Instruction

1. Think what palace you would like to draw. It can be the building which is in reality and in which there lives the true king. But maybe something fantastic. Remember what heroes of fairy tales lived in palaces, but not in locks and not in towers. For the fantastic palace it is not obligatory to transfer precisely time or style at all, it is enough to observe proportions.

2. Begin to draw the palace from the most usual rectangle. Palaces, of course, sometimes are also one-storey, but two or three floors are more often after all in them. Therefore the building has to be rather high. Each king respecting himself has court also servants who can live on the first floor. In the same place there will be a kitchen and a reception. On the second floor there can be, for example, a throne-room and halls for balls and feasts, and on the third — rooms of royal family. Plan floors thin lines.

3. Define where there will be a main entrance of the palace. It can be, for example, in the middle of the main facade. There has to be a magnificent door, a beautiful porch and a convenient path that ladies in the long dresses were not confused and did not stumble. The door is only a high rectangle. It can be from only two shutters, but has to be decorated with a carving, and can be — and columns. A front door — the center of all composition.

4. Plan windows. Windows of different floors have to be the friend under the friend. Between windows of one floor of distance have to be equal. When drawing buildings it is possible to use even a ruler, at least to mark straight lines. Windows are rectangles too, and windows of palaces can be decorated with a stucco molding. They can have also carved sun blind. It as you want.

5. Around the second and third floor it is possible to make beautiful galleries with columns. For this purpose draw on all width of the building straight lines slightly below than the lower line of windows and approximately through the middle of windows. Draw with pair vertical lines small columns, and parallel to the lower and top lines of a balcony draw still long horizontal lines, a handrail of a balcony and its basis quite thick.

6. Think what the palace will have a roof. It can be quite high and elegant. Draw a high triangle. In it draw straight lines parallel to all three parties. It is possible to decorate a roof with cloves, and in the middle to draw some coat of arms or a sculpture.

7. The palace stands not from scratch. Before it there can be, for example, a pond or a fountain. Around the palace, trees surely grow. It can be the most usual lindens or fir-trees, but it is possible to draw also the fantastic park. The environment of the palace needs to be outlined before you pick up a brush. Trees can be not traced, made only their contours at all.

8. Paint the park and a lawn and the park. Pick up for this purpose different shades of green color. Think what color there has to be a palace. Very much are suitable for walls gentle pastel tone — pinkish, bluish, cream.
