If you paint space with watercolors, then an alluring and mysterious world of heavenly heights will appear on a sheet of paper. You can give free rein to fantasy by depicting a comet, asteroid and other cosmic bodies.
Background
First you need to make the background - this is where the drawing of the cosmos begins. Take blue or lilac watercolor. Do not use black, otherwise the picture will turn out to be twilight. If this is not scary, then this color can be used.
To create the background, you will need a wide brush, water and your chosen paint. Dip the brush in water, lightly shake off excess liquid and brush over the watercolor. Now cover the entire sheet with broad strokes.
The background should dry well. After that, you can start creating objects large and small. Take white paints and paint some distant stars. They can have the correct 4-6-angle outlines or be depicted as blurry highlights.
The comet is in the foreground
Let the comet be the main object of the drawing. This shooting star consists of a head and a tail. The first can be either round or 4-6-angle.
Several rays radiate from her head in one direction. This is the "tail" of the heavenly beauty. It can consist of zigzag lines. Take orange, yellow paints for them. Then a flaming celestial body will appear in the picture.
If you want to paint a comet less aggressive, then use white and silver watercolors. You can add several strokes with a thin brush using blue paint. The comet will turn out to be sparkling and mysterious.
To make the heavenly bodies in the picture shine, you can use a wax candle. First, rub the selected area of the canvas with it, and then depict a celestial object on it using dark watercolors, to which a few drops of liquid soap have been added. After the paints are dry, take a toothpick and scratch out the drawing. Shiny streaks form in place of these marks.
Rocket or UFO?
If you want to make a rocket the main object of the drawing, then this is not difficult. Let it roam the vastness of space. Take a simple pencil and draw its outlines first. Think in which direction it will fly. Her body should be tilted there.
It is not difficult to portray him. Draw an oval with a rounded or pointed top and a straight bottom. Draw semicircular lines at the bottom of the object 2-4 - this will be the "tail" of the spaceship. Fire comes out of it, which will help create red and orange watercolors. Cover the rocket body with light colors.
By painting space with watercolors, you can depict a UFO. Here the scope of imagination is endless. They can be of any shape and color. The main thing is that the objects are lighter than the background. Then they will look expressive and beautiful.
