Children. Giraffe.

Educator: Well done, you guessed right. Today we will study draw a giraffe.

Of course you know that giraffe the tallest animal on Earth. He has a very long neck and high legs. Why do you think nature awarded such a giraffe long neck ?

Children: Reach the tallest plants.

Educator: Long neck helps giraffe reach tall plants (slide16)- acacias, from which he picks branches with his long tongue (slide 17). His height and good eyesight also help him spot a predator in time - from such a height he can see everything perfectly!

Spotted (slide 18) coloring helps it camouflage in the shade of trees. And on their own long legs giraffe easily escapes from predators (slide 19)

Educator: A long neck crowned by a small head (slide 20) which has horns covered with leather, as well as big ears. Strong legs with (slide 21) hooves at the ends help giraffe protect yourself from predators and run fast. The front legs are longer and thinner, while the hind legs are shorter than the front legs. Skin giraffe sandy orange color with brown spots all over the body.

Riddles
He is a spotted giant -
The neck is long, like a faucet:
There's a "count" walking around the safari
And his name is ( giraffe)

Walking in hot Africa,
The long neck surprises
It's tall, like a closet,
Yellow, with spots... (giraffe)
.
The longest necks in the world...
The giraffe is the tallest animal on earth, its height reaches 4.5-5 meters and its weight is about half a ton. This is a very elegant and beautiful animal with graceful movements and, by the way, is a good runner (it reaches a speed of 50 km/h). Giraffes live in African savannas and feed on leaves and young branches; the animal's daily diet is about 100 kg of greenery.
Dark and light spots scattered on the giraffe’s body make it difficult to catch the characteristic outlines of the animal against the background of foliage; thanks to this coloration feature, giraffes have a remarkable ability to suddenly appear and disappear.
The long neck, so convenient for obtaining food, causes the animals a lot of trouble at the watering place: they have to spread their legs wide and reach for the water. This position makes them vulnerable, and it is no coincidence that predators lie in wait for giraffes at the watering hole. Giraffes often come to water in pairs, and they take turns keeping watch: one looks around while the other drinks.


Giraffes defend themselves from lions and leopards with kicks, the strength of which allows them to pierce the animal’s skull. That's why the giraffe never kicks the giraffe. In general, these animals have a peaceful character; quarrels and conflicts in the herd are rare. The female's pregnancy lasts more than 14 months, the cub is born almost two meters tall and after a few days is ready to follow the mother. The first weeks of life are dangerous for young animals, of which approximately one in three dies from the teeth of predators. Adult giraffes usually live to be 20-30 years old.

Let's get to work. For the drawing we will need: orange cardboard; gouache, two brushes: pony or squirrel No. 1 and No. 2; double sippy cup for water, a simple pencil, a palette.


Using a simple pencil, draw a horizon line in the middle of the sheet


Use pink and white gouache to shade the sky near the horizon (mix the colors on the palette)


Drawing the sultry sun of the savannah: white circle, around it there are white semi-arcs


Use brown and white gouache to draw irregularities on the soil surface (dilute the gouache with water on the palette so that it is not thick)


Along the horizon line we draw the mountains in blue, purple


Drawing a giraffe
We draw with a simple pencil a diagram of the torso, neck, head (large oval, small oval, line connecting these ovals)


Using the diagram we draw the giraffe’s neck


We denote large joints in circles and draw lines from them to the legs.


According to the diagram, we draw the legs of the animal, partially outlining the auxiliary circles


Using an eraser to remove auxiliary lines


Draw the head. Make the muzzle sharper, draw horns and ears


Draw the mane along the neck, long tail with tassel


Paint the silhouette of a giraffe with yellow gouache


Let's liven up the sun a little yellow


Based on the yellow background of the giraffe’s silhouette, we begin to draw the spotted color of the animal, which resembles quadrangles. We leave a yellow gap between them.


Towards the stomach, the spots become smaller and disappear completely (there are no spots on the stomach and legs from the knee)


We paint the mane, hooves, tip of the tail, eye with black, and draw some other things. thin lines, brush tip


Drawing trees
We need to explain to children that in Africa the trees are different, the branches grow more to the sides. The crown is not dense, almost transparent.
Using black gouache we draw a small tree almost on the horizon. It is small because it is located far away.


Using the same black gouache we draw the trunk of the second tree. It is larger because it is closer to us


Draw small branches with the tip of the brush


Drawing grass and leaves
To draw grass using the printing technique, we will use a small piece of cardboard (2 cm wide) and brown gouache poured into a gouache lid (can be spread on a palette)


To draw grass, dip the end of a cardboard rectangle in gouache and apply it to the sheet



Add green paint


Using the same piece of cardboard and green gouache, we draw leaves in the tree crowns, placing the cardboard parallel to the bottom edge of the sheet


The drawing is ready


Can be framed

Good afternoon, in today's lesson we will learn how to draw a giraffe. The giraffe is the tallest animal on our earth; male giraffes reach a height of up to 6 meters. Giraffes have a very long neck, which helps them survive in the savannah with its sparse grass cover, therefore, thanks to such a neck, giraffes can easily reach foliage from tall trees.

Our giraffe has already eaten and is lying resting in tall grass. Only his long neck is visible from the grass. In our today's lesson, we will talk not only about the stages of drawing this beautiful animal, but also dwell in detail on the structure individual parts muzzle, eyes, mouth, ears. We'll tell you how to draw hooves. Let's get started.

Step 1
Giraffes are similar to camels and cows. They have similar foreheads, eyes and ears. The giraffe's head is square in front view and triangular in profile.

