In the world there are many different banknotes and coins, almost every country has its own currency, which has distinctive features from the rest - the image, size, color and even the material on which the banknote is printed or a coin is minted. There are collectors collecting money from different countries, but I wonder how you can draw money? Let's try to parse several options for the image of banknotes and coins.
How to draw money: coins
Perhaps, in childhood, almost every child tried this method. The image on the coin has a convex shape, which makes it possible to simply put a sheet of paper on it and shade it in pencil with a outline. You will get a kind of imprint on paper. After that, just take the scissors and cut the coins along the contour to use them in the game.
On the other hand, you can try to redraw the coin, because on one side it shows the denomination and year of issue, and on the other, most often the symbols of the country. It is easy to draw the side on which the number is indicated, attach the coin to the sheet, draw a pencil around the circle and redraw the remaining elements.
How to draw money in stages: banknotes
It is difficult to draw a bill, because it usually depicts portraits of famous people or memorial sites of the country. Such drawings are very difficult to recreate for a beginner and get a good result right away. Therefore, it is worth practicing to draw banknotes for your child’s children's store, but at the same time bringing the drawing to the maximum visual reality of a real banknote.
Steps
To do this, you should have a sheet of paper at hand, a simple and colored pencil, a ruler and an eraser.
- The first thing on the sheet is to draw a rectangle the size of which will be 5 x 12 centimeters.
- The next step should be to divide the drawn figure into three parts, two of which will have a size of 3.5 centimeters, and the third 5.
- After that, about 0.5 centimeters should be noted below and above, draw straight lines and shade these strips with a pencil.
- In the middle part of the divided rectangle, to draw an oval in which someone’s portrait will appear, you can try to draw it too, but this is a rather difficult task, and for the child such exact similarity of faces will not matter.
- The denomination of the note, the number of the banknote will be located at the edges, you can even draw watermarks with barely visible lines .
You can use another interesting method that will facilitate the drawing of such a complex object as a bill. Take the desired banknote and make a copy of it. Place it under tracing paper, or even under thin paper, then redraw the bill on a white sheet. In order to better see the bill placed under the bottom, you need to make a backlight or put a banknote on the window pane so that the sun gives the right amount of light.
