Glad to welcome you back to my blog. Why are different methods for developing creative abilities in children so popular now? What do they give and how to teach a child to draw at 3 years old? How to teach a child to draw without pushing? Let's talk about it? Then let's go!
Child can't draw
Until the age of 3, my baby brushed the sheets with paint the way he wanted. I chose mostly dark colors. By the way, do not be alarmed if your baby prefers dark tones. Black color is the strongest of all, therefore it attracts the attention of children. Finger paints are great to start with. When buying, be sure to look at the composition, this is important. I was guided by the price and composition, since I am familiar with the list of natural dyes. For initial training, you can use an unnecessary piece of wallpaper or whatman paper. Don't forget to cover the floor with oilcloth if you paint on the floor. I fixed a sheet of drawing paper on the wall, and we created in free form. The main thing is to arouse interest in the crumbs. Some ideas from the Internet will help you come up with a plot for the drawing. Click on picture for detailed view
We draw the simplest drawings with our fingers: a circle, a square, then a flower or a tree as many times as the child asks. Believe me, very little time will pass and he will repeat everything exactly after you, it will look very decent and beautiful. Moreover, drawing shapes and figures with fingers is a kind of corrective activity, it is in this way that it is best to acquaint the baby with the forms.
let's go further
When the baby has mastered the basics with the help of paints, hand him a simple pencil with a soft neck. Your task is to teach correctly, to hold a pencil.
- show him how to draw regular lines (long and short);
- repeat the past, try to draw simple geometric shapes together.
When my child mastered these skills on his own, we switched to various manuals, which, by the way, help modern mothers a lot. You can purchase ready-made magazines or find and print ready-made drawings from the web. My little one loved to connect straight and smooth lines point by point, and then see what happened in the end.
After a simple pencil, the next stage comes - multi-colored felt-tip pens. I will correct myself. Take those that are easy to rinse with water (this information is written on the package). Children often like to draw where it is impossible. You can save furniture and washable wallpaper if you spot the rock art in time. In the first 15-20 minutes, it is very easy to remove, wash off a bright felt-tip pen with an ordinary damp cloth (from the face, by the way, too).
We really like to draw with oil pastels - it doesn’t get your hands dirty, it’s easy to draw even for the smallest, and the drawings are no less bright than with a felt-tip pen. But the pastel is different, there are hard wax crayons and it will be difficult for kids to make an effort, but there are oil pencils, they are soft and you don’t need to press.
Complex drawings
Complicated drawings: a dog, a butterfly, were given to us quite hard. My child had a hard time failing if something did not work out for him. So, again, I turned to professionals for help. Ready notebooks, albums with blanks. I really liked the methodology of the Scientific Research Institute "Evrika"
Notebook-simulator, in which step-by-step, step-by-step educational drawings of animals are presented. In just a couple of weeks, my baby successfully mastered complex drawings. He began to simply depict about 50 animals. Don't believe? Try it yourself. You will definitely like it. At first, we sat together over a notebook, but then the baby began to show independent interest, and I had a free minute. Notepad on ozon
On your own, you can easily teach your baby to portray:
- sun;
- person;
- transport (using geometric shapes);
- butterfly (one oval in the center and 2 circles on each side);
- some animals that are easy to perform.
There is nothing better than colorful gouache. Draw together, learn with your child.
Unusual techniques and drawings
Draw and learn numbers
Studying the issue thoroughly, I came across interesting offers on the net. Drawing by numbers turned out to be quite affordable for children of 3 years old. We not only mastered the basics of mathematics, got acquainted with numbers, taught them. But they (numbers) amusingly overgrown with whole stories.
- from one you can make a ship;
- the deuce easily turns into a swan or a duck (it was a duck that came out in our country);
- 3-ka or 8ku can be transformed into a bunny;
- A friendly snail came out of the 9-ki.
Everything is limited only by your imagination. With the help of numbers, you can draw almost all the animals of the Earth. But for this it is necessary to think in advance what each figure can turn into.
Point drawing
The pictures are clickable, we printed them out and drew them:
A simple and at the same time useful way to learn how to draw a baby. The child draws lines connecting dots. So he learns to master his hand in order to draw a straight line, to prepare for writing in the future. Secondly, the kid, drawing along the lines, he remembers how to depict objects, what details need to be drawn in order to depict the object. That is, what lines are enough to get a duck, for example.
