How to draw mushrooms step by step with a pencil. In this lesson we will try to draw mushrooms easily. There are many types of edible mushrooms and non-edible ones, but they are all drawn in almost the same way. How exactly they are drawn, we look further in the lesson.
How to draw mushrooms step by step
So, how to draw mushrooms step by step and easy. Basically, all types of mushrooms begin to draw from the stem. So we will start that way - we draw the leg of a large mushroom. Pay attention to its thickness. Of course, mushrooms are different, but still, in order for the picture to be beautiful, you need to determine the normal thickness of the mushroom stem.
Next, draw the leg of a smaller mushroom - it will be smaller and thinner, about half of its older brother.
Well, with the next line we will finish the hat for a small mushroom - we will draw the top of the hat.
In exactly the same way, and in the same sequence, draw a hat for a large mushroom.
Well, the main part of the lesson is done - the mushrooms are drawn. Next, you need to draw lines.
If you plan to decorate the mushrooms with colored pencils, then you can draw lines with a black pencil. Well, if you draw like me, with simple pencils, then take a darker (softer) pencil. Do not forget to "close" the legs under the hat.
Start painting the mushrooms from the caps. If you start with the legs, then you will be uncomfortable and you can smear the drawing with your hand.
Speech therapy classes with children are much more productive if you use special visual material. This is especially necessary to do when the baby's personal experience (on the topic under discussion) is not too great. For example, preschoolers rarely see mushrooms, they have vague ideas about their different types, therefore, high-quality images of these “forest gifts” can not only develop children's speech, but also significantly enrich knowledge about the world around them, nature.
If you want to use pictures of mushrooms for activities with children, then you should consider a few rules for their use:
- Give the child the opportunity to take a good look, study new images in each drawing, and only then use them for developmental exercises or games.
- Pay attention to the quality of the pictures. It is best to use special speech therapy illustration sets produced for kindergarten, but you can also take realistic images from the Internet or use photographs.
- Be sure to select a variety of handouts - both subject pictures and plot pictures. The first ones are small cards with single images of mushrooms, and the second ones are illustrations of a real (hedgehog with mushrooms) or fabulous (a series of pictures Under the mushroom) situation on the topic. For the development of the speech of preschoolers, both types of visual material are necessary.
- Any illustration for classes should be made in a realistic manner, exactly repeating all the elements of the external structure of an object.
- It is most convenient to use cards with names that older preschoolers can read for themselves.
- Images of mushrooms on a transparent background greatly expand the possibilities of using them when compiling stories.

Tasks
There are so many representatives of this natural kingdom that each species allows you to offer the child special tasks. To do this, of course, you need to choose suitable pictures with mushrooms for children, as close as possible to natural ones.
Russula
- What color are the caps of these mushrooms?
- Explain what their name says?
- Count: one honey agaric - two honey agarics - three ...
- Think and tell why honey mushrooms are often called "friendly"?
- Compare fox and fox. How does a chanterelle mushroom look like a red beast?
- What fox can be seen in the kitchen? (fried, boiled, pickled, dried, salted, fresh)
- Where does the boletus like to grow the most? What tree "gave" him his name?
- How can you call a grove in which only aspen mushrooms grow? (aspen, aspen)
boletus
- What happens if you uproot the mushrooms, and not cut them with a knife? Why can't this be done?
- In what forest can you most often find a boletus (in a birch grove, in a birch forest).
Borovik (white mushroom)
- Describe the appearance of a boletus.
- Explain why it is also called "white"?
- Can someone hide under a mushroom if it has grown very large?
- Why can't you pick fly agarics?
- What other inedible mushrooms do you know?
Death cap
- Tell us about what poisonous mushrooms are and why pale grebes are considered so dangerous to people?
- Why is no one picking up harmful mushrooms?
Games
Different pictures of mushrooms for children allow you to conduct many kinds of speech therapy games. Here are some examples:
- We collect mushrooms
Each player chooses one picture with a mushroom and tries to describe its external features. If the other player guessed correctly, then the card goes to him. The one with the most pictures wins.
