Lydia Genyush

Master- the class is designed for parents and educators, as well as preschool children - from 3 to 6 years.

Purpose master class:

In our time, a fairly non-standard type of visual activity has become widespread - blotography. Blotography is drawing applied to paper randomly blots to a recognizable artistic image.

Non-traditional forms of drawing are of great interest to children. Especially clackography t. to. usually for blots we make a remark, and when using this method, on the contrary, we praise.

Doing blots(black and multi-colored) and looking at them, already a 3-year-old child can see images, objects or individual details. "What does it look like?", "Who does she remind you of?"- such questions develop thinking and imagination.

Blotography- this is a great way to have fun and usefully spend time, experiment with colors, create unusual images. Inflating blots it is impossible to predict exactly how they will disperse, overflow into each other, and what the final result will be. This activity will be interesting for both adults and children. And not only interesting, but also healthy: for example, as an articulatory gymnastics. Also drawing blowing through a straw improves the health and strength of the lungs and respiratory system (which is especially useful for coughing).

It should be noted that with this type drawing well, it turns out, depict various trees (intricate trunks, branches, etc. are obtained). Try it, you will like the result!

Target: Getting to know the display method such as blotography to show its expressive possibilities.

Tasks:

Generate interest in "revitalization" unusual shapes ( blot, learn draw the details of objects(blot, to give them completeness and similarity with real images; to learn to see the unusual in the ordinary;

Develop imaginative thinking, flexibility of thinking, perception, imagination, fantasy, interest in creative activity; cultivate care in painting with paints.

Work materials:

Album sheets;

Gouache or watercolor;

Large brush or you can use a pipette;

Straw for drinks;

Water in a jar;

Wet cloth - wipe your hands if they get dirty;

Cotton buds;

Plasticine;

- markers.

GCD progress:

organizational part.

caregiver: Guys, do you know what blot?

Children's answers.

caregiver: A blot is a trace, spot left by paint. Blot may be the way drawing.

The teacher offers the attention of the children several ready-made drawings made by the technique blotography.

Children practice on an additional sheet of paper with one color.

Physical education minute "Children like paint»

Here we took the paints in our hands, (Close the hands in "lock", rotary movements round)

And there was no boredom in the house.

To make it more fun (clapping hands)

Don't skimp on bright colors!

This is true! (Stand up, jerking hands in front of chest)

Well, what is there to hide?

Children love, love very much paint! (Turns of the body to the left and right of the hand on the belt)

And in the tram on the window!

What kind of animal is this (Hands on the belt, torso tilt forward)

Many legs, one head?

Whether the animal is a shrimp, (Jumping in place)

Is it the queue at the stall?

This is true! (clap you hands)

Well, what is there to hide?

Children love, love very much paint! (Jumping in place)

On paper, on asphalt, on the wall

And in the tram on the window! (clapping hands) (E. Uspensky)

Blotography can be combined with different technicians fine arts, such as monotype, appliqué and others. Some of them are presented in this master class.

This way drawing« blots» can be used with children 3-4 years and older.

We dip the brush into the diluted paint and splatter on a sheet of paper. The thicker the paint, the richer the color, but the more difficult it is to blow out.

We take a tube and blow through it on multi-colored drops of paint, they turn into blots. In this case, a sheet of paper can be rotated - blots become even more interesting!


Blotography using cotton swabs

Using a large brush, set blot in the corner of the sheet.


With the help of a tube, we inflate the paint in different directions. It turned out such a tree!

After a little thought, this tree reminded me of a mountain ash growing alone on a slope. With cotton swabs paint on the berries.


It was about such a mountain ash, perhaps, that she wrote a poem "Rowan" Irina Tokmakova.

red berry

The rowan gave me.

I thought it was sweet

And she is like a hen.

Is this berry

Just not mature

Is it a sly mountain ash

Want to play a joke?

Blotography using a felt-tip pen

As in previous works, we set blot and blow out the trunk and branches with a tube. And what kind of tree is this? Of course, pine!

