There should be a lot of leaves.
The teacher shows how to draw leaves.
Get to work.

The wind is getting quieter and quieter,
(lower your hands smoothly)
The tree is getting higher and higher.
(raise your hands and stretch upward)
Educator
: And now we’ll make an exhibition from your drawings and we’ll have an autumn forest.
The teacher hangs the children's drawings on the board
.
Drawing with pencils for children from 3 years old
The next work will be no worse than the previous one, but we will do it with the help of colored pencils. A set in a box will definitely be found in every home or in the nearest stationery store. They are easy to use and are recommended for inexperienced toddlers to start their creative activities with. Let's depict a stunning autumn forest on canvas.
Be sure to take your child to this park; he will probably be happy to swim in the fallen leaves. In the meantime, let’s take a walk in his painted version, believe me, it’s even better, because we’ll make it!
We draw an autumn forest in stages:
- A wave extending beyond the boundaries of the canvas denotes mounds. We duplicate it a little lower, expressing the foreground.
- We place three triangular trunks at the same distance. Try to express them as similar to each other as possible.
- We put caps of crowns on the elements, somewhat reminiscent of fluffy clouds.
- We shade the characters from left to right in orange, red, yellow tones. Let the fidget do this completely independently.
- We fill the first wave with a reddish pigment, and decorate the part in the foreground with a bright yellow pencil.
- Fill the trunks with brown and shade the background with blue pigment. We make quick diagonal movements, bypassing the drawn composition.
- Using a contrasting color scheme, we highlight the foliage with dots and the blades of grass with stripes. Let's mark a couple of black birds in the corner with ticks.
The autumn landscape is ready, it is perfect for a competition or a thematic exhibition. And what’s more, it will take away all the awards and sympathy from the audience.
Another lesson on how to simply draw an autumn tree:
Examples of drawings on the theme of autumn for a child to draw for school
All manuals recommend that young artists sketch pictures at first. This will allow you to sharpen your hand and develop a creative eye. By repeating an endless number of works, you will soon be able to create them yourself! Your hands will create magic and your brain will generate great ideas. In the following selection you will find options for children's images using different techniques. Go for it!
- Three autumn trees against the background of a river: a colorful version of the picture
- A lonely tree on a yellow background is suitable even for the smallest children:
- Trees in yellow and red on a green hill:
- Cute hedgehog with apples: drawing for kindergarten
- Bench in the autumn park:
- Another idea for a drawing on the theme of autumn for the junior or middle group of a kindergarten: this option can be depicted by simply dipping your fingers in different colors, the children will simply be delighted!
- Girl in the autumn forest
- Forest mushrooms:
- Autumn road:
- An interesting idea for drawing a sparrow in yellow tones:
You can also draw a bullfinch; older children will definitely love this idea.
- Squirrel on a stump:
Autumn can also be painted with acrylic, here is a video master class on this topic:
Drawing on the theme of autumn in pencil
Drawing with a pencil is very simple. Can be used:
- drawing technique (look at the original and repeat every stroke exactly),
- or simply retake the image and transfer it to your own sheet of paper (this is when a blank sheet of paper is superimposed on the picture and drawn with a pencil along the contours and individual details of the image),
- a pencil allows you to convey shadow and light, volume and texture of an object (due to shading).
Well, if something doesn’t work out, you can easily fix it with an eraser.
Pencil drawings can be monochrome or color. How can a simple pencil convey the gold of autumn leaf fall, the crimson of sunset and the aroma of fallen leaves? Easily! If you use pictures typical of autumn, your memory will “complete the picture” itself. For example, a heap of leaves depicted on paper that lies under a tree will remind you how great it is to toss these leaves, how they quietly fall and spin, and how they rustle under your feet when you walk on them.
See examples of drawings for sketching in the gallery:
For reference! A pencil drawing is a work done by:
- with a simple pencil;
- a set of colored pencils;
- one of the colored pencils.
The children themselves can choose how it is convenient for them to draw autumn, and what colors will convey what they see.