- How are we similar?
An adult chooses two cards (boletus-boletus, white-butter, russula-fly agaric) and invites children to see as many differences between them as possible. The one who gives the answer last wins.
- Cheerful chefs
Invite the children to “cook” a meal of various edible mushrooms they know. Everyone must choose one picture and name a dish that can be cooked with certain mushrooms (for example: porcini mushroom soup, pickled butter, boletus in sour cream, salted milk mushrooms, etc.
- Oh, what a honey agaric we have!
The image of any mushroom is transferred from one player to another. Everyone names one of its signs, distinctive features of the external structure. The winner is the participant who can see and name some detail last.
- Tales from storytellers
Ask each player to choose one specially selected mushroom picture for children. Then everyone has to come up with a short story about their character. Tell about his character, habits, occupations. For example, Borovik is the king of all mushrooms in the forest, he is strict and important, busy with state affairs from morning to evening, loves to play football and play the balalaika. Older preschoolers can be invited to come up with (in a circle) a whole story about the mushroom kingdom, you can also draw illustrations for the fairy tale together.
- Mosaic: find a piece
Make cut-out pictures from the cards and invite the child to collect them. You can use drawings of poisonous and edible mushrooms for this game.
- full basket
Invite the child to select a few cards (he will need a small basket for this), memorize them well and repeat all the names by heart without looking into the basket again. Each player can try to become a mushroom picker by collecting their own set of cards.
Puzzles
With children it is very useful to learn riddles on a chosen topic. This helps not only to train the memory and attention of a preschooler, but also significantly increases his vocabulary, and also allows you to automate difficult sounds. Here is a selection of suitable riddles called Basket of Mushrooms for Toddlers:
coloring pages
Coloring drawings is very important for the development of fine motor skills of the baby, for his speech development. Younger preschoolers need to be offered larger, simple contour images of the most famous mushrooms (white, fly agaric), and for older children it would be more correct to select drawings with miniature mushrooms, chanterelles, and russula. Make sure that children do the work only with pencils, it is this condition that provides the value of coloring.
Ceps ... This is only a small part of their variety. If you decide to tell children about mushrooms, we recommend depicting a mushroom with them, telling in the process everything you know about this natural creation. Believe me, this type of presentation of information is much more effective and interesting than a regular story. If you follow our updates, then we have already drawn some types of mushrooms. Today we present step-by-step instructions on how to draw an edible porcini mushroom. This is one of the most delicious (if cooked correctly) and beautiful mushrooms. Therefore, prepare all the necessary tools, and start drawing.
You will need:
As usual, in order to simplify the drawing process as much as possible, we draw two cross lines in the center of the sheet. Draw straight lines with a ruler long and straight. They will help to evenly draw the details of the mushroom, and indicate its location on the sheet.
The leg of the mushroom is large and voluminous in size. Rounded below, gradually tapering towards the top. Let's draw it in two parts.
Stepping back about 2 cm from the edge of the bottom line, draw an arc that should intersect the left side of the horizontal auxiliary line, but do not attach it to the vertical one. Follow as shown in the picture. 
Repeat the same manipulations with a pencil on the right side. The other part of the stem of the mushroom should be a mirror image. 
The cap of the white fungus has an oval, slightly rounded shape. To make it easier to depict it, draw a curved line, indicating the bottom of the hat. 
Starting from the edge of the line, draw an arc, attaching it to the top of the vertical auxiliary line. 
Repeat the same action in mirror image. Two arcs should join at one point, and together form a round white mushroom cap. 
Auxiliary lines fulfilled their purpose. All the details of the mushroom are in the picture. It's time to remove the straight lines. Do this carefully with an eraser. 
To make the drawing look complete, it needs to be colored. But, since the stem and hat are round, it is necessary to draw shadows. Only in this way we will visually convey the form. Following the instructions, mark the places in the picture where the colors will change. 
To paint, you only need a few shades, ranging from light beige to dark brown. 
