How to draw a duckling step by step?

First of all, you need to explain to your child that a duck and a duckling are different from a chicken and a hen. The duckling has a completely different nose, or rather beak. A duckling's beak is not at all like a chicken's beak. Why?

Because the duckling is the son of the waterfowl Duck. All ducks are waterfowl. That is, they can walk on the ground and hunt for worms somewhere under a bush or in the grass. But they can also eat and sleep in water. That's why they have beaks like spatulas and legs like small oars. This is to make it easier to eat, sleep and swim in the water. A chicken does not have such legs. He can only live on earth.

The duck, and therefore the duckling, is similar in shape to the swan. Only their neck is somewhat shorter. Therefore, in order to correctly draw a duckling, a child must first draw the simplest of what he already knows: just below the center of a sheet of paper, draw a large elongated body, that is, a large elongated oval, to it you must draw a sketch of the paws, and then also a circle, like sketch of the future head:

From the circle to the side, the child draws a triangle of the beak. Then, using oval elements, you need to connect the head and body and outline the duckling’s legs, like flippers or like a maple leaf

Now the last details remain - to designate the duckling's eye and depict its fluffy feathers, outlining its body with a wavy line of a tousled duckling. Now you need to erase all the extra pencil lines of the sketch and the duckling is ready, all that remains is to color it:

You can do this: First, as always, first draw a large circle, and then divide the circle in half with a horizontal line. This will be the duck's head

Secondly, we designate the duckling’s beak spatula.

Thirdly, having outlined the beak, we draw a circle, giving it the shape of a duckling’s head, but we do not close it at the top of the circle, but move the pencil upward, making a tuft on the duckling’s head. On the duckling's face we denote the eyes and bow tie.

And fourthly, you need to draw the body of the duckling, adding a small wing and legs of the duckling. Then you need to erase all the extra lines of the sketch, clearly outline the drawing with a pencil or marker

Now all that remains is to have fun coloring the duckling.

Children - preschoolers and schoolchildren - draw butterflies with great pleasure. Very young children ask their parents to draw butterflies. But not everyone can immediately and beautifully draw this graceful insect. Why do butterflies attract children's attention so much? They have beauty and grace, which invariably fascinates both children and adults. Butterflies can be drawn either simply with pencils or with paints. The use of the latter makes the drawing bright and unusual. To make the drawing beautiful, you need to learn how to correctly draw the body and wings of an insect, and then start drawing patterns on the wings. So, let's start drawing butterflies step by step using a simple pencil.

How to draw a duckling and a butterfly step by step

First we draw a duckling

Stage 1 - first we draw the head - it will be round. Next, we add a slightly elongated body to it, drawing another small circle for this, connecting it with smooth lines to the head

Stage 2 - then we draw a beak (of any shape), legs, eyes. All this can be depicted relying on children's imagination.

Stage 4 - We complete our drawing with an arbitrary design - we draw grass and pebbles near the duckling, thereby creating the feeling of the duckling being in a clearing. We will depict, as it were, membranes on the paws. Using an eraser, remove unnecessary lines, trying not to disturb the overall drawing.

Stage 5 - now let’s color the resulting drawing.

Our wonderful duckling is ready.

Draw a butterfly

Stage 1 - draw a straight line with a pencil and “string” a circle on it - this will be the head of the butterfly, behind it a small oval - this will be the front part of the body, and then a longer oval - this will be the tail part of the body. That's it, the butterfly's body is ready.

Stage 2 - Draw wings to the body. the upper ones are attached to the middle oval. It is better to draw the lower wings a little smaller in size. We draw the wings in any shape we like, but always symmetrically. We draw mustaches.

Stage 3 - draw patterns on the wings in the form of eyes.

Stage 4 - Erase the main line with an eraser.

Stage 5 - now we paint our butterfly with paints or pencils, the drawing will become bright and impressive.

As you can see, drawing a butterfly is not difficult.

Let’s imagine that one sunny day your child comes home from school and says: “Mom, we were asked to draw a duck in class, help me, I can’t do it.” Almost every parent has encountered such a problem at least once in their life. With a sigh, you take up the album and see the inept attempts to draw this pet bird in class. A duck is a waterfowl. She looks more like a swan than a simple bird. Let's remember Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale “The Ugly Duckling”. After all, for a very long time no one could understand whose chick the main character was.

In contact with

If you start drawing with your child, we suggest that while drawing you tell him a couple of unusual facts about these birds:

Ducks mistake the first creature they see after they are born for their mother. Therefore, there were many cases when dogs, cats, geese, and chickens became the “mother” of ducklings.

Ducks do not get wet in water because their feathers are covered with fat.

Despite the fact that the duck's neck seems very short, these birds have even more vertebrae than the giraffe.

Now let's try to draw a duck. This is quite easy to do, you can start drawing with your baby. Good luck!

How to draw a duck

To work we will need the following tools:

• A piece of paper.
• Pencil.
• A simple eraser.
•  Long ruler.

Description of the drawing process.