Drawing by numbers
We connect the numbers in order. You can’t do without the help of your mother if the baby does not yet know the numbers. But do not discard this method. Suddenly, the child will like it, and a big bonus from such drawing is the easy study of numbers.
Drawing is a very interesting kind of applied art, drawings with paints for children allow you to develop personal qualities in children, instill in them a sense of taste. Studying with a child, you can teach him to think, think, feel. It is especially useful to draw with paints with young children. After all, drawing a year, they develop fine motor skills of the hand, which is very useful for mental development.
At two years old, children not only willingly play with blocks, but also show interest in drawing. Here, mom has the opportunity to show all her creative imagination. You can draw almost anything. It can be chairs, toys, dishes, a beloved cat.
Drawings with paints for children will help to fully prepare the baby for further education at school. Firstly, hand coordination and fine motor skills for 4 years improve, and secondly, intelligence can be developed.
Well, making precise movements with a brush or pencil is a great way to prepare your hand for writing.
You can teach in a playful way to distinguish colors and paints, determine sizes and teach elementary counting. Drawing helps to cope with psychological complexes up to 7 years.
Since simple paint drawings can be started early enough, it is not necessary to wait until the child asks for drawing tools. To begin with, you can draw yourself, saying “look what I will draw,” and the baby can easily act as a spectator. A baby at 4 months of age will not yet be able to hold a pencil or brush.
At the same time, not only pencils and paints can act as materials. You can master finger painting with the help of fingers and palms.
What colors are suitable for children's creativity
To date, in stores you can buy paints that are ideal for children's creativity. Among them:
- Special finger painting kits for children 2 years old.
- Gouache paints - from the age of four.
- Watercolor from 6 years old.
Since we plan to start drawing lessons from 2-3 years old, it is worth choosing finger ones. For children 3-4 years old, you can switch to gouache and watercolor.
Drawing with paints for children should not be monotonous. It is not necessary to color a regular sheet of paper. You need to gradually add new elements.
On the video: how to simply and beautifully draw an octopus with paints.
What drawings should I start with?
If we are learning to draw, then we need to start with the simplest. As you gain experience and skills, the task will become more difficult. Working with a child, you do not need to ensure that he does everything right. Children must go through the stage of marania. This stage continues until about two years of age. At first, the baby will simply scribble pencils on paper.
However, a little more can be taught at this time. Note:
- With children 2-3 years old, you can master the skills of working with a pencil, felt-tip pen and brush.
- From five, carefully put dots, make lines, circles, an oval, paint over drawings with strokes.
- With seven, it’s really possible to master the skills of composition.
Easy Drawing Lessons for Toddlers
These simple drawing lessons I usually spend with kids. Very interesting are children's drawings in the technique of finger painting. Here's how to do it:
- Invite your child to dip their finger into the paint. Now put your finger on a sheet of paper, you get a speck.
- Help draw a petal or some kind of caterpillar.
- Drawing lines, draw rays, like the sun.
Now let the child try to draw something himself. As his hands become more confident at 5 years old, you can teach him how to use a brush. You need to show the kid the three basic skills of drawing with a brush, show how to rinse it before picking up new paint.
There are several ways to paint with a brush:
- Soaking. We draw, lightly touching the paper, and immediately remove the brush, causing spots of paint. Have a 3-year-old child observe how the image is made.
- Brushstroke technique. Carefully draw lines from the age of 3 in a variety of directions. Let them differ in length.
- Draw a sketch with a pencil with 8. First, make the main lines and sketch with a pencil, and then paint.
As skills develop, the tasks will become more difficult. There are some very interesting techniques. They can be mastered by conducting regular classes with the child. To consolidate a particular skill, several lessons are required.

I have a pencil
colorful gouache,
watercolor, palette, brush
And a thick sheet of paper
And also - an easel-tripod,
Because I ... (artist)
Hello dear guests! Wonderful profession of an artist. He should take paper, brushes, paints. There was nothing on paper, but the first lines appeared: one, the other - the picture is ready.
An artist can draw everything: a house, a forest, people, animals. And the artist paints pictures. And writes according to his plan, like a writer
An artist is a person who knows how to see beauty in the ordinary, remembers his impressions and knows how to express his thoughts and fantasies on paper, stone or other material.
