Does drawing a lantern seem complicated? Nothing like this. It takes a little patience and effort, and even a novice artist will be able to portray an excellent lighting object. How to draw a flashlight, read below.
With a pencil
Before you start drawing, you need to do the preparatory work. It consists in the layout of the object on the sheet. We mark with an oval the place where the lantern will be located. How to draw a silhouette with a pencil? It is necessary to break the figure into pieces. The lantern consists of three components: stand, pillar and ceiling. We begin to draw from above. At first, everything is depicted primitively. You can outline all the parts with rectangles and see if you like the mass ratio.
If everything suits you, you can proceed to a detailed study. We draw the ceiling frame, light bulb and metal decor. On the column, ovals should be depicted, which are the joints and at the same time play the role of stiffeners. And in the final we give the desired shape to the base. Now you need to decide which side the light falls on. In our case, it comes from the viewer. Therefore, you need to darken the right and left side of the lamp, leaving only the center lit. And the final action is to show strokes from the light bulb.

How to draw a lantern with a silhouette so that it looks spectacular? It should be arranged in a circle and hung next to a tree. Before you draw with ink, you need to make a pencil sketch. First draw a circle. Now we place a flashlight in its center. To make it look more interesting, you can make a ceiling with a fancy decor and increase the number of jumpers. Now you should depict the chain and the fixture, which goes sideways. In the background we outline a tree. When everything is ready, you can proceed to drawing with a drawing pen. This is a very convenient ink drawing tool. You should fill the tank, and you can start drawing. Such a pen will not leave a blot and will squeeze out the mascara evenly. We fill in the pencil contour, drawing the ceiling, fixture and tree. The circular frame can not be completely circled, but left ¼ unpainted.
Ink
How to draw a lantern so that the picture looks original? You can create not on a regular sheet of paper, but on a newspaper. On a sheet with text, but without pictures, draw a silhouette of the ceiling. It looks like an uneven rhombus with cut corners and caps at the top and bottom. To the top you need to finish the mount, and below - forged decor. Now it remains to draw decorative elements and the pillar itself. Fastening a lantern with a column we draw absolutely any form. If the fantasy is not your horse, you can copy from the sample attached above. Now you should make the under-painting with watercolors. With gray and green paint we put color spots on the newspaper sheet. It is advisable not to do this thoughtlessly, but to depict in places where a shadow falls on objects. Now you need to take the mascara and make the outline of all the lines several times fatter. You can detail the ceiling by drawing strips on its cover and mount.
Watercolor
How to draw a lantern not in the usual, but in the decorative version? To do this, a little imagination. You should come up with an original form and decorative design for a lighting product. How to draw a lantern in stages? First of all, we outline the form. This will be a large circle in the center of the sheet. Now we draw a hexagon rounded at the top and tapering down. Three waves depict the roof. The next step is to connect the upper and lower points. Draw the ribs. Two ovals depict the bottom, and draw a chain on top. A large comma will symbolize the fastening, and the wavy lines below and above the lampshade will help support the composition.
Now we begin to paint. Fill everything except the lid of the lamp with yellow color and, without waiting until it dries, pour orange into it. When the first layer has dried, details can be worked out. We depict a light inside the lantern. Cover the lantern with a banner of blue and green. The last action is to circle the decorative elements in black.