• Additional lines.

First, draw additional lines on a piece of paper using a ruler or with your own hands. Next, at the intersection of the lines we will make a circle.

• Head.

On the left above the circle, at a small distance, draw a small oval. This will be the head of our duck.

• Neck.

Now we connect the head with the body with 2 straight lines.

• Body and tail.

Below under the neck we will draw another circle and slightly correct the body of the bird. Then we will draw a tail. In a duck, it is short and rises slightly upward.

Erase the extra lines.

We will only have the outline of the bird left.

• Beak.

It's the beak's turn. It is huge, but not sharp, but round. Due to the unusual structure of the beak, it always seems that the duck is smiling.

• Eyes.

Let's draw an eye, since we can't see the second one. The duck's is small and round. Don't forget about the little details.

• Feathers.

On the neck we will draw a strip similar to a ribbon. Next, let's draw the feathers of the bird. Let's try to make smooth lines.

• Wing.

The duck's wing is short, similar to half a heart.

• Paws.

Let's draw the bird's foot. The paws are also short and thin. The second leg rises a little in the air, so we do it differently.

• Details.

We create feathers on the wing, add small details on the legs and eyes.

• Coloring.

Ducks are mostly white or brown. Also, the feathers of these birds have a green tint, so when coloring you can add this color. The beak and paws are a warm orange hue.

How to draw a duck with a pencil step by step

First, you just need to decide what kind of bird you need - one of those that smoothly walks around your neighbor’s yard, or one that chats and gets into funny adventures in children’s cartoons? Let's try everything! So that you can immediately get 12 points into the magazine and your art teacher will be delighted? No sooner said than done!

How to draw a duck from a cartoon film

First, we make a circle somewhere in the center of the album sheet and a huge oval below it. After this, smoothly, giving the lines the shape of our duck’s neck, we connect the circle-head and oval-body. Next, let’s draw a small, slightly pointed arc on the left side of the oval - this will be the tail.

Then inside the circle we create a smaller circle - an eye. In front, close to it, draw a beak to the circle. And we draw a wing, for this we add another oval to the body circle, in the shape of a chicken egg tilted diagonally.

Then comes the most important moment, because you will move on to the details. Let's draw another small circle inside the eye - the pupil - and shade it halfway. Then we’ll slowly draw the head and neck along the contour, outline the body, make a wavy line of feathers on the wing and use an eraser to remove the extra lines of the former circles and ovals, and then the full parts of the bird’s body.

How to draw a duck that lives with grandma?

Let's start according to the old scheme - a circle for the head, but small, below a large oval for the body. Using smooth lines we connect the head with the body, creating a neck and a convex chest. Let's draw a tail and use an uneven herringbone to mark the feathers at its end.

Let's add an elongated beak to the circle-head, and a circle to the body using vertical lines, legs, to which we will add triangles-legs. Then we’ll draw a small eye and carefully make the shape of the beak, head, neck and, of course, the body. Let's mark the line of the wing with a slightly carved arc and make the legs. Don't forget that a duck's toes are webbed. That's it, your bird is done!

Now you know how to draw a duck with a pencil, and your child will color it on his own.

The bright yellow drawing of a duckling pleases the eye of any novice artist, because it is so similar in color and shape to a real domestic bird. Slate and colored pencils of different tones are useful in drawing.

Necessary materials:

• - paper;
• - eraser;
• - HB pencil;
• - colour pencils.

Drawing steps:

1. At the initial stage, you should draw the body and head of the duckling using simple geometric shapes. To do this, draw the breast in the form of a large circle. Then add an oval at the bottom and a small circle at the top.
   
   
2. The first sketches of the duckling are ready. Therefore, you can add to the drawing the silhouette of small wings that are located on the sides of the body. On the head we draw an auxiliary line from the top point.
   
   
3. Next, draw a small part of the duckling’s tail at the bottom of the oval. In the form of a triangle. Let's add cheeks in the form of an oval and arc lines on the muzzle.
   
   
4. We draw eyes in the form of small circles on the muzzle, as well as a beak. At the bottom of the picture we will add thin paws.
   
   
5. We will add three arcs to the paws in the lower part. Draw lines on the wings.
   
   
6. We detail the entire drawing of the duckling, but first we should work on the outline. For example, replace simple lines. We finish drawing the paws and muzzle. The step-by-step pencil drawing of a duckling is ready, so you can start coloring it.
   
   
7. Use a bright yellow pencil to completely fill in the drawing. Let's leave only the areas of the beak and eyes untouched.
   
   
8. Near the outline, use an orange pencil to trace the yellow areas of the drawing. This way we get volume on the body, head, legs and wings.
   
   
9. Let's add strokes to the drawing with a red and burgundy pencil in the shadow parts, where there are already orange tones.
   
   
10. 10. Finally, color the beak and eye with a black pencil. Let's use it to work out the shadow on the body, legs and wings. Let's walk along the contour.
    
    

A step-by-step drawing of a duckling with colored pencils is ready.