The artist knows how to create new worlds in his paintings and drawings, unprecedented beauties and outlandish animals, and sometimes something completely new, the colors on the drawings turn into fireworks of colors and shades, they cause incredible joyful emotions.
The first artists appeared in the Stone Age. The role of canvas or paper was then played by the walls of stone caves and various household items of ancient people, and charcoal and mineral dyes served as paints for artists. The work of the artist was closely connected with the manufacture of paints, and people considered this to be a magical act. Much later, people began to paint icons, portraits, still lifes, landscapes, and they began to call all this the world of fine arts (the art of capturing images).
So, artists are people involved in fine arts, there are many different directions in this profession:
-Artist-artist in the broad sense of the word (he can do everything)
-A person who makes visual arts
-Graphic artist-engaged in graphics (pencil drawings, charcoal, felt-tip pens)
-Photo artist-does photo art
-Artist-animator
-Illustrator
- Painter - painting.
Painting is the art of representing objects with colors. One of the types of fine arts associated with the transmission of visual images by applying paint to a rigid or flexible surface. The name came from the two words "live" (live) and "write" (draw) - that's how it turns out to write like a living thing, and artists involved in painting began to be called painters.
In the art gallery
There are very, very many of them.
On this sea we see
And over there on that road.
Oil, watercolor
Creation artists. (Paintings)
There are many different directions (themes for drawing) in painting, consider some of them:
If you see what's in the picture
Someone looks at us
Or a prince in an old cloak,
Or a climber in a robe,
Pilot or ballerina
Or Kolya, your neighbor,
Be sure to picture
It's called a portrait.
If you see in the picture
A cup of coffee on the table
Or juice in a large decanter,
Or a rose in crystal
Or a bronze vase
Or a pear, or a cake,
Or all items at once,
Know that this is a still life.
If you see in the picture
The river is drawn
Or spruce and white frost,
Or a garden and clouds
Or a snowfield
Or a field and a hut,
Be sure to picture
It's called landscape
The artist writes his paintings and drawings with the help of various paints - gouache, watercolor and many other paints. A real artist first of all always gets acquainted with his paints, studies their properties, colors and shades. Conducts experiments on mixing paints and obtaining new colors, dilutes them with water or draws thickly, saturated. Today we will get acquainted with watercolor, what kind of paints are they?
Their name is associated with water because "Aqua" means "water". When you dissolve them with water and start drawing, the effect of lightness, airiness, subtle color transitions is created. Before painting, paints must be moistened with water. We dip the brush in clean water and shake off the drops on the paints, without touching them with the bristle of the brush.
Before you start drawing, you need to try the colors. Each color is tried on paper, we pick up paint on a brush and draw small specks of the color of each paint. And you can immediately see which paint is transparent, and which is strong-saturated. A very important feature of watercolors is that the more you dilute them with water, the more transparent they will appear, well, if you add less water, the colors will be more saturated. After trying each color, you need to wash the brush so as not to stain the paints. Watercolor paint is sonorous, transparent, loves cleanliness. After we got acquainted with all the colors, we can conduct experiments on mixing different colors, two, or even three. Remember which paint is friends with which, or vice versa, their friendship ends badly and it turns out a dirty puddle.
Three colors, three colors, three colors
Guys, isn't that enough?
And where can we get green, orange?
And if we mix paints in pairs?
From blue and red (this one)
We will get the color ... (purple).
And we mix blue with yellow.
What color do we get? (green)
And red plus yellow, it's not a secret for everyone,
They will give us of course ... (orange color).
This exercise to get acquainted with colors is carried out before the main task, the children respond with joy and experiment with color. Such an exercise can be carried out on a separate piece of paper, but it is better to have a "cheat sheet" album, where the children will each time do exercises to get acquainted with color and learn various painting techniques.
Materials and tools:
-a sheet of paper A3 (for landscape)
- A4 sheet for color testing (or an album)
-watercolor
-brushes of three numbers (large, medium, thin)
- a simple pencil, an eraser (for the youngest children, they can draw a horizon line)
- glass for water
-cloth for brushes
Master class progress:
I see a land hitherto unknown.
Around the land is well-groomed.beautiful...
But to me, my soul, it is so charming here!
So wide is the beauty of my Russia!
Today we will draw a landscape, for kids a good role is played by showing the future drawing and examining it, what is depicted on it.
