If you have lived in the country, even for a while, you have known all the delights of civilized life. Eternal grunting, croaking, fearless birds running around, roosters fighting, pigs taking mud baths. And geese. Here we will learn how to draw a goose with a pencil.On the one hand, the goose is an inconspicuous bird, but it has a lot to learn. For example, he knows firsthand what love is. They choose a partner for themselves already at the age of 3, and since then they have remained monogamous. If a partner passes away earlier, then they grieve for a long time and rarely find a second partner. Sadness, alas. It deserves respect. Animals that have this attachment to others prove that relationships can be based on more than expensive cars, money, brainwashing and an eternal need for all sorts of garbage.
People learn little from their own mistakes, and even more so from those of others. Even with such a simple bird, you can take a good example, instead of the eternal search for answers in space, compatibility horoscopes, dreams and other heresy.
I have not told you all the interesting things about these very ordinary birds. To increase your intellectual piggy bank, here are some interesting points for you:
- Little goslings already know how to swim almost a day after birth. And they are actively engaged in this for muscle development. If you suddenly had a crazy idea to drown goslings - you flew by with a bang.
- Birds are experts in aerodynamics. And the goose is no exception. They move in a wedge to reduce air resistance. And it looks cool if you put such a picture to the music from the Brigade, or something like that.
- Once a year, all geese severely molt. And these are not your cat's hairballs. They go bald from head to toe and practically cannot fly for 5-6 weeks.
- All great writers before the 19th century bow before geese. And why? Because it was from their feathers that pens were made. The core of the goose feather was distinguished by its hardness and durability.
- And yet, the goose is the hero of Rome. A historical fact, during the attack of wild Gauls at night on Rome, crowds of geese began to yell and throw stones, which woke up the soldiers, and they gladly chopped up all the Gauls, and threw the rest into the gap.
But, let's be honest with ourselves, the goose is delicious meat, warm feathers and big eggs. We rarely think about the essence of animals, and the chicken also wants to live. Though it might be for the best. For if they thought about living creatures, then they would become vegetarians without exception.
How to draw a goose with a pencil step by step
Step one. First, draw two circles, large and small, and connect them with a curve. Step two. In accordance with the circles, draw the bird's body, long neck, beak and eyes. Step three. We remove the extra lines from the first circles, outline the body itself with more fat, draw the paws and the ground under them. Step four. It remains to carefully draw the main attribute of the bird - plumage. You can add hatching. 
And here he is a goose. Alive and unharmed, standing and waiting for his time. But you should not wait with him, it is better to try to draw other birds.
Once I was asked to come up with a riddle in verse about a goose for a children's matinee, and the pinnacle of my creativity was “I scream ha-ha-ha, with webbed feet.”
But before we start drawing, a couple of announcements.
Thirdly, a book with will be released soon, interesting and fascinating, Remy Oren nervously smokes in a corner, stay tuned.
Fourthly, now you can support our project financially without spending any money. If you are going to buy something on Ozone, go to Ozone using the link from our website (“showcase” at the bottom of the right column), and a small percentage of the amount of your purchase will drop into our account. Of course, a trifle, but still nice.
Well, that's all the news, and now grab your easels and brushes!
Let's start drawing a goose with such a squiggle, it will be a full-face beak, i.e. front. By the way, many people say “in full face”, which is not true: the correct thing is “full face”, without “in”. Please note: the tips are slightly bent up. If you need a sad goose, turn them down.
And along the beak - a smile. My right tip did not reach the edge a little, it is better to bring it.
From above we draw a head (it resembles an egg in shape) and eyes ...
... and add a forelock:
Teaex, now the neck. Such a long (but without fanaticism, this is not a boa constrictor!) goose neck. If you draw it as even as a log, you get a goose with a stupid expression on its face, so the neck first narrows, and then expands back:
Finished with the neck and finish drawing the belly. In form, it is similar to ours:
Wings. In my drawing they look up left and up right (at about 10 and 2 o'clock), you can position them however you want. We draw an arc to the left and up ...
... and we return back with such ruffles-waves:
Double two:
The wings turned out to be quite thin, you can draw wide ones, he still has to fly south.
Paws. Slightly beveled to the side "glasses" (if you draw them vertically, it turns out that the goose is either standing on tiptoe, or hanging in the air).
Lesson drawing domestic animals, namely birds. We will look at how to draw a goose with a pencil in stages. The goose is a migratory bird, but domestic geese do not know how to fly, they bred such a breed. Geese were domesticated a long time ago in the ancient world in Egypt, Rome and China. But in Greece, he was as a pet, such as a cat or a dog in our time. Some noble persons kept 20 geese. Geese in the wild live near water expanses and in meadows, feed on plants and seeds, and can also eat insects. There are several types of geese, they differ in color and habitat. Also, there used to be goose fights, but now they have sunk into oblivion, if they fight, then cockfights. And the goose is a formidable bird, it protects its offspring and the female, while it hisses terribly and can pounce and bite very painfully.
