And after him already, then,
And the ninth planet is called Pluto.
V. Orlov
Flies into space
Steel ship around the Earth.
And even though its windows are small,
Everything is visible in them at a glance:
Steppe expanse, sea surf,
Or maybe you and me!
Practical work No. 1: "Distant space"
To draw a space landscape, we need stencils of circles of various diameters. You can use special rulers or various "improvised means".
We draw several planets with wax crayons, placing them at random on the plane of the sheet. You can apply the technique of superimposing nearby planets on the side planets, or depict one of the planets only partially.
After creating a space composition, we crush a sheet of paper, twisting it several times, and gently straighten it
Coloring the planets. To prevent the planets from becoming like grandmother's balls with threads, we draw very carefully with crayons, do not go over the edges.
Before starting to work in color, we remember how forests, mountains, deserts and oceans look from space, we think about whether all planets can look the same? Fiery and foggy, sandy, gaseous and icy - they can look absolutely fantastic. Coming up with complex color combinations.
Cover the entire sheet with black watercolor. The paint, accumulating in the cracks, creates the mysterious depth of outer space.
Practical work No. 2: "Spacewalk"
For this work, we need a figure of an astronaut in a spacesuit, circles of various diameters and a silhouette of a rocket.
We place all the shapes on the sheet in random order. We start with a rocket and an astronaut. Then we add the planets.
We delimit the planes inside the silhouettes. We add portholes on the rocket, we divide the spacesuit into separate parts. We begin to paint the rocket, the astronaut and the planets in stages. In order to create a festive atmosphere, we take bright, juicy colors.
Add stars. We take yellow and white crayons. We place them in small groups, in the form of constellations, or line them up (like the milky way). Each star is a distant - distant sun, around which the planets can revolve and there can be life on them.
We take a brush and black paint (watercolor or gouache) and start painting over the whole work. First, draw lines along the edge of the sheet, then work across the entire sheet.
Until the paint has dried, "salt" the drawing. In the place where a grain of salt fell, the paint seems to collect, and the cosmos with the help of this technique again becomes deep and mysterious.
Children's work (5-6 years old)
Drawing options
Flying saucers (UFOs) can be very diverse. Turning on the imagination, we depict alien aircraft.

Today the whole world is celebrating the anniversary of the beginning of human exploration of a fundamentally new essence - the Cosmos! On April 12, 1961, Yuri Gagarin made a space flight for the first time in history and thus opened a new era of mankind.
An exhibition of children's drawings on a space theme has opened in Rostov today: We are descendants of Gagarin. Space relay-Rostov.
It was interesting to see how children imagine space, how they see the space future, what they expect from it and whether they dream of becoming astronauts.
There are many photos from the exhibition under the cut.
Figures can be conditionally divided into several categories. Some differed in the detailing of the technical part of the spacecraft:
(this one is generally done in pastel)
Others reflected the story:
Still others imagined everyday scenes of the cosmic future:
Space trains, railway station, spacecraft parking. The curtains on the windows of the train are great!
And here we can see orbital stores: plants and flowers, household appliances, honey. laboratory. I would venture to suggest that small buildings are fast food outlets: shawarma, tasty food, "coffee to go", etc.
Of course, it was not without aliens:
The title of the picture is "Hello friend!" It's nice that the children are in a peaceful mood. The culture of aggression has not yet ruined them. The theme of friendship and peaceful coexistence with aliens runs through all the drawings. There are no battle scenes anywhere.
Subtle humor and good imagination. Everything is perfect here!
Catching the stars
Attractions attached to the rings of Saturn.
Flying saucer with wheels!
Only NEVZ launched its space electric locomotive :)
Nebulae and landscapes:
And some just liked:
The ship and one spacesuit are made of foil.
A total of 152 drawings from 15 educational institutions in Rostov and the region are at the exhibition. There are many interesting works. The exhibition will be held from 12 to 20 April at the Rostov House of Creativity for Children and Youth (former Palace of Pioneers, Sadovaya, 53-55). Free admission.
The exhibition is important in that it actualizes the theme of space as such. Children fantasize and draw interesting stories. But it's sad that they stopped dreaming about space - to the question "who do you want to become?" none of the authors of the drawings answered "cosmonaut". A football player, a lawyer, a businessman ... Meanwhile, man and Humanity have a much higher purpose than business and football. It is necessary by all means to kindle the thirst for the expansion of space, to convey the value of this path. And the more active the space theme will sound on the agenda, the more chances we, earthlings, will have to return to the path of development and achieve outstanding results on a universal scale!
Happy Cosmonautics Day everyone!

Cosmonautics Day and the anniversary of the first manned space flight are an excellent reason to draw a bright and colorful thematic drawing with pencils or paints together with the guys. An alluring inky blue distance, fiery comets, multi-colored planets and placers of shining stars ... All this can usually be depicted with a brush with watercolors.