The landscape begins at the border of heaven and earth - this is the horizon line, where they meet each other. We draw the horizon line with the tip of the brush, then we begin to paint over the sky from the very top of the sheet in a horizontal direction. I always draw with the kids, a new technique, a new detail of the work and the children repeat this in their drawing.
Brush strokes should be large, smooth, use the largest brush. The paint must be well diluted with water, and try to create an even, uniform background.
Then, from the horizon line, draw the earth, the field (green). Brush after each color must be thoroughly rinsed. We paint over the surface in a horizontal direction, with a large brush, with green color with a large addition of water.
Now we take a brush of medium size, draw it with the tip. Emerald paint color - draw hills, the paint is bright and saturated.
Using a clean brush and water, blur the emerald lines of the hills, from emerald to basic green. So that you get a smooth transition from color to color. The work takes place with the addition of a large amount of water, almost on a damp background (therefore, the work shines). Excess water can be removed by dabbing with a cloth.
We leave the field to dry and return to work on the sky. We collect red paint on the brush and draw a rich stripe above the horizon line.
My brush, with a clean brush with water, draw a line along the lower edge of the red stripe, blur it.
Similarly, add orange and yellow colors.
Now with vertical small strokes we draw blades of grass, the farther they are from us, the smaller.
Then wash the brush, wring it out and lightly smear the blades of grass, as if rubbing them with a brush. We draw a red sun.
Clapping a brush on a sheet, draw shrubs.
On the horizon line, draw a saturated blue line - a forest in the distance. And with a thin brush of a blade of grass in the foreground of the picture.
With a thin brush we make vertical blue lines, where there is a forest, these are trees.
Select the forest in the distance with a thin black line (thin brush), and draw branches on the bushes.
It is best to start drawing with young children with wax crayons, gouache paints. Start small. They leave a bright mark on paper, are easily washed off hands, though they break quickly, but it's not scary.
When getting acquainted with paints, show how to hold a brush, how to rinse it in water. Young children are very fond of drawing with their fingers, they are also happy to draw with a doodle. It will not be difficult to make frogs - wrap a piece of foam rubber on a stick or pencil, fasten the foam rubber with a thread. You can also draw with a sponge, stamps, using stencils.
At 1.5 -2 years old, we teach the baby to draw horizontal and vertical lines, at 2 years old, circles, coloring silhouettes with paints. Classes should be carried out in a playful way, be sure to use visual material, artistic word.
Drawing classes with children 1.5-2 years old
What is it
Target. To teach a child to hold a pencil correctly, to teach to see the image of an object in drawn lines, to develop imagination, interest in drawing.
Prepare a sheet of paper, preferably A4, wax crayons or pencils. Let the kid draw what he wants. When the child has finished drawing, ask him what he has drawn. If he finds it difficult to answer, help him see the image in lines, draw the details to make a fish, a bird, a flower. Admire the drawing with the baby, praise him.
Hide the mouse (kitten, hare)
Purpose: To learn to hold a pencil, to shade images with horizontal and vertical strokes.
This activity can be done several times with different characters. Prepare papers with a drawn (outline) of a mouse or other character in advance. Ask the baby, who is it, how does it squeak? Invite your child to help hide the mouse from the cat. Show how to shade the mouse, make a few strokes while holding his pen in yours. Praise the baby.
Rain
Goal: Learn to draw slanted vertical lines, develop interest in drawing.
On a sheet of paper, draw clouds in advance at the top of the sheet. And below, depict grass, flowers, mushrooms. How does the rain drip? Draw a solid vertical line for heavy rain and a dotted line for light rain. Ask the kid to draw how the rain waters the grass, flowers, mushrooms. Ask what kind of rain he drew: strong or weak?
Don't forget to praise your baby. 
Railway
Prepare a toy train or tram, you can draw and cut out of paper. Consider a train with the baby, figure out where he will go, maybe someone will be lucky (toys, animals, mother). On a sheet of paper, draw two horizontal lines in advance at a distance of 5-6 cm from each other. Tell that the builders forgot to complete the railway and now the train will not be able to drive along it, invite the child to draw (complete) vertical lines, show how. At the end of the lesson, say that everyone who rides the train is very happy about the new railway and is grateful to the kid for his help. 
small fence
Goal: Learn to draw vertical lines, develop interest in drawing.