Here is our copy.
We draw a part of the head, as shown in the picture, then a beak and an eye. This is an enlarged version, we draw a small head.
Draw the neck of the goose.
Erase unnecessary lines on the head and sketch out the body.
Now, with smooth lines, draw the outline of the body and tail, mark where the legs are.
Erase the auxiliary lines and draw the paws and wings of the goose.
To make the goose look more realistic, paint over the beak and imitate feathers, these are small curves in the most pronounced places. Also in the lower part and the neck we apply a little shadow. The drawing of the domestic goose is ready.

Love spells with a prayer for the Annunciation, which is celebrated on April 7, have a special power and certainly help to bewitch a loved one forever by falling in love with him.
Thank you for all the Christmas love spells presented, I did a love spell in the church when they celebrated the Christmas holiday and I believe that everything worked out for me and the love prayer will work very quickly. To conduct a love spell, I select and adopt any valuable and semi-precious stones that enhance and direct amorous magic in the right direction.
Other ingredients - depending on the type of love spell. To do this, in the words of a love spell for holy Christmas, it is enough to replace the words slave with a slave.

The colors we need are very simple.. we will be muting the yellow (Nickel Azo Yellow) with red (Subtle Red) and red-brown (Quinacridone Rust) colors. This time I had to mix a little more colors with Cobalt Violet than usual.
Skills you will get:
- Water image
- Reflections
Materials used:
- watercolor paper 6x8 Twinrocker Cold Press
- round brush, sable Isabey №14
Paints:
- (watercolor M. Graham transparent watercolors)
- Yellow (Nickel Azo Yellow)
- Cobalt Blue
- Cobalt Violet
- Red-brown (Quinacridone Rust)
- Van Dyke Brown
Stage 1
I start with a light fill of Cobalt Blue mixed with Cobalt Violet. In the background, I use horizontal strokes, and around the geese on the water I start to draw ripples.
If you are painting a portrait :) always paint your own shadows at the same time as the base for the background. You should combine them from the very beginning, as we almost never see clear boundaries between the background objects in the shadows.
Photo of Canadian geese. Aren't they wonderful? Stage 2
While the drawing is still raw, I start painting the water. Don't worry about the reflection for now, as it is much darker than its surroundings.
Pay attention to how the waves connect with each other and in which direction they diverge. If you prescribe them wet, then there will be a feeling of reality. It is only necessary to make strokes in the right directions.
Stage 3
It's time for reflections! Draw them in the same way as the ripples on the water: leave the light side of the wave and paint over the dark side.
For reflections, I use a lot of water on the brush, and for drawing geese I use a dry brush. However, where water shimmers, you can also paint dry. Reflections are in the very foreground, so pay special attention to them.
Stage 4
Artistic advice: First you need to draw the main background, and then the reflections of objects.
To draw a goose, you do not need to plan in advance every brush stroke. Each subsequent action will follow from the previous one, so think about color better. Remember that when writing with a dry brush, the colors do not spread and thus do not mix. They are mixed by applying one layer to another.
Pay attention to how each group of pens is positioned and try to convey this on paper. Don't paint every single feather, paint the entire group with one stroke of the brush.
Stage 5
For drawing goslings, I use a dry brush (and my own fingers). Goslings are like fluffy balls, so they need to be drawn in a very soft manner.
Draw the heads with a few strokes. Do not put too much effort into drawing all the smallest details.
Stage 6
Draw the adult goose with a dry brush more carefully. Where the light falls, leave more white.
Stage 7
Let's work a little more on the goslings. We could draw feathers, but then we get the effect of a photograph, which is too boring. It is much more difficult to do without displaying all the details.
Look carefully at the object you are depicting, discard everything superfluous. We will leave only beaks!
"Canadian geese on the pond" are ready.
The geese motif is very simple, but we know that a simple-looking picture is very difficult to draw!
It took me an hour to get to work (not counting drying breaks). Everything went smoothly, so one session was enough for me. To be honest, watercolor is the kind of painting where you have to redraw the same thing several times in order to achieve the desired result. Every movement of the brush is important here and there is no room for error.
It seems to me that the benefit of redrawing multiple times is greatly underestimated. Frankly, I do not think that you can achieve a good result if you work on a picture for a whole month. It will be dry and overloaded, unless, of course, you wrote it only once a week. (In this case, it makes sense to work for a month.) The limited time for painting is a big problem for artists.
In order for a watercolor painting to look fresh and at ease, it seems to me that one or two sessions of 3 hours are needed (excluding drying time). As soon as you put more effort into it, it will become dry. In this case, it is better to start all over again, applying half as much paint to it as you did it the first time.
If we are talking about redrawing, then this is exactly what I had to do when I was preparing the next lesson. But I don't regret it - I learned a lot in the process.
Today's picture is very simple in appearance and that's what I don't like about it. My youngest son agrees with me, he asked me to hang it in his room.
And I drew this for my eldest son's nursery. It is a little different from my current style as it was drawn 9 years ago.
