For many people, creativity is the main meaning of life. People strive for self-expression through music, poetry and, of course, drawing. If you are far from art, but want to join it, this article is just for you. Today we will tell you how to draw aster in different techniques and on different materials.
Draw with a pencil
The first step is to outline the outline of the flower. This will immediately compose the branch on the sheet. And how to draw an aster further? The next action is to outline the opened flowers and buds. On our branch there will be 5 asters. Four of them are fully opened, and the fifth in the bud. Immediately outline the leaves, because the flowers will overlap them. We draw branches. And then draw the elongated needle-shaped leaves. We divide each of them into two parts. One of them is shadow, so shade it.
We turn to the flowers. How to draw aster with a pencil? This flower resembles a camomile. We start to draw from the core. And then draw the elongated petals. Remember that asters are different: with needle and round leaves. You cannot mix them, since we draw one branch. In the bud we draw individual leaves, and from the bottom we finish the greens. Our sketch is ready. If desired, some petals can be darkened.
Draw aster watercolor
And again, we start with the layout. How to draw aster in watercolor? We outline one flower. It will be half-open. Thus, a beautiful contrast will be obtained between the purple aster and the greenery. We outline the flower in a semicircle. In the middle of it we make a core and draw petals from it. All of them will be directed in one direction, in the upper right corner. The petals of the handle will be small and towards the center they should increase.
When the sketch is ready, go to the watercolor image of the aster flower. You can draw it with any paint, in our case it will be a stretch of purple and green. First we outline the yellow core and let the paint dry. Next, fill the whole flower with light purple paint, and immediately with light green paint we designate leaflets and a twig.
When the first layer has dried, with a saturated color of the same colors we go through the aster again. We emphasize the base of the petals with dark paint, but leave the tops light. The situation is different with leaves. We are working on the foreground in dark green, but do not touch the long-range plan, it will remain bright.
We draw asters on fabric
Image on paper is not always realistic, but often. But drawing on fabric is impossible to make photographic. How to draw aster on fabric? This art is called batik. The drawing is applied with special paints on silk. We stretch the fabric on a stretcher and proceed to creativity. First of all, we draw the outline of the flower. Aster petals do not have to be straight, they can bizarrely bend in all directions. And since we depict on one branch, and a meadow, our flowers can be varied. For example, some will have needle-like leaves, others will be drawn rounded or, in general, in the form of strings.
Having drawn a contour with a reserve, we begin to fill it with paint. In our case, we used violet to create the effect of credibility, and most importantly - recognition.
When the drawing is ready, it can be detailed. For example, draw dots, commas or bizarre geometric shapes. The main thing is that the background does not strongly strike the eye and does not distract attention from the flowers.
Draw an aster on the body
Today it is fashionable to decorate the forearm of the back or arms with various images. It can be a tattoo, as well as paint or henna. We will tell you how to draw an aster in stages. First you need to outline the outline of flowers and leaves with a thin brush. Astra will be the center of composition, so we’ll start with it. Let's draw a big circle, and in the center one more circle, but smaller. Fill the middle of the flower with yellow, and immediately, until the paint has dried, add a brown color along the edge.
Draw the purple petals. First, the first row, which is completely visible to us, and then the second row, which is half hidden. At the base and at the ends we darken the petals, and in the middle we make a stretch to a light purple color. While the paint is drying, detail the center. Put small dots of brown paint and large dots of light yellow.
Detail the petals. In the middle of each, you need to draw a dash in dark purple or black. It remains to draw the leaves. Like a regular flower, they should have a kind of zigzag around the edges. To make the composition look more interesting, on the right we will have one large leaf and one small one. But on the left there should be three. One big and two small. Fill the leaves with dark green paint and quickly dilute it with white, but only along the edges of the zigzag. The final action - the image of the contour and the study of the veins in black.
