This phenomenon is easily explained, but mere mortals refuse to take scientifically proven facts on faith and come up with their own explanation of what is happening. It’s easier for them to believe that this is a magical ritual, God or aliens are sending rain to the sinful earth. Therefore, before drawing the rain, I will try to dot all the i's and restore the status quo. So, rain is a phenomenon noticed only on the third planet of our solar system due to the presence of Ashdvao on it. This phenomenon brings a lot of benefit and joy. Here, for example:

• It washes away the dirt and makes the world a little cleaner. Sometimes, on the contrary, it makes big puddles and a lot of dirt, but this also only brings a lot of fun, especially for kids;
• He makes people feel sad and even write poetry.
• It acts as a natural sedative. British scientists have proven that the sound of rain has a beneficial effect on the nervous system;
• He also inspired the writing of the legendary composition by Yuri Shevchuk called Rain. (In case anyone doesn’t know, this is the DDT group). Before writing this lesson, I listened to it myself several times. I recommend it to you too, it’s very inspiring and thought-provoking.

Even during such atmospheric phenomena, thunder and lightning are also observed, but this makes it even more mysterious and epic. They are more difficult to draw and in the future I am going to do such lessons. In the meantime, I hope this lesson will be useful to you:

How to draw rain with a pencil step by step

Step one. Let's mark on paper the location of the girl and the umbrella. Step two. Let's draw the details of the umbrella and the girl's body. Step three. Let's add droplets and shading. Step four. Let's add more droplets, delete auxiliary lines and correct the contours. That's it. What else can I recommend to you? We have lessons like this, try to imitate them.

Summer rain brings with it the coolness that is so lacking in the heat. Many painters like to depict various weather phenomena in their paintings, including thunderstorms, snowfall and rain. It is sometimes very difficult for novice artists to learn how to depict a variety of precipitation, for example, summer rain. But if you want, you can achieve success even in this difficult task.

Before drawing a summer landscape, you need to prepare:

A sheet of thick paper;
- watercolor paints;
- pencil;
- eraser;
- watercolor pencils;
- a container filled with clean water;
- round brush with synthetic bristles No. 3;
- black gel pen.

After this you can start drawing:

4. Draw two human figures walking along the path. In the background, draw the outline of another house and trees. Draw the outlines of a cloud in the sky. In the foreground, depict a dog and a flower bed;

8. Then paint the flowerbed and grass;

11. When the painting is dry, paint over the clothes and umbrellas of the people, the dog and the flowerbed with watercolor pencils to make the colors more vibrant and expressive;

Summer landscape with rain is completely ready. If you wish, you can draw lightning, and make the clouds a little darker, and then the picture will no longer be just summer rain, but a real thunderstorm.

Acrylic painting lessons.
You don't need to be able to draw to do this. You'll watch Donna's video tutorials and quickly realize that one half of an art brush is dipped in one color, the other half of the same brush is dipped in another color, and by moving the entire plane of the brush simultaneously across the surface of the paper, canvas, or other substrate, you get a two-color a brushstroke with very delicate, smooth shades of paint drawn on the brush.
Using this technique you can create paintings: still lifes, landscapes, bouquets of flowers, you can also paint photo frames, glass plates, boxes, vases and even furniture.

"The artist who paints the rain." How to paint a rainy day with acrylic

As professionals admit, to paint rain with watercolors you need a lot of experience in mastering this wonderful technique, while even a beginner can handle acrylic painting!

And in this example, Rain is “made” using colored acrylic heavily diluted with water

People without training and experience can master the basic artistic techniques of this technique in a short time using video materials from Donna.

WHAT MATERIALS DO YOU NEED TO START?

Start practicing on paper. To do this you need to purchase:
1. a set of brushes must be branded (from "ONE STROKE") - see below;
2. acrylic paints in plastic bottles (for painting on paper) from the same company. For starters, don't buy too many bottles.
with paints, it is enough to buy two or three colors for training (the main ones are red, yellow, blue) and, of course, white, i.e. white acrylic paint;
3. palette - carousel, i.e. a round palette (of any brand and any model), inside of which there are cells for paints, separated by partitions from each other, with a lid;
4. you need to prepare a jar for washing brushes (acrylic is washed off with plain water);
5. You will also need a cloth or paper napkin to wipe the brushes after rinsing them in water.

TIPS FOR BEGINNERS from a PRO:
Acrylic paints harden quickly, because they are based on special paints. glue. If there are dried acrylic paints on your palette, you need to pour boiling water over the palette and let it stand in this hot water for about 20 minutes, after which you can carefully remove the frozen films with a thin knife
paints. Hardened acrylic does not dissolve in water, so your drawings will last forever.

When painting with acrylic paints, do not leave used brushes without water - you must rinse them immediately, otherwise the frozen acrylic will ruin the brush, and such a brush can already be thrown away, because it will not be suitable for painting - all the hairs will be irreparably glued together!

Do not leave brushes in a jar of water for a long time - the brush will lose its original shape and the hairs will become disheveled. It is not very pleasant to use such a brush, because the quality of the drawing will suffer.

Acrylic paints are convenient because they harden (dry) quickly, and on top of the dried drawing you can paint again, applying corrections with any other color.
Good luck to everyone entering the colorful world of beauty!

Drawing water drops that look like real ones is not difficult. To do this, you need to remember a few rules that professional artists use. The image of an object formed in the human eye is formed due to different colors and amounts of light. To get a three-dimensional figure like a drop, you need to create an image on which an imitation of light and shadow will be made.

To begin, cover a sheet of paper with a plain background and draw a circle on it with a simple pencil. The circle should not be too smooth for the drop to look natural. The pictures show the drop from above, from the side and in flight.

Take a darker color than the background of the picture and draw a shadow under the crescent-shaped drop. Add some dark paint to the top of the drop on the opposite side. Add a blue tint to the drop to make it look more like water. For this, use very pale paint, thickly diluted in water. Add the same blue tint to the shadow piece that touches the drop on top. Emphasize the outline of the drop using brown paint. At the end of the work, add a highlight inside the drop using white paint.

How are droplets formed?

Clouds are made up of microparticles of water and tiny ice crystals. One cloud can contain several tons of moisture, but the water inside it does not necessarily combine. Not even a single drop may fall from such a cloud. As the cloud moves and rises, the temperature changes. Warm air cools and water vapor condenses. The droplets gather around dust grains and other particles called condensation nuclei. Microparticles of moisture interact with each other and connect. When the connection becomes heavy and gains weight, it falls to the ground. Most do not reach the ground, but dissolve directly into the air. Large drops reach 6 millimeters in diameter and fall at a speed of about 7 meters per second. Small drops are called drizzle. They fall to the ground very slowly and in winter they can turn into snow as they move. This process was observed by modern scientists using cameras raised in the air on aircraft and taking macro photographs.
