Instruction

1. Acquaint the kid with finger-type paints. They will help to draw a rooster if the motility of children's hands is still insufficiently developed for drawing of geometrical figures, smooth lines. At first try to mix paints for motley prints. Let the child grease fingers with multi-colored paints, adds to the main tone of a drop of other flowers and sets "seals" on a leaf of a Whatman paper.

2. Ask the young artist to apply red paint on a thumb and a palm. On the image of a rooster you can see: its feathers are brown, orange, blue, green. Respectively, grease a children's forefinger with brown paint, average – orange, etc.

3. To add to future cock tail of diversity, drip on orange color - brown, on blue – green; continue experiments with a palette.

4. Make a print of the children's painted palm on paper. For this purpose it is necessary to spread wide fingers: is big a neck and the head of a cockerel therefore he has to settle down vertically. Other fingers - a fan (tail of a bird).

5. Help the child to finish drawing fine details. Let he will dip a finger-tip into red paint and three times will put it to the cock head – the comb turned out. Other print below - a small beard. Paws, spurs and an eye represent by means of a brush.

6. Pay attention: if your rooster turned out too "fattened", try to make other drawing. At the same time do not paint over the central part of a palm.

7. The following step-by-step drawing will demand from the child of ability to surely draw smooth lines, to draw an oval. Before getting to work, it is recommended to buy a coloring with the image of pets and birds or to print out the necessary image on the Internet. Advise the kid how to paint a rooster with colored pencils.

8. Take a dense leaf for a watercolor – it rather dense therefore it is resistant to influence of an eraser. Perhaps, the beginning artist should erase unsuccessful strokes. At first it is necessary to draw two ovals: big in the center of the sheet (trunk of a rooster) and small from above (head).

9. If to connect ovals two smooth lines, the neck of a bird will turn out. The tail can be represented in the form of several curved lines; the wing is a half of an oval and cloves feathers. If the child coped with a drawing basis, it will be easy to it to add a pencil a comb, a small beard, a beak and paws with spurs.

10. Together with the kid make a drawing inking a simple pencil, and then it is possible to start coloring of the image colored pencils. In advance decide on primary color of each detail and make on them on couple of strokes.

11. You apply on the drawing quite large strokes in one direction that they reminded feathers of a rooster. Let the child slightly press on a pencil. At first one is put, easy and soft, a layer of strokes, then new layers are put on it. Over time the young artist will be able to master more difficult technique of drawing of objects of fauna.