With the help of green felt-tip pens draw needles.

Over the yellow scree of the cliff

The old pine bent

Bare roots fearfully

She leads the wind. (Timofey Belozerov)

Having decorated all the branches with lush needles, we proceed to the design of the clearing around the pine. Apply blots green and inflate with a straw. We got flower stalks!

Finishing leaves and flowers on stalks - dandelions. Now a lonely pine tree is not at all bored!

Blotography + plasticineography

With the help of plasticine we create a marine bottom: we sculpt bright fish and pebbles.


But what is missing in this picture? Of course, seaweed! By using magic blots and tubules appear and sea grass! blots are located between the pebbles, and if the paint slightly goes on the plasticine, it's okay, you can easily wipe it with a cloth and the work will not be spoiled.


Why not the seabed! Finishing bubbles and drawing is ready!

The fish was chasing the fish

The fish wagged its tail

Poked in the abdomen - Caught up!

Hey girlfriend! How are you? (T. Vtorova)

And this way drawing suitable for older children (5 – 7 years old). We collect the paint on the brush and sprinkle it on a sheet of paper. Blow out with a tube magic blots. And now the most crucial moment - you need to turn on your imagination!


In each blot

Someone is there

If in blot

Get in with a brush.

In this blot -

cat with a tail,

Under the tail

River with a bridge

On Bridge -

A weirdo with a weirdo.

Under the bridge -

Pike perch with perch.

The drawing needs to be considered from different angles, and only then draw individual details to make the image more recognizable.


Blotography + monotopy

The background is prepared in advance with techniques - monotopy.


Apply to the dried layer blots different colors and blown with a straw.


Here is just a small part of what can be done with « magic blots» - blotography. And with what else technicians fine arts can be combined blotting- it will tell your imagination!

Summary of NOD.

The teacher, together with the children, examine the work, draw up an exhibition.

About the benefits of Pencil and Brush

(excerpt)

…. Inkblot brush for laughter

We put - that's a hindrance!

This blot is very angry:

- I'm not good enough to be a blob,

I won't blot is prose,

I will be a chamomile or a rose.

N. Alekseevskaya.

Blob drawings are a great idea that can diversify your creativity with your child. It was suggested to us by a talented St. Petersburg artist Sergei Rublev. Sergey has prepared a small master class for Jackdaw-Player, which will allow you and your child to create your own unusual (and for sure, more than one) painting from a blot. Try it, it's not difficult at all, and the result can be very spectacular.

First, a little background. Last summer I spent a lot of time in the company of my nephew Mark, who at that time was 4 years old. When we were once again looking for something to do, I remembered the watercolor blots, and we got down to business. And we got so carried away that in a couple of hours we got about 50 blots. And Mark is not so easy to interest in something, especially for a long time!

Later, while cleaning out my closet, I came across some of our art and decided to finish it off with ink. So from the blots a series of city and sea landscapes turned out, and after several years of work and drawing on a computer, I fell in love with watercolor again.

Do you also want to try to create your own little blot masterpiece? It will be interesting for children (and adults) of all ages ( Note ed .: with kids we use the hand-to-hand technique; also it can be a great idea for mom's creativity). The technology is quite simple, and you will probably find materials for creativity at home.

1. We need watercolor paints, 6-12 colors are enough. Paper can be any, for example, my nephew and I drew on a regular office paper. It is best to take large brushes, it is easier and faster to paint over the sheet with them. A jar of water and a rag or paper towels will also come in handy.

2. Before drawing, we fold the sheets of paper in half: on one side we will draw, on the other we will get an imprint.

3. Wet the brush with water and take the paint. There should be enough water so that the color spots can blend on the paper, then you get a beautiful transition between colors. I recommend using no more than 3-4 colors, then the spots will turn out bright and saturated and do not risk turning into dirty gray.