Draw a house on a sheet of paper. Come up with a story for the kid about who lives in the house: grandparents, a bunny, a girl - at your discretion. Offer to draw a fence near the house. Draw two horizontal lines next to the house at a distance of 5-6 cm from each other, and invite the child to draw vertical sticks-boards. On behalf of the residents of the house, thank the baby for the help. 
Flowers in the meadow
Goal: Learn to draw vertical lines.
Prepare in advance a sheet of paper with a stripe 5-6 cm wide shaded at the bottom - this is a clearing. At a distance of 7-8 cm, draw heads of different colors. Consider the flowers with the baby, tell them what they are called, determine what color they are. Offer to draw stems to them - straight lines from flowers to a clearing.
Similarly, classes are held on drawing balloons, shoulder blades, grass.
Drawing with paints
First, prepare the paint of the same color, because the baby still does not know how to use paints, rinse the brush. It is more convenient to use gouache paints. You can draw with a brush, a doodle (a piece of foam rubber tied to a stick or a pencil), or with your fingers. Show how a wet brush leaves a mark on paper, then admire the mark left by a paint brush. Let the child draw as he wants, he is still interested in the process itself. See what mark the frog, finger will leave. Draw these prints to a certain image: to a flower, a bun, a bird, a fish. Admire the picture together.
Themes for drawing:
Rain. You can draw with a brush - jets of rain, a doodle and a finger - drops of rain.
Snowfall - with a finger and a ball on blue paper.
Leaves on a pre-drawn tree - with a finger and a doodle.
Apples on a pre-drawn silhouette of an apple tree - with a finger and a doodle.
Flowers with a finger, stems with a brush.
Butterfly - painting a pre-cut silhouette with a finger or a doodle.
Closer to 2 years, we learn to draw a circle with a brush. We put a point and draw a ball, as if winding a thread around a ball.
Themes for drawing:
Multicolored balls.
Air balloons.
Chick.
Tumbler.
Snowman.
Stencil drawing
Prepare the stencil in advance. Inside the sheet, cut out a simple silhouette - a mushroom, a Christmas tree, a bunny, an apple. Let the kid paint over it with a brush, a finger, a doodle. To make the stencil durable, cut it out of a piece of linoleum. You can also buy ready-made stencils.
decoy drawing
Pour semolina into the lid of the box so that the sides of the lid are not too high. The child can draw on the semolina with his finger or scratch the drawing with a stick. 
Each session can be done multiple times. More often give the baby the opportunity to draw on his own, what he wants. Let him invent, try, create. Such drawing will help the development of imagination and fantasy. It is important to develop a love for drawing in a little man, for this, admire his scribbles, praise him, do not scold him for dirty things, be patient and you will grow up a real artist.
Technique for teaching children to draw. Pictures to help you learn how to draw objects, animals and people.
- Every mother wants to raise from her baby, at least a talented and successful person. On the way to this dream, women strive to comprehensively develop their crumbs, invest maximum knowledge in them and teach them as many skills and abilities as possible.
- One of these skills is the ability to draw. Many kids, due to the lack of artistic talent in them, are quite upset.
- In this article we will try to figure out how to teach a baby to draw certain things and animated objects.
How to gradually teach a child to draw at 3-4 years old?
Step-by-step learning to draw a baby with a pencil or pen:
- At the age of 3-4 years, the baby still cannot press hard enough on the pencil, so we select soft pencils for him. Such pencils are able to leave marks even after a very slight pressure.
- We demonstrate to the child how to properly hold a pencil in his hand. If the baby is unable to pick up a pencil on his own, we help him with this. Subsequently, we constantly make sure that the baby correctly holds a pen or pencil in his hand
- The first stage of training will be instilling the skill of drawing a smooth and clear line. At this age, kids are still quite uncertain about holding a pencil in their hand. Because their lines are uneven and intermittent. We teach the baby to draw a line confidently and evenly
- It is advisable to purchase a special notebook for tracing pictures for the child. In such notebooks, all drawings are depicted with the help of numerous dots. The baby just needs to connect all the dots with one line. The result is a beautiful drawing.
- At first, we help the baby to trace the pictures, directing his brush with his hand. Later, we give the crumbs to independently connect all the dots on the sheet.
