I think that in this case it will be necessary to first talk with the child in order to find out exactly how he understands the essence of the categories of good and evil, which are rather relative than absolute. It is clear that this topic is rather complicated for a small person, therefore, when depicting the symbols of Good and Evil on paper, it will most likely be necessary to dwell on attempts to convey emotions from the perception of these concepts. Here are examples that are fairly simple to implement:
Draw evil and good emoticons:
You can also focus on fairy-tale heroes - as a rule, in fairy tales everything is very straightforward and obvious, a child can easily distinguish between positive and negative characters. You can invite the baby to independently pick up associations and transfer them to paper. Most often, children in older kindergarten groups already have their own ideas about angels and demons - you can use them as symbols:
The world through the eyes of a child is completely different from the world of an adult. Children and adults often see the same things differently. And even more often the child is not able to figure out on his own what is good and what is bad. For such global explanations, there are adults wiser with life experience. Now, using a few simple examples, we will try to clarify the situation in a language accessible to children, using drawing;)
Here are a few pictures that tell you what not to do: torture bugs, chicks, litter and fight.
And here are situations from real life: feeding birds, helping with heavy bags, saving a drowning man and congratulating a grandmother. These are, of course, good deeds, which means that the counterweight to evil is good.
In fact, good and evil can be drawn as you like, but it is best to contrast, balance the composition in one picture. For example, let's take a more complex abstract composition with a tree. First, we draw a joyful, happy picture, and as opposed to it, on the second half of the sheet, everything is vice versa.
Do not compose everything for the child, give free rein to his imagination, push your child in the right direction, let him create :)
And for example, a few more works
Everyone has their own visual expression and vision of good and evil.
I propose to consider the image of good in the form of an angel, and evil - a devil.
At the same time, a similar drawing is sometimes used as a tattoo that carries the same struggle and contradictions.
We define what evil is. Do not wash your hands because you can get sick, hurt girls and fight boys because the stronger ones can beat you too. What is good? Help the elders, do not break trees, do homework well.
On one half of the sheet, draw a boy with a slingshot, on the other half of the sheet, draw a girl with a book.
Correctly draw a picture on the theme of Good and Evil so
Draw a fire on the entire sheet, several trees in its background, a bucket of water next to it or draw a fire extinguisher, see below how to draw a fire extinguisher in such a picture
Figure step by step bucket
How to draw a boy step by step
Found how to draw mango evil and good, a very simple option. And children will love to draw the girl's face in stages. One is bad, the other is good.
the drawing is simple, the video can be stopped in the process of drawing. Of course, the language is English, but the language is not very important here, the main thing is that the artist shows his work in stages.
It seems to me that this topic is so broad that you can draw anything: from Christian motifs to everyday things.
Most likely, children are invited to draw what is good in their concept and what is evil.
For example, good is associated with family, love, care, friendship, and evil is associated with their destruction.
Another option is drawings illustrating proverbs and aphorisms about good and / or evil.
For example like this:
To draw Good and Evil, you need to understand how the child imagines them, with what characters, images he associates these moral concepts.
As a rule, Good is something bright, beautiful, bright, smiling, and therefore you can draw the sun, a rainbow, animals, flowers:
If we talk about Evil, then you can draw a gloomy cloud, an evil beast, some kind of monster:
Good and evil, that is, good and bad. We must first deal with the concepts of evil and good.

What is good and how to draw it? Participants of the 7th city drawing competition "Do good", dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the NGO "We are Sevastopol" gave their answer. The final of the competition took place on November 12 at the Sevastopol Palace of Children's and Youth Creativity.
The jury selected the winners in 3 age categories from 600 works drawn by students from 40 schools in the city. The organizing committee did not expect such a vivid interest in the competition under the motto "Do good". According to Tatyana Kravtsova, manager of the NGO We Are Sevastopol, the jury expected to receive about 100 works, but more than half a thousand were submitted to the competition. All of them correspond to the theme and fully reveal the theme of goodness.