If a person does not know what to do, often involuntarily he begins to draw. Knowing this fact, you can use it to your advantage. After all, drawing classes not only develop the skill of owning a pencil, but also allow you to develop your imagination. True, it is worth paying attention to what exactly you portray. You should draw non-trivial things, they will help a person go beyond the standard framework of thinking. And what to portray? For example, you can make a sketch of mushrooms, read below.
We study mushrooms
Before wondering how to draw mushrooms, you should carefully study the mushrooms. This knowledge can be useful to a person if he wants to go into the forest and replenish his food supplies there. It is advisable to study mushrooms not from pictures, but from real mushrooms. If this is not possible, then, of course, images are also quite suitable. Take the time to study where mushrooms grow, what groups they "settle", and what shape their hats have. This will help to avoid many errors in the image in the future. You should study the shape of all parts of honey mushrooms well, and also pay attention to their colors. This data collection may not be limited. Do not be too lazy to spend half an hour of your time studying the root system. This will help to understand why and in what direction mushrooms grow.
Pencil drawing
The first experience in drawing any object should be a sketch. How to draw mushrooms in stages? First you should depict a stump. Let's start drawing it with a simple geometric shape. Draw a square and then round off its top corners. Now you need to make roots from the bottom side of the geometric figure. With wavy lines of various lengths, we outline elongated curved ovals. Somewhere they should be thicker, somewhere thinner. And how to draw mushrooms? After the pedestal for mushrooms is ready, you can proceed to their image. The first step is to draw the legs. They have the shape of rounded thick rectangles. Now you should draw hats. We represent them with ovals.
After the large mushrooms are ready, you can move on to the small ones. These should be hats without legs that are stuck to the stump. When the composition is built, you can proceed to its detailing. First, we outline the pattern on the hat with lines, and then we work out the pattern of the bark with wavy strokes. At this stage, the sketch should be considered complete. Optionally, you can add light and shadow, and then you will get not a sketch, but a work of art.
Stylized drawing
The easiest way to depict something is to make the image unrealistic. How to draw mushrooms with a pencil? The shape of the mushrooms should be given quite real, but the insides can be filled not with volume, but with a pattern. You will get a flat stylized image. How to draw mushrooms in this style? First you need to depict the mushrooms. We will draw them in the amount of four pieces. Draw a leg with curved wavy lines, and draw a hat with an oval. Now you should supplement the image with membranes on the leg and roots. Then you need to divide each mushroom into parts so that it is more convenient to fill them with an ornament or pattern. On the legs, you can apply the usual touches, and give a flight of fancy to the hats. They should be divided into 3-4 parts and draw a different pattern in each of them. It can be waves, triangles or circles. Now you should shade these drawings. To make the work look more interesting, you can revive it by planting a snail on one of the mushrooms. She, by the way, is also worth styling.
mushroom people
If you like to fantasize, and the image of ordinary mushrooms seems boring to you, then you should revive the plants. mushrooms in the form of people? The first step, however, should be to depict the outline of an ordinary honey agaric, and only then give it a human appearance. This is necessary so that the artist in the process does not go beyond the framework limited by the contour of the mushroom. Figures can be anything. For example, you can depict a girl trying on a big hat, and next to her a friend who does the same. You can draw a mushroom in profile, and supplement such a sketch with a cigarette or pipe. Do not be afraid of non-trivial combinations. The drawing will not lose from this, but will only be enriched. To make people resemble mushrooms, their silhouettes should be made smooth and wavy, and their hats should be large and round.
Drawing with colored pencils
A colorful sketch always attracts more attention than a graphic image. And drawing in color is always more interesting. How to depict honey mushrooms? You should start with a pencil sketch. First you need to draw the general shape of the entire group of mushrooms, and then each mushroom separately. Do not dig into the details, you should correctly depict the form. Then, you can immediately come to the image of the volume with colored pencils. The whole mushroom, except for the lower part of the cap, should be given a yellowish color. Then shade the leg and shadow on the hat with a brown pencil. Now you need to enter several shades of yellow and orange. The final stage is to draw the back of the hat in dark color.