4. When one side of the sheet is colored, you can fold it in half.

5. Smooth out the folded sheet to make the print clearer and brighter.

6. The blot is ready. Let's put it aside for now so that it dries up, but for now you can do the next one.

7. When the blot is dry, we can finish it with felt-tip pens, pencils and a gel pen.

How to "revive" our blot? The plot can be thought out in advance or fantasized when the blot is ready. In the first case, it can be a flower, a butterfly, a sun or a heart (by the way, an interesting idea for a valentine) - something symmetrical. Then you simply apply half of the desired design on half of the sheet.


Recently, we analyzed seven simple watercolor painting techniques, and if you have mastered them, then it's time to move on to something more complex and interesting. Today we're going to look at six more interesting techniques that will help you create your own masterpiece.

Spray

We wetted the bottom of the paper to see what happens.

This technique is quite simple. Just fill the brush with paint and start tapping the bristles of the brush on your finger so that the splashes scatter randomly

If your brush is too wet, it will be difficult for you to control the spray. Therefore, shake off a few drops from it, and only then get to work.

If you don't like to hit your fingers with a brush, then you can use any tool at hand, a pen, for example.

Before we start splattering our paint, let's place the pieces of paper in the top corner of our canvas.

We also wet the bottom edge of the sheet with clean water and tinted it with a light purple color.

Look for an old toothbrush, rinse it, and remove any remaining toothpaste. And get ready for the mess.

There are several ways to get paint on your toothbrush. You can dip it in paint, it's very difficult to fill the bristles with paint that way. You can try filling your toothbrush with a brush. This way you can control the amount of paint.

Take your toothbrush and run your thumb over the bristles. You can also use improvised means. Choose a tool with which you will be comfortable spraying paint from the bristles. Notice how the speed of the movements and the distance of the brush from the paper affect the atomization of the paint.

When you want to spray a different color paint, give your toothbrush a good rinse and dry it with a towel.

Don't worry if you don't do this technique as well as you would like. Practice and you will succeed.

As you can see, it turns out quite an interesting effect. Use the tools at hand that you have, use your imagination and get creative with drawing.

Sgraffito and stamps

Sgraffito is an Italian term that refers to the scraping technique associated with abrading the top coat of a pottery to expose the underlying layers.

In the example, we scraped off the paint with a penknife. If you scrape off the paint that has not yet dried, which has soaked deep into the paper, you will get dark lines.

If used wisely, this technique can create interesting landscapes by scraping out the shapes of trees and other flora.

You can use old credit cards to scrape off the paint. With a smooth side card, you can sweep away paint residue.

Many brushes have a pointed edge. You can use these brushes to create thin lines.

It is very important to understand after what interval you need to start scraping. Practice on a separate sheet of the same paper and with the same paints.

A stamp is the application of paint by pressing other objects onto paper. You can choose any material in order to create stamps. Try everything that comes your way.

In this example, we are using face wipes. Fill them with paint and apply stamps to the top of the paper.

You can also use a sponge. With its help, we will depict the grass.

You can play with textures using different materials. Experiment!

Don't be afraid to use body parts for stamps. Everything has its own use!

Washout

A relatively simple technique will help you create unusual and interesting textures.

First, cover the top of the paper with blue paint.

Then quickly paint over the rest of the canvas with red. This is what our drawing will look like at this stage.

Now rinse the brush well and refill it with clean water. With light movements of the brush, sprinkle drops of water on the still wet paint.

Keep splashing water until you are satisfied with the result.

The extent to which the paint has dried can be understood by the strength of the effect of water on it. Notice that the more water that gets on the same area, the lighter the shade of the paint becomes there.

Don't get frustrated if you can't control the blur. You, most likely, will not succeed, since it is quite difficult to influence this process.

Experiment with the amount of water, colors, and how dry the paint is. This technique can help you create interesting and textured backgrounds.

We use alcohol

You will need cotton swabs and alcohol.

Thickly paint over your sheet with paint.

Create the background shade you want and get ready for the fun.

Dip a Q-tip in alcohol and begin to drip it onto the paint.

