Even small children can draw a tree using the “poke” method. The master class is conducted by Vera Parfentyeva, reader of the Native Path, technology teacher, head of the circle artistic creativity for kids preschool age, a participant of our Internet Workshop of educational games "Through the game - to success!".
To draw a tree using the poke method, you need:
- gouache paints,
- brushes No. 2, No. 4,
- white paper for watercolor A 4.
We will draw this tree immediately with paints without first drawing the outline. The crown of the tree will consist of 3 tiers of different sizes. We will draw it as follows.
Step-by-step description of drawing a tree
Step 1:
In the center of the upper part of the sheet of paper, with brush No. 4, with yellow paint, we dottedly draw the upper tier of the tree crown in the form of a cloud. The brush must be held vertically. It is necessary to draw with the tip of the brush, making “pokes”. Then, inside the contour, use the “poke” method to paint over this tier.
Step 2: Departing from the first tier down approximately 1 - 1.5 centimeters, as in the first paragraph, we point out the second tier of the crown a little bigger size than the first one. I'm talking roughly, because the size of each tier will be completely different for everyone. Therefore, each small artist will orient himself in size relative to the sheet. The contour should not be perfectly even and symmetrical at the edges relative to the center.
Step 3: Similar to the previous points inside the contour, using the “poke” method, paint over the second tier and draw the third tier. Let's fill it inside the contour. Make sure that the brush is always directed vertically.
Step 4: Apply dotted orange paint to all three tiers of the autumn tree. We apply orange paint mostly on the left side at the bottom of the crown, creating darker spots, because. conditionally choose the lighting on the right. Therefore, the right side should be lighter than the left.
Step 5: Using the “poke” method, draw grass under the tree first with yellow paint, then orange.
Step 6: To the source number 2 with brown paint, draw a trunk between the tiers. Moreover, it is better to draw it from the bottom up, since the tree grows, gradually narrowing the trunk to the upper small tier. It is advisable to take paint in two shades: dark and lighter. Then the texture of the bark will stand out on the trunk. Let's draw the branches.
Step 7: Since we conditionally assumed that the light falls on the tree from the right, then with yellow paint we will add thin lines along the trunk with right side.
I want to add that children of different ages coped with the task. Some have completed the drawing of the autumn tree completely on their own. For others, I helped first with a pencil to paint on the outline and trunk.

How to draw a tree: creative tasks for children
What two groups are tree species divided into? (deciduous and coniferous)
- Name the species of deciduous trees (Sorbus, aspen, poplar, linden, elm, autumn, maple, birch and others).
What tree did you draw? Think about whether it is possible to depict coniferous trees in this technique?
- Try to draw a pine tree in this technique? How can I do that? ().
- Consider the shape of the tree. Are the crown and trunk the same size at the top and bottom? What is the difference? How can you get such a result when drawing a tree?
Why is autumn called golden?
- Read to children or learn poems about autumn:
If in the trees
the leaves turned yellow
If in a distant land
the birds have flown
If the sky is gloomy
if it's raining,
It's the time of year
called autumn. (M. Khodyakova "Autumn")
Following the summer
Autumn is coming.
yellow songs
The wind sings to her
Red under your feet
spreading leaves,
white snowflake
Flying into the blue. (V. Stepanov "Autumn is coming")

Reading time: 3 minutes
Almost without exception, children love to draw, but many parents, because of their own laziness and excuses like “get dirty on their own and smear everything around”, “I can’t draw to show an example of how to do it”, “it’s too small, it’s still full these paints ”do not give the kids brushes and paints, which is a pity ... We hope that our marathon of children's drawings on the autumn theme will inspire everyone, without exception, to be creative. There is plenty to choose from, dear Creators!
We tried to collect for you the most ideas for drawing in order to organize the child’s leisure time more interestingly when it’s time for rains, “dull charm” and sitting at home. Read ideas for things to do at home with your child in bad weather.
Idea #1
You need to put the dried leaves between sheets of paper, and then paint over the sheet with solid strokes using soft colored pencils or crayons. A sheet with all the veins will appear on white paper. Using this method, you can compose compositions: a bouquet in a vase, an autumn landscape, etc.