Hi all! Today we have prepared for you a step-by-step mushroom drawing lesson. In general, these are one of the most mysterious living creatures that inhabit our globe with you, and at the same time, one of the most ancient.
If you think that mushrooms appear in a person's life only when he feasts on mushroom soup or julienne, you are slightly underestimating the role of mushrooms. No, not "a little" at all. First, the first antibiotic produced by mankind, penicillin, was isolated from penicillum, a fungus.
Antibiotics became the salvation of people and a revolution, a real breakthrough, after which many infectious diseases ceased to be a death sentence, and a sick person received real hope for healing. Well, today we will not draw a microfungus, but real large forest mushrooms. So let's get started!
Step 1
First, let's draw three flattened ovals, which will later become the caps of our mushrooms. Arrange them in the same way as in our sample, try to convey the size and shape. If everything worked out, go to the next step.
Step 2
Now let's draw elongated cylindrical shapes - hats.
Step 3
Let's add the upper part to the hats so that they acquire such a recognizable mushroom shape. Let's draw the legs a little - add curls on the one that is closest to us and outline the lower part of our drawing. As you can see, there are a lot of smooth lines in this tutorial. If you want to practice drawing straight lines, take a look at our lesson on.
Step 4
The author of this text is not familiar with scientific journals devoted to research in the field of mycology, so the following information will simply be called "information". So, in glossy magazines and on the Internet, the following (rumors? scientific facts? fictions?) information is often found: in one of the universities in Japan, an experiment was conducted with one of the types of mold and a maze that was designed to determine the level of intelligence of mice. Professor Toshiyuki Nakagaki placed a piece of sugar at the exit of the maze, and a piece of fungus that looked like a web at the entrance.
The results of the experiment are quite surprising - the fungus, which usually grows in the form of a wicker circle, directed its shoots towards the sugar cube. Most of the sprouts hit dead ends, but one of them managed to grow in the right direction and reach the finish line. The next fact looks quite incredible - when the scientist separated a particle of the first mycelium that entangled the labyrinth and put it in a new labyrinth, which was an exact copy of the first one, the fungus sprouts moved along the right path, bypassing all dead ends and obstacles. What was it - a phenomenon of memory, a kind of intellect?
Well, we will return to the drawing and outline the points on the hats, as well as the horizontal lines passing through the center of the conditional circles of the hats of our mushrooms.
Step 5
Now let's increase the number of lines outlined in the previous step, make them more frequent and densely spaced. This applies to the first two mushrooms, in the last one we paint over the inside of the cap a little. Let's also increase the number of dots on the hats. We draw the lower parts of the legs and the grass, we complete the stage by drawing the grass next to the mushrooms.
Step 6
Let's slightly shade the area inside the caps, and also put a thick shadow on the caps of the small and medium mushrooms themselves. Follow the rules for applying shadows, designate areas of light, penumbra and the shadow itself, and the latter should be the thickest.
To achieve rich shading, you can use hatching crosswise, painting over the required number of layers. By the way, we almost forgot about the reflex (the light cast not by the source, but reflected from the surface, usually looks like a bright border on the edge of the illuminated object) - pay attention to how well it is visible on the smallest fungus.
Step 7
Now let's make the shadow even thicker. We will also apply a rich shadow to the cap of the largest mushroom. By the way, we conduct a more detailed analysis of shadows in the lesson, which is dedicated to.
Step 8
Let's shade the hat of the largest mushroom by analogy with the small and medium ones. Let's make the grass surrounding the mushrooms thicker and draw some more blades of grass. Note that the main parts of the shadow are also visible on the cap of a large mushroom, try to convey them.
If you want to practice more in simple lessons, we recommend you an article about that, from the cartoon "Pony friendship is a miracle."
Well, it was a lesson dedicated to that. They turned out to be very nice with us, only our editors would like to warn all readers: DO NOT EAT such mushrooms for food, it is best not to touch them at all. But you can easily draw from them. Send us your work and write in the comments your wishes for new step-by-step drawing lessons. Be healthy!