Alcohol, falling on the paint, repels it, as it were, creating a bright spot.

Try dripping rubbing alcohol onto the paint as it dries to see the effect.

It turns out pretty nice, doesn't it?

This interesting technique allows you to create unusual textures.

We use salt

Obviously, we will need salt for this technique.

Let's draw the sky and the hill.

The second hill we will have is crimson, mix it a little with the first hill to get an interesting transition.

Now take the salt and sprinkle our drawing with it. After a few minutes, add some more salt. She pushes the paint away from herself, creating an unusual texture.

Let's wait for it all to dry and see what happens next.

After the drawing has dried, the effect that the salt has given becomes more visible.

Shake the salt off the drawing and enjoy the result.

It is better to use a sponge to brush off the salt. This way you don't damage the paint. Lightly clean the drawing, try not to rub it.

The salt absorbed the paint, creating a huge amount of star-like specks.

It is worth noting that coarse salt will leave larger spots, and fine, respectively, smaller ones.

Hello guys! I want to tell you what happened to me.
Yesterday
Brought to me as a gift by my sister
small bottle
Black-black ink.
I began to draw
But right off the bat
Dropped a huge blot.
And blurred
Spot on the sheet
It began to grow little by little:
On the left is a trunk, And on the right is a tail, Legs are like pedestals, Tall...
I immediately
Huge ears added to the black carcass,
And it turned out
Of course, he is - you guessed it - Indian ... (elephant).

Looking at drawings


Discussion. Children's reasoning about how to get an image.
Do you want to learn how to draw like this? Children's answers.
Demonstration of drawing methods by the teacher.
For work you will need: paper, paints, brush, water, felt-tip pens or pencils.


Let's prepare the paints - add a few drops of water to each color of the watercolor, fold the sheet of paper in half and unfold it.


On one side, closer to the middle, drop a few greasy drops - a blot. You can use paint of different colors.


Then fold the sheet in half along the fold line and draw the palm up and down several times so that the paint spreads over the sheet. To "transform" the blot, let's say the magic words.



Carefully unfold the sheet. You see a weird spot.


Think what it's like? Dream up. "Relive" blots - turn them into living creatures or objects. Carefully examine the blots, turning the sheets of paper in different directions. You can draw some details with a pencil.



Questions for children about the sequence of drawing.
Where do we start work?
Where are we going to put the paint?
How many drops will we drip?
When we put the leaf together, what will we do?
What should be done next?
When they came up with what it looks like with pencils ...... ..
Independent practical work of children.
Children master the usual blot technique. The teacher works individually. Gives instructions, helps to get the image in an unusual way. Encourages independence. He advises to carefully examine the blots, turning the sheets of paper in different directions. Shows for example: this is my blot, if you look at it like this, it looks like a butterfly, you just need to finish the antennae. And who will your blots turn into? The teacher quietly, in the ear asks each child about his intentions and associations, helps indecisive children with advice or indirect questions. The teacher works with more active, capable children. Gives them additional tasks. Analysis of children's work. At the end of the lesson, a general exhibition of "live" blots is arranged.

I'm making a new art album with my photos. The very first page is about carefree childhood and sunny summer. In this post, I posted not only a photo of the page, but also a small MK "How to make a blot".

How nice it is to put blots, especially bright ones! It's so nice that it's hard to stop, but you need to do it in time before the blot becomes too much 🙂

I took out my childhood watercolors and started creating a creative mess. Then I applied the created background for the page in the album. With the help of stamps, I added the inscription "Summer", as well as a dragonfly and a bee.

Is it difficult to make blots? No, it's available to everyone. It is difficult to put a blot in the right place!

I present to you a brief MK "How to make a blot":

  1. You will need: watercolor paper, watercolor paints, a piece of gauze and water.
  2. Make a ball of gauze, wet it and dip it in paint.
  3. Throw a gauze ball on paper.
  4. You can press the gauze a little before lifting it off the paper to make the blot more oily.