Step 2
The giraffe's tongue is long and dark in color, and the lips are folded into the mouth and partially cover the teeth.

Step 3
Large and dark eyes and long eyelashes.

Step 4
The giraffe's ears stick out, pointed at the ends, and look a bit like the shape of a spoon.

Step 5
From above, a giraffe's hooves look like a cow's, but if we look from the underside, we see that they are flattened.

Step 6
Let's start drawing our giraffe. Let's draw an oblong shape for the body, and for the head let's draw a shape similar to the head of a bird. Let's draw guide lines for the nose and eyes, as well as a neck line.

Step 7
Let's move on to the details. Let's start with the head. Let's draw the contours of the muzzle, eyebrows and horns.

Article from the series "Drawing animals of Africa."

Recently we drew a brachiosaurus, and today we’ll draw a giraffe. We mentioned the Brachiosaurus only by external analogy: both of these creatures have much in common in appearance and (possibly) in their way of life. Both Brachiosaurus and Giraffe are famous ( okay, brachiosaurus was famous while it lived) herbivorous diet and a long neck with which you can reach and pluck leaves from the tops of trees. Let's remember what a giraffe looks like: we know its appearance from photographs, drawings; someone may have been to the zoo.

The main features: a very long, powerful neck, a short powerful body with a clear predominance of the front part, shoulders pushed FORWARD (this is very important), long slightly X-shaped legs, and the front legs are noticeably longer than the back ones. The spotted coloring and characteristic horns of a giraffe are far from the most important thing; don’t delude yourself on this score. We’ve talked about appearance, let’s move on to the first lesson - how to draw a giraffe.

Of course, we will place the sheet of paper vertically.

The giraffe stands straight and looks into the distance, legs slightly apart for balance. By the way, they say that giraffes amble - this is rare in nature.

Let's outline the short body, powerful neck and position of the legs. By the way, the animal’s head is quite large and elongated. The legs end in paired hooves.

Now we begin to “design” the beast: let’s clarify the contours of the body and legs. Please note that the back pair of legs in no way grows from the stomach, on the contrary, they are significantly removed from the body, in some ways it even looks ridiculous, but such is nature! Therefore, portray it as it is. The animal’s back also doesn’t look like a straight line, but it doesn’t flow smoothly into the neck either: in living nature there are generally few strictly geometric shapes. The joints on the legs are clearly visible. The hooves are large, and DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THEM, the legs again widen (as a person's wrist is slightly wider than the part of the forearm that precedes it). The neck is slightly arched, which, to a certain extent, gives this herbivore a rather proud appearance. Let us repeat once again, the head is long, and especially due to the extended forward big lips. The nostrils are located almost in the middle of the muzzle, the eyes are large and beautiful. The ears are funnel-shaped and are located on the sides of the head; Characteristic “horns” are located almost on the top of the head.

Now let's give our beast a characteristic color, note that internal sides legs have no spots.

The giraffe is ready, but remember that our giraffe is still an adaptation, albeit a naturalistic one. To be able to draw a giraffe “as in life”, you need to constantly observe giraffes and draw them from life. Our article is more of an informational nature.

I still don’t want to stop at simply copying a photo from the Internet. In the second lesson “how to draw a giraffe” we will learn, for example, how to turn a drawing in a mirror.

First I'll make a pencil sketch:

This giraffe does not stand still, but walks, and, in addition to the features of the figure, we need to be able to convey movement.

And this is how the drawing turned out - a walking giraffe:

Well, what can we say - this picture is better. I didn’t try to copy one for one and had the opportunity to somehow add a little touch to my idea - the giraffe turned out to be clearly livelier and more convincing. Now we’ll decorate it with some more beautiful spots.

Difficulty - Lighter than average


He's a giraffe - he knows better. Do you agree with V. Vysotsky? By at least The giraffe we ​​will learn to draw today will see you in a creative rush!

We continue to expand the collection of sequential instructions for drawing animals. And today we have one of the most unusual, but familiar to everyone from zoos, safaris, and Soviet cartoons animal - giraffe. Such a clumsy, such non-standard, but still very native (especially for artists from the African continent) animal!

I already have a sheet of paper on my desk, a hard pencil and a black pen. You can repeat after me if you want to get a giraffe like this:

(It is not necessary to use exactly this set of tools. You can draw a giraffe only with pencils, or, if you have the appropriate skills, with paints, using the instructions provided as the basis for the future drawing)

Are you ready? Me too! Let's get started!

Let's start drawing a giraffe

1 – Initially, take a pencil with your talented brush and make a sketch as in the picture. There's already a giraffe, isn't there? :) But we won't stop there!

2 – Draw the head, only with a black pen. Don’t forget about the characteristic “horns”, ears, nostrils.

3 – Use a solid line to highlight the “back of the head”, the back of the neck and the back to the tail.

4 – Now it’s time for the front part – using one line, add the giraffe’s neck, part of the torso and half of the left front leg.

5 – Complete the left leg and highlight the lower torso to where the back left leg will grow.

6 – Draw the back left leg entirely and “close the circle” of the torso. Now you know how to draw half a giraffe!

7 – Add the right legs and finally give him the ability to stand firmly!

8 – Draw the giraffe’s tail where it is supposed to grow from and our exotic animal is almost ready.

9 – Erase the sketch we made in the first step and have some colored pencils or paints ready to bring your drawing to life.

10 – Last stage. Color your creation and make some shading in the places where the giraffe's eyes should be. According to the idea, he looks in your direction and his eyes are not noticeable, so by darkening you will make “dimples” and give your animal the “effect of reality”.