Idea #2
A similar method, only the leaves need to be waxed (with a candle or white wax crayon), and then covered with watercolor on a sheet of paper. It is convenient to paint over large planes with a wide squirrel brush or foam rubber sponge.
Idea #3
Paint is applied to the sheet from the side of the veins. Then the sheet is applied to paper and an imprint is made. The effect will be different, depending on which paint to use.
You can come up with many compositional solutions: the imprint of a large leaf can become the crown of a tree if you finish drawing the trunk; a few prints - that's a whole forest!
Prints made with white ink on a colored background look spectacular. You can combine several techniques, draw images with pencils or felt-tip pens.
Idea #4
kokokokids.ru
By blowing paint through a straw, you can draw bizarre trees. This method gives you endless possibilities for experimentation! You can, for example, draw trees on a pre-prepared background.
Idea #5
Fill the background yourself with the kid or offer colored cardboard. Let him draw the crown of the tree and fallen leaves, dipping his finger into the paint.
Idea #6
The crown looks voluminous if you make it clear of colored pencils. Spot glue in the right places and sprinkle with small chips. The trunk and branches can be blown through a straw or drawn in any other way.
Idea #7
It is convenient (and completely non-marking) to draw a crown with a cotton swab. In the same way, you can depict a bunch of mountain ash, a sprig of currants or other berries.
Idea #8
A very unusual picture can be made using foil. Lay a dried leaflet (you can have several) on a sheet of cardboard with the veins up. Cover it with thin foil and gently, so as not to tear, smooth it with your fingers so that the pattern shows through. Cover the foil with dark paint (you can use gouache, acrylic, tempera, ink) and let dry well. Scrub the painting very gently with a hard washcloth. The protruding veins of the leaf will shine, and dark paint will remain in the recesses. Now you can frame your work!
Idea #9
Those who love textures will surely enjoy filling various silhouettes with patterns. Draw or circle an autumn leaf according to the template, divide it into small planes, like a stained glass window. Let the child fill in each piece with a different pattern. You can do this with a gel pen, felt-tip pens.
Idea #10
A similar task can be performed using the scratching technique. Paint a sheet of smooth (polished) cardboard with paints and rub with wax (candle). Can be used for background wax crayons. Cover the surface with black ink and dry. Scratch the drawing with a sharp object.
Idea #11
Using a stiff bristled brush or toothbrush, splatter the paint. This method is suitable for drawing tree crowns, creating compositions based on plant prints.
To draw a tree, it would seem that it could be easier. But in order for you to get a beautiful, eye-pleasing drawing, you need to try hard. It is not necessary to have the talent of an artist, you can master special techniques and you will succeed.
A tree can be drawn in completely different ways. It can be a bright colorful drawing, or vice versa a black and white picture. It all depends on your mood, on the emotions that you want to convey.
By depicting just one tree, you can convey the entire environment around it.
How to draw a tree in kindergarten in stages
From a very young age, children are drawn to drawing. Yearlings will be happy to imitate you, waving a pencil over a sheet of paper. By the age of two, a child's hand coordination will allow him to draw the simplest things. At this age, many children start going to kindergarten.
In kindergarten, classes are held in which children learn to draw. They begin to hold the pencil correctly, draw lines and circles. Parents, however, should practice with the child at home. To do this, you need to know how to properly explain to a novice artist the technique of drawing an object.
Drawing a tree is also divided into several stages, which the child must remember well and master in practice. Do not try to complete the task instead of him, assigning the child the role of an observer. In early childhood, all manipulations with hands and fingers help the development of the child's speech.
Let's take a look at the easiest way to teach a child.
The first stage is to draw a tree schematically. To do this, the child must understand that a tree grows from the ground, that it has a trunk and a crown with leaves. Do not forget that we first do all the sketches with a simple pencil. We do not put much pressure on it, so that later it will be easy for you to remove unnecessary elements.
We mark the ground with a horizontal line, and draw a tree trunk perpendicular to it. In order for the tree to have a crown, where the tree trunk ends, draw a circle or an oval.
Second stage make our tree more real. Outline the trunk by adding a few roots and a couple of large branches.
AT third stage outline the crown.
