In this lesson, I want to show you in detail how to draw a church with a pencil step by step. A drawing made with colored pencils will be shown. We hope you enjoy it! With the help of a few colors, you will be able to build a full-fledged structure. The master class consists of step-by-step drawings, with a detailed description, which greatly simplifies the task. Here you can learn how to draw a church with a pencil step by step for beginners. Also on the site you can find out the site, along with our lesson.
Stages of work:
With the help of squares and a rectangle, we will build the general shape of the drawn church. There will be a long vertical rectangle on the left, a horizontal square on the right, and a large rectangle on the bottom. To draw a church with a pencil beautifully in stages, choose high-quality materials - plain paper, pencils or paints. You can use a ruler to draw the church neatly;
Let's draw the roofs and external walls of the church;
We continue to draw the church, namely to add details. Bells will be located on top, columns and doors below;
We add all the elements of the church: windows and crosses. Delete extra lines with an eraser and move on to color;
First we apply the lightest shade in this picture of the church - yellow. We apply it not over the entire drawing, but in some places, as shown in the figure. This color will help show the glare from the sun;
Next, stroke the roofs, domes and stairs of the church with orange;
Light green color draw some areas on the roof;
With blue and purple we will draw a shadow on the church;
We will cover the rest of the surface of our painted church with a light pink tint;
The windows are painted black. We draw a horizontal line for the base;
To complete the picture, we add bushes on the sides with the help of two green shades.
The drawing is complete. Now you know how to draw a church step by step with a pencil, and I'm sure if you try, you will definitely succeed. I'm waiting for your beautiful drawings in the comments, good luck to everyone! This lesson is quite difficult, because in order to draw a temple with a pencil in stages, you will need a lot of time and patience. There are a lot of small details in this drawing, which are the architectural decorations of the temple. Despite the fact that when drawing, they most often do not use a ruler, we still really need it. The temple is, first of all, an architectural structure, which means that its drawing consists of many clear and even lines. For their more accurate transmission, we need a ruler.
On our site you can also learn how to draw Easter cake with eggs- drawing of medium complexity and drawing for easter- a fairly simple drawing.
So, let's start drawing the main lines of the future temple with a pencil. If you doubt that you can transfer the proportions to paper correctly enough, then simply measure all the lines with a ruler and transfer them to the paper in the appropriate ratio.
Now let's draw a block on top and a small narrow rectangle at the bottom. We highlight each new element in red in order to make it easier for you to draw each new element.
Now let's draw two rectangles on the left and right, and also in the middle we need to draw several geometric shapes that will be the basis of the middle part of the temple.
We add windows - there are 10 of them and they are all in the form of an arch, we also finish drawing the elements at the very top.
In this picture, we add a few more decorative elements.
Now we draw domes - this is one of the distinguishing features of temples and churches from other buildings. At the end of each dome, we will draw a circle, on which we will further draw a cross.
In this step we need to draw a lot of columns. They are located both on the left side and on the right, and there are also a lot of them in the center of the temple - look carefully at the enlarged hint in order not to miss anything.
We decorate the upper part of the temple with elements.
At this stage, we will draw decorative elements on each column of the temple with a pencil. And also add one inner arch in each of the ten windows.
Well, the temple is ready. Now you can start coloring it.

Step 1.
At the bottom of the sheet, we put a point from which we draw three lines, one vertical and two inclined at approximately 15 degrees.Step 2
Based on the lines built in the last step, we complete the parallelepiped, its base and two front side edges.
Step 3
We draw a vertical line to build a dome on it and make four notches. We also draw four more verticals on the sides of the parallelepiped, on their basis further elements of the building will be built.
Step 4
We build the dome of the church. We draw its base in the form of an arc, then a tower emerging from this base, and in the end we build the main elements of the dome itself using arcs and ovals. On the side wall of the building, we emphasize the protruding elements of the church in the form of semi-cylinders with several arcs.
Step 5
We complete the dome of the building, emphasizing its shape. Next to the arches we show the shape of the upper arched ledges of the church walls, on the left side several arcs will form small domes of the cylinder-shaped ledges depicted in the previous stage. On the right side, with several lines, we divide the wall into several parts, each of which will contain certain elements of architecture.
Step 6
We are finalizing the upper tower, depicting a number of small oval-shaped windows along its perimeter. We emphasize the shape of some of the upper ledges of the walls, giving them a small volume. On the left side, on each of the ledges, draw one window and draw cutouts in the towers with several vertical lines. On the right side, we also draw windows, draw cutouts in the walls and draw the door of the church below.
Step 7
We draw a cross over the dome and shade it, depict a shadow falling from it on the dome, which we also hatch. We depict the ornaments on the tower and apply the necessary shadows. We draw a falling shadow from the tower on the dome, which is its base. We draw shadows in windows and doors. We shade the edge closest to us, as if dulling it.
Depicting architecture requires a lot of effort. For beginners, this is not as difficult as portraits, for example. This is because the painted buildings are perceived differently than the people we know, and here the errors are less visible. I will show you how to draw the Assumption Cathedral step by step. I forbid using a ruler or any other tools that make it easier to draw straight lines! Learn to draw by hand. When your hand gains experience and confidence, you can use any tricks. Now draw the cathedral on your own!
Step one. We will show on paper the place where the cathedral and trees will be located. 
Step two. We draw the main components of the building. 
Step three. Let's detail each of these parts. Take your time, carefully work out every detail: crosses, domes, windows and even trees. 
Step four. In order for the landscape to be realistic, we will add more background and shadows.