“This competition is held within the framework of the Happy Childhood program. For our organization, this is the 7th competition in 2 years. It is timed to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the organization "We are Sevastopol", and children from almost all schools in the city and the rural area took part in it, - notes Tatyana Kravtsova. - The fantasy of the guys, the plot, the drawing techniques are above all praise. I am proud that such talented boys and girls live in Sevastopol!”.
In honor of the 10th anniversary of the NGO "We are Sevastopol" slightly deviated from the rules of the competition and established 6 incentive gifts in addition to 9 prizes. The authors of the 100 best works also received drawing kits.
“Even the smallest artists in this competition sometimes outperformed adults. Sometimes it was difficult to determine: either this is a child's drawing, or an adult helped. I have a feeling that everything that happens in the culture of Sevastopol is reflected in children's creativity. Our future speaks to us in the language of drawings,” concluded Anatoly Shorokhov, Honored Artist of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, chairman of the jury of the Do Good contest.
For the 2nd and 3rd places, the artists received tablets as a gift, for the 1st - digital cameras. As incentive prizes, 6 contestants were awarded watches. Creativity kits were handed over to the authors of 100 best works, selected from 600. NGO “We are Sevastopol” also awarded certificates of appreciation to drawing teachers, curators of art studios of the city, who worked with children on the eve of the competition.
“Such competitions for children are very important in our city. They stimulate the development of creativity, they are very interested in thinking about a given topic, expecting results, receiving prizes and gifts, - Elena Limonova, teacher of the art studio at secondary school No. 37, draws attention. - Children have drawn many philosophical works on the theme of goodness, and even adult artists have a lot to learn. We are very grateful for the opportunity to participate in such a competition. Thanks a lot!".
The deputies of the legislative assembly of the city Alexander Kovshar and Irina Kravets, the chairman of the public chamber of Sevastopol Evgeny Khalaychev took part in the award ceremony. The assistant to the dean of the Sevastopol district, father Alexander, delivered a solemn speech.
The first place in the category from 6 to 10 years was taken by a student of secondary school No. 37 Gleb Petukhov. He depicted the planet and people who help each other. Among artists aged 11 to 13, the winner was Maria Deorditsa, secondary school No. 37. For Masha, the social programs of the NGO "We are Sevastopol" - "Veteran", "Save a Life", "Spiritual Heritage" and "Life without Cataracts" - became the embodiment of goodness in her works. She painted them with gouache on paper. “Good is something selfless that you do from the heart and soul,” shared Maria Deorditsa. In the category from 14 to 17 years old, the Grand Prix was taken by Arina Nenasheva, who represented the BDDyT.
On the topic of ecology and protection of the environment, Elvira Basyrova, secondary school No. 22, spoke in her drawings. She took 2nd place in the age category from 14 to 17 years.
“I made two pictures, they are dedicated to the theme of subbotniks as helping our city to be beautiful and clean. In the first picture, I depicted the autumn collection of leaves, and in the second, the spring planting of trees and caring for them, ”said Elvira. She is in 11th grade and dreams of becoming a designer.
“I drew how a cat was given food, and a birdhouse was built for the birds,” says Vanya Protasov, a participant in the Do Good contest, a student at the Mayak art studio. - I myself have a dog, I feed it. And in the yard we sheltered kittens.
“I drew a stray cat in the forest and wrote “Take us home”. He began to draw at the school, from portraits. Kindness is help to the whole world!” - Stanislav Dontsov, 12 years old, student of the Sevastopol Presidential Cadet School.
Works of young artists under the motto "Do good!" they talk about the main thing: goodness is love. For little Sevastopol residents, this is love for the world around them, people, veterans and the elderly, nature, homeless brothers, our smaller ones, and all living things. And it seems that not in words, but in deeds, they already know what “Not a day without a good deed” means.