Fourth stage. Making the tree realistic. We add a few more lace turns of the crown in the center, remove all unnecessary details. The tree is ready.
How to draw a tree trunk
The trunk is the base of the tree. It doesn’t matter what kind of tree you draw, whether it’s a lonely birch in a field or, on the contrary, a dense one. Pinery, you will start drawing from the trunk.
To make the tree look more natural, the trunk must be drawn correctly, regardless of whether you have a pencil in your hand or a brush. According to the rules, starting from the ground, the trunk is wider and gradually tapering closer to the crown.
If you paint with paints, then draw the base with a wide part of the brush, and the upper part with a narrower one. The line should be thin and flowing.
Try to draw so that the trunk looks alive. It is difficult to find a tree with a perfectly even trunk or symmetrical branches. Don't forget shadows and highlights. They will add volume to the drawing.
How to draw a tree branch
The tree has large main branches and smaller branches growing from the main ones. Like the trunk, large branches are thicker at the base. The type of tree determines the nature of the image of the branches. At a birch, the branches stretch upwards towards the sun, at a pine or spruce they fan down to the ground.
First, make a sketch, deciding where the branch will grow, how many branches it has, what structure.
How to draw tree leaves
Leaves are an integral part of any tree. Each tree has its own kind of foliage. If you do not have a goal to depict a tree in detail and as accurately as possible, then you should not thoroughly draw each leaf.
Let's look at how to draw leaves more realistically, for example, maple.
To begin with, we make sketches, draw the base and outline. Gradually outline the entire edge of the sheet and remove the excess with an eraser.
Add a leaf twig and veins. Fill in the drawing with color. For summer version we use several shades of green, warm red-orange tones for autumn.
How to draw a tree with a pencil step by step
Let's not draw any specific type of tree, let's draw a regular tree. Follow all the steps below and you will have a good quality drawing.
First stage.
Remember that you don’t need to press hard on the pencil, otherwise it will be difficult to erase the sketch later and the drawing will turn out to be dirty. So, first we draw a trunk and an approximate outline of the tree crown.
Second phase.
We make the outline of the trunk clearer and add a few branches.
Third stage.
It's time to draw the foliage. Decide whether the weather is windy or calm. If the wind is blowing in your drawing, the foliage should lean in one direction or another. In our example, windless weather.
Fourth stage.
Now you need to remove the sketch and draw the elements of the tree in detail, starting from the bottom. We draw bark and branches.
Fifth stage.
To make the bark more natural, the lines should be like a sketch, no neatness is needed here. Add at this stage a branch with leaves on the left side.
Sixth stage.
We continue to sketch out the foliage with rounded movements. Adding earth to the drawing.
Seventh stage.
We select the tree trunk with a darker pencil, and on the contrary, paint over the foliage softly and lighter.
Eighth stage.
Don't forget about shadow play. Since the sun is shining from above, the top of the crown should be lighter, and where the shadow is, in this case the lower left corner, a little darker.
Ninth stage.
In random order, draw a few leaves.
Tenth stage.
On the right side, we also add a little shadow under the branches.
Eleventh stage.
On the last step it remains to add highlights. For work done with paints, take White color, and if you draw in black and white, just erase a little with an eraser.
How to draw a tree step by step for beginners
If you are a completely new artist, then this method is sure to suit you. Prepare a white sheet of paper, pencils, including a simple one, and an eraser.
Stage 1 and 2. To begin with, let's draw a trunk and some thin branches.
We add volume to the branches, draw the same lines next to the existing branches, which smoothly transition into new branches. We remove unnecessary details with an eraser.
We draw foliage. To do this, with smooth lace lines, as if we are putting a hat on a tree, we draw a crown. Behind it we draw the next, larger size. Next is the third, largest crown.
Now it remains to paint the trunk brown, and each part of the crown in different shades of green.
How to draw a tree with paints
Before you start painting, you need to choose high-quality paints. It is better to learn to paint with gouache, it does not spread, unlike watercolor. So the drawing will be more accurate.
Let's paint a winter spruce with paints.
First, draw the trunk and the branches going up from it in brown. Then you need to outline the needles in green. In some places, the paint should be lighter so that the drawing is more alive. We paint over the inside of the spruce with green paint with the addition of blue.