- At the next stage, we teach the baby to draw the simplest geometric shapes - a circle, a square, a rectangle, a triangle, an oval, a trapezoid
- When the baby learns to draw simple figures, we teach him to create drawings from them. For example, with the help of a square and a triangle we draw a house, with the help of a circle and straight lines - the sun, with the help of a rectangle and circles - a bus, etc.
- You can purchase or print children's drawing books from the Internet. In such manuals, various animals and objects familiar to children, created from simple figures, are depicted in stages. Subsequently, the kid himself will learn to break all the objects into shapes and create whole pictures using this technique.
- If by the age of five the baby has already completed the pencil training described above, you can take on the following stages of developing drawing skills
- Now you can expand the possibilities of crumbs' creativity with the help of colored pencils, felt-tip pens and paints. It is necessary to explain to the child that by making a sketch of a drawing with a pencil, he can decorate it
- On a large sheet of paper, the baby can now create entire compositions and interconnected plots.
- An ordinary walk on the street can be a great help for the development of a child’s imagination. You just need to ask the baby to capture pictures that are interesting to him in his memory for later displaying them on a piece of paper. The kid will then very carefully and intently examine the objects around him in order to memorize them. Parents can give their child some tips. To do this, you can ask him leading questions like: “What color is this or that object? What are its dimensions? What is the ratio of the sizes of several objects that the baby liked? What are the objects to the touch, according to the crumbs?
- All this will help the child to imprint interesting moments in his memory as best as possible, and then express them on paper.
- Upon arrival home from a walk, it is advisable to give the crumbs all the objects necessary for drawing without further delay and provide him with a place convenient for creativity.
- If the baby suddenly has some questions, you must definitely help him find the answers to them.
- Parents themselves can ask the crumbs questions about what he intends to portray. You can ask how the child feels, trying to draw what he saw earlier.
- In such classes, you can give the baby the right to express their emotions and show them through the drawing. For example, you can ask the baby to draw his favorite animal in different moods. That is, the task of the child is to show how the dog laughs, how angry she is, how she is afraid of something. Such lessons will develop the kid's imagination and at the same time express the state of his psyche.
How to teach to draw a tree?
How to learn to draw a tree? - Any tree always consists of a trunk, branches and greenery.
- You need to start drawing a tree from the trunk. It is worth noting that the tree trunk expands from top to bottom. In other words, the base of the tree is thicker at the bottom and narrower towards the top.
- The same applies to the branches of a tree - at the base they are thicker, and by their end they become narrower.
- The thickness of the trunk depends on the type of tree. If you want to draw a birch, then the trunk should be thin with bends, if you want to draw an oak, then the trunk should be thick and massive
- After the trunk is drawn, it is necessary to cover it with branches. As a rule, the branches of a tree do not start from the root, but from a quarter of its height. The lower branches are usually depicted wider than the upper ones.
- The direction of the branches is always up - they seem to stretch towards the sun
- On large branches, you can draw smaller branches
- The crown can be drawn with a solid mass using paints, or it can be drawn with a pencil in the form of individual leaves
- When all the elements of the tree are drawn, it remains only to paint over it. To depict a tree, at least two colors are required: the trunk and branches are brown or black, the crown is green
How to draw animals?
As mentioned above, for ease of drawing animals, their body must be visually divided into simple geometric shapes. Having drawn each of the figures in turn, you need to connect them with smooth lines. This is how animals are made.
Machine drawing
How to teach a child to draw a person? It would seem that drawing a person is very difficult. However, if you follow a certain scheme, then even a preschool kid can cope with this task. So, the phased drawing of a person:
- We draw an oval. The oval will later become a human head
- Under the oval, draw a rectangle that will act as the upper part of the human body (up to the waist)
- We connect the oval and the rectangle with two smooth lines. Thus we draw the neck
- Right next to the rectangle, draw a second rectangle. Its width should be equal to the width of the first rectangle, but along the length it will be somewhat more oblong
- The second rectangle is divided in half by a line passing exactly in the center from top to bottom. This line will help us create some kind of legs.
- Along the first rectangle, draw one more thin rectangle. This is how we draw the hands
- Smooth the upper part of the rectangles with a smooth line - these will be the shoulders
- Now we depict the neck of the sweater, the triangle on the pants, shoes and hands. All extra lines must be erased with an eraser