What interpretations of the theme of kindness do children offer? Mom with a child, the sun, a kitten, pigeons ... a bright sunny day, a flowering meadow, a mother holding a child by the hand, or who brought a bouquet of wild flowers. You can imagine a different picture: the sky covered with clouds, pouring rain, puddles ... The boy holds out his umbrella or brings a board to make a bridge over a huge puddle.
However, these are just the simplest solutions. Perhaps, kindness is a more fundamental concept, although it can be embodied in the simplest actions, in which, it would seem, there is nothing heroic. The girl puts it back into the nest, under the wing of an alarmed mother bird, which has fallen out. A teenage boy removes a kitten from a tree to return it crying. Children bring their lost glasses to their grandmother. The boy is leading an old man with a cane across the road. You can come up with or remember a lot of different situations.
Illustrations for fairy tales about kindness
You can make illustrations for one of the well-known good fairy tales. Dr. Aibolit, who treats animals, immediately comes to mind. Or Dunno in the Sunny City, who has done three good deeds. Or perhaps the woodcutter's son Til-Til, who brought his sick neighbor's girl, from Maeterlinck's play The Blue Bird. Older children can turn to more serious philosophical tales. For example, draw a statue of the Happy Prince and a swallow sitting on its shoulder from Oscar Wilde's sad fairy tale "The Happy Prince". Or the kinder Scrooge, who sends a huge turkey as a gift to the poor family of his employee Gyrfalcon, from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol in Prose. Or Gorky's Danko, holding his burning heart in his hand held high...The theme of goodness in the work of Pablo Picasso
In the history of world painting, Pablo Picasso, in the so-called “blue” period of his work, came closest to the image of goodness. Then in his paintings a plot often appeared where the weak protects the even weaker. For example, in the painting “The Beggar Old Man with the Boy”, the beggar gives the child the last piece of bread. A barefoot boy - most likely an orphan - seeks to caress a dog as homeless as himself ("Boy with a Dog"). A little girl holds a white dove in her hands, trying to warm and protect it ("Girl with a Dove").Everyone sees and understands good in their own way and can come up with their own version of a drawing on a given topic. The main thing is that good exists not only on paper or canvas, but also in the soul of the artist.
Many people want to depict evil on paper. Thinking about how to draw good and evil, various images pop up in the imagination. If you can choose angels, fairies, a child for the role of good, then demons or the devil, who can sit surrounded by flames and is the personification of absolute evil, most often act as evil. Many in the form of evil choose a slender figure in a hood with a scythe. As a rule, both depend only on the artist's imagination, which sometimes gives out the most unexpected plots. But in this article, we propose to draw a demon as evil.
Draw a demon
Before you draw an evil demon, you should think carefully about the details of his appearance, so that later it would be easier to portray them. Then you can take a sheet of paper and a pencil, and outline the composition of the picture. If, in addition to the demon, other objects and characters are present on the sheet, then space should be given to them on paper. With light strokes, you need to mark the top, bottom and width of the demon's body. Then you should divide the figure into details: the oval of the head, arms, torso, legs, and gradually add specifics, highlighting the angle of rotation of the head, rotation of the torso, arm movement, and so on. As a result, the figure of the demon should take shape in the drawing.
After that, you can erase the extra lines and think, perhaps you can draw any objects in his hands. Now you need to outline the shape of the demon's wings, for this the shape of the wings of angels is quite suitable, only dark in color, you can draw them broken, or torn and thin, like a bat, or like a dragon, strong and with spikes. The body of the demon can be decorated with a tattoo, and the head with horns or long hair. The main thing is that all the details are in harmony with each other. After that, you can draw the lines of muscles on the body of your evil, and move on to smaller details - ears, claws, clothing details and the demon's face. First, outline the location of the eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth with strokes. As soon as an organic combination of shapes and sizes is found, you can move on to their more detailed drawing.
And finally, the drawing should be finalized, erasing the unnecessary and decisively outlining the outline. After that, you can draw the entourage of the picture. That's it, the drawing is ready! Now you know how to draw evil and you can show your drawings to your friends.