We are waiting for the paint to dry completely and proceed to the snow. To depict snow on the branches, add a little blue to the white.
How to draw an autumn tree
With the onset of autumn, nature is decorated with all shades of red. In September, you can see a bewitching landscape, when, against the background of still green foliage, another one, already red-orange, is blazing. Hands are drawn to paints.
The autumn tree is drawn in the same way as everyone else, starting from the trunk. Draw de parallel uneven lines at a wide distance from each other. From these lines we draw twisting branches.
To make the tree look more alive and voluminous, we draw small processes in different ways, we do not repeat ourselves. We draw some branches clearly, and some as a sketch.
Next, draw the bark. To do this, we apply a lot of chaotic lines and a few tubercles to imitate a real tree bark. In order for the tree to acquire color, we draw the lines of the bark in red-brown.
We paint over the rest of the areas with a lighter brown, follow the lines, they should be in the same direction. Add shadows.
At the last stage, we add foliage to the tree. On small branches we depict leaves of orange-red color.
How to draw a beautiful tree
Each tree is beautiful in its own way. But you must admit that a large tree with roots spread above the ground and a dense crown impresses a little more than an ordinary park maple. To draw such a tree, you will need a sheet of white paper, a simple pencil and an eraser.
We draw a trunk tapering upwards. At the bottom of the trunk lines we connect with an arc. Set the direction of the roots in four directions, and draw them like curved pipes that narrow towards the bottom.
We release two main branches from the tree trunk, draw a fold between them. We remove all unnecessary auxiliary lines with an eraser.
Circles indicate the places of the crown. Grow the foliage by filling in the main circles with smaller ones with a contour in the form of small scrawl. Add a shadow.
How to draw a rowan tree
Rowan is very beautiful in winter, against the backdrop of white snow. Try to draw a winter rowan with paints.
Paint over the background with a light gray color, let the paint dry. Start by sketching with a pencil. One mountain ash grows several trunks from the ground. They are thin and branched. With small ovals, mark the place of future clusters. Now you can get to the paint.
We outline the trunks and branches in dark brown. We take a rich red color and fill in the ovals with small strokes. You will get bunches of mountain ash. Since we are drawing a winter rowan, put a little snow in white on each bunch. Using the same white, draw snowdrifts at the base.
How to draw a maple tree
The maple leaf has a characteristic acute-angled shape. Maple itself is a tall branched tree.
We make a sketch of a maple, draw a trunk and a crown cap. Next, we complicate it a little by adding a few stripes inside. We divide the crown into parts, drawing branches and partially foliage. Next, we outline the crown in more detail.<<колючими>> lines.
Color the maple in shades of yellow, orange and brown. Don't forget to add chiaroscuro.
How to draw a sakura tree
It is not at all difficult to draw a beautiful Japanese cherry tree. We use a simple pencil.
- Draw a big oval. Beneath it is a curved tree trunk. From it we draw crooked branches, they should intertwine a little and curl above the ground.
- Add more branches. This will make the tree look thicker. Get started with flowers.
- Do not draw all the flowers clearly, turn some of them only into a hint.
- Draw the bark on the trunk.
- Erase all unnecessary lines with an eraser. Get started with paint.
- Decorate the trunk with a dark brown color. Bark lines in black. We paint over the flowers with all shades of pink.
From a very early age, first mothers, then kindergarten teachers, teachers in drawing lessons at school put love for nature into the soul of a child. One of the ways to appreciate the beauty around us is the fine arts.
Children are very fond of Live nature is the best theme for this. Let's draw trees with a pencil and paints.
Master class for beginners: how to draw a beautiful tree with a pencil
How to draw a winter tree?
Inexperienced in fine arts it is quite difficult for a person to show changes in nature, and especially winter. But if not to be too strict and critical in relation to children's drawing, then you may be surprised to find that babies take this much easier. The smallest do well with white snowflakes from gouache dots that cover bare branches.
The older the baby becomes, the more difficult the technique of making a winter landscape. There is no need to strictly indicate exactly how to draw winter, developing the talent of the artist.
How to draw a tree in autumn?
With the autumn theme, things are much easier. Bright red-yellow shades elevate fantasy to an unprecedented level. And various drawing techniques allow you to get beautiful autumn landscapes.
Someone loves watercolor, someone likes working with gouache - mixing paints to get the right shade is a very exciting and exciting thing. draw autumn tree you can even use a toothbrush, spraying different shades of paint alternately with a bristle on a sheet of paper with an already drawn trunk.
Drawing on the theme is a required part educational program, as it allows you to better study the main autumn signs, master the palette of autumn shades, consolidate the ability to work with different artistic materials.
Autumn drawings for kindergarten can be done in the most various techniques using an unconventional approach, but taking into account the age characteristics of the children.
Finger drawing "Autumn tree"
For example, children 3-4 years old will be quite capable of depicting an autumn tree by applying droplets of rich colors to the main trunk with their fingers.
For such work, it will be necessary to prepare in advance a palette and templates for drawings of tree trunks with branches. We invite the kids to cover the tree with leaves, choosing the most autumn colors from the palette.
Children 4-5 years old can be offered more complex drawing techniques:
Drawing with a white wax candle
For work, we prepare thin paper, real autumn leaves (which we collect during the walk), a candle, a brush and paints.
We put a sheet with thick veins under a sheet of paper and draw a candle over it.
We cover the entire sheet with paint.
Where the candle has come into contact with the veins of the leaf, its contour will appear.
Draw vegetables and fruits:
Vegetables and fruits are another popular theme for drawing in the fall.
Drawing with wax crayons
Again we use the leaves that were collected during a walk in dry weather. They do not need to be dried because they will become brittle during the drying process. You will also need thin white paper and wax crayons.
We put a piece of paper under a sheet of paper and carefully paint with chalk all the space above it.
Where the chalk touches the veins, the clear contours of the leaf appear.
To make the drawings look more impressive, we fix them on a bright background - for example, sheets of colored cardboard.
Drawing in kindergarten (video):
Look at the video for beautiful and vibrant ways to draw on the theme of "autumn":
Autumn drawing with prints
Again we use freshly picked autumn leaves. We cover each of them with a layer of colors of the autumn palette and carefully turn it over onto a sheet of white paper. Carefully lift the sheet - a multi-colored print remains in its place.
From these drawings you can organize a real autumn exhibition.
Coloring the leaves
Children 5-6 years old can already cope with more jewelry work. We use well-dried ones, which must be handled carefully, as they easily break in the hands. We cover the leaves with different shades of paint.
It is better to use gouache or acrylic paint, watercolor from the surface of the sheet often rolls.
Having painted one side, dry it and paint the second.
In this case, the leaf itself is an autumn picture.
It turns out bright autumn leaves that can be used to create various decorative compositions.
From the painted leaves, you can make an original autumn pendant on a branch.
Coloring paper leaves
This work also requires concentration and perseverance, but less caution - paper sheets cannot be broken and are difficult to wrinkle.
We color each leaf on both sides.
We dry them and use them to decorate a group or a hall.
Autumn drawing with crayons
We cut out patterns of autumn leaves from thick paper in advance.
I put the template on the landscape sheet.
We carefully paint over the entire space around it with wax crayon, directing the strokes from the center to the periphery. We color the birch leaf.
Coloring the maple leaf.
We raise the sheet - only its contours remain, around which we see a real explosion of bright color.
Such non-standard drawing on the theme of autumn in kindergarten will help develop a child's interest in creativity and arouse in him the desire to create new interesting compositions and paintings.
Drawing and application "Autumn fly agaric"
With the help of real leaves we draw a colored background. We are waiting for it to dry. We cut out a fly agaric hat from red paper, and cut a leg from white paper. From the napkin we cut out the fringe on the leg of the fly agaric. We combine all the elements of the craft on a colored background and complement it with a dried maple leaf. It remains to color the fly agaric hat with white dots. Our autumn fly agaric is ready!
Drawing autumn with watercolors and crayons The contours of the leaves can be drawn by parents or educators - the children will have to paint them with watercolors. After the watercolor dries, outline the contours, veins and patterns with a black marker.
In this figure, the contours are also highlighted with a colored felt-tip pen.