1. First, draw a sketch with a simple pencil. For example, an alley in a park, on the sides of which trees appear one after another. A person can walk along the alley under an umbrella.
2. Draw the contours with a felt-tip pen. We erase the pencil.
3. Color with colored pencils, shading or pastels. First we paint the crowns yellow.
4. Then shade one side with light brown.
5. Here and there we apply green spots on the bushes and on the ground. All that remains is to color the silhouette of the girl.
Video on how to draw a drawing of “autumn colors” for sketching
For those who like to draw pictures, there is a special section in this selection of autumn pictures. In fact, it is not so easy to copy a landscape from a ready-made sample. Here you need to consider:
- every detail
- sizes of individual items,
- the scale of the whole picture,
- naturalness.
In addition, the choice of color is at your discretion. Therefore, pictures copied from the sample can be safely considered independent works. It is you who bring the landscape to life, showing how brightly the sun shines, how the wind “walks” and how the foliage rustles.
It is worth paying special attention to the selection of colors for the design of the work, the name of which speaks for itself: “autumn colors.” Autumn is diverse, you can’t count the colors and shades in which the sky, bushes, trees and withered grass are painted. The entire color palette can fit on one sheet of paper when it comes to fall colors.
Idea #8
A very unusual picture can be made using foil. Place the dried leaf (or several) on a sheet of cardboard, veins up. Cover it with thin foil and carefully, so as not to tear it, smooth it with your fingers so that the design appears. Cover the foil with dark paint (you can use gouache, acrylic, tempera, ink) and let it dry well. Rub the painting very gently with a stiff dishwashing sponge. The protruding veins of the leaf will shine, and dark paint will remain in the recesses. Now you can frame your work!
Idea No. 3
Paint is applied to the sheet from the vein side. Then the sheet is applied to the paper and an imprint is made. The effect will be different depending on what paint you use.
You can come up with many compositional solutions: the imprint of a large leaf can become the crown of a tree if you complete the trunk; A few prints are already a whole forest!
Prints made with white paint on a colored background look impressive. You can combine several techniques and complete the images with pencils or felt-tip pens.
Drawing on the theme of golden autumn with colors
When it comes to golden autumn, the first thing that comes to mind is yellow with its variety of shades, from sand and lemon to the color of ripe tangerine. But this is not entirely true. And just as gold glitters and shimmers with all the colors of the rainbow when a ray of sun hits it, so the golden season can be not only yellow, but also red, and orange, and bright blue, and deep green. All these colors should form the basis of the work about the foliage shimmering in the last warm rays of the sun.
What will help make the drawing even brighter? Paints! They are the ones who are able to color a picture so as to accurately convey the beauty of autumn days. The paints produce richer colors and are easy to mix and match.
I offer a simple and very beautiful work on the theme “Golden Autumn”.

Materials and tools:
- Acrylic or gouache
- Paper – watercolor or any thick sheet
- Brushes
- Sponge
Stages of work:
1. Using a large brush, pick up thick white paint and draw a circle. We take a little blue with some water and apply it along the edges, mixing a little with white. We continue to draw a circle, expanding it.
2. We should get a circle with darker edges and a light circle in the center. To do this, take blue, without mixing with white, and apply further, moving away from the white center. The blue blends smoothly into the blue to create a beautiful gradient.
3. Draw a horizon line - about ¼ of the sheet. We paint over everything above in a circle.
4. Using horizontal strokes, apply dark blue to the bottom of the sheet.
5. Apply horizontal strokes of yellow color in the center. It mixes a little with blue, turning out greenish.
6. Apply white on top of the yellow with light horizontal touches, going down to the bottom of the sheet.
7. Using a thin brush and liquid black paint, draw a tree trunk from the horizon line. We draw with curved thin lines. Do not forget that the tree itself and each branch are always thicker at the base and thinner towards its tip.
At the base we draw roots going into the ground.
8. Tear off a piece of sponge, pick up rich red, mixing it a little with yellow. By applying a sponge and sharply tearing it off, we apply paint. We set the trajectory as if the leaves are twisting around the moon.
9. Apply foliage to all branches with a sponge. We also apply fallen leaves on the sides below.
Now take a lighter color with a sponge and apply it on top of the red along the edge. In some places we leave a dark red color.
10. Take an even lighter, almost white one and make prints on top.
11. Using a brush, turn the tip of the curled ponytail into a moon.
12. Chaotically apply thick paint and a brush to the falling leaves.
13. The final touch is the stars. Apply semi-liquid white to the brush and splash the paint from the brush onto the drawing with your finger.
14. On the water below we enhance the white strokes - the reflection of the moon.
Easy autumn drawings for kindergarten
Drawing is a favorite pastime of even the smallest toddlers. Yes, sometimes it is difficult for children to clearly draw something specific. They lack experience and confidence. That is why this section presents works that are understandable to children. These pictures are easy to repeat. They don't have a lot of small details that toddlers usually miss.
You can use various tools to make leaf prints: corks, paper tubes, toothbrushes, kitchen sponge, cotton swabs, palms, real leaves. Kids love making prints.
The main theme of these drawings is autumn. And to highlight the beauty of this time of year, kids are invited to get acquainted with the bright palette of autumn colors. Children will also appreciate the fact that autumn allows freedom of choice of colors:
- Green;
- Yellow;

6. Mix white, a little brown and blue. We get light gray and draw a birch trunk.
7. Now we apply pure yellow spots to the crown.
8. If desired, draw clouds.
9. Use brown and blue to make stripes on the birch trunk.
How to draw an autumn landscape for children
What is landscape? In fact, the landscape is not just the nature outside the window. Have you seen how artists are looking for exactly that piece of nature that they will paint on canvas? They should like the view, the angle, and the lighting. Sometimes the character of nature is reflected in the most inconspicuous picture. And this suggests that the artist saw beauty and was able to convey it in all details, color and light.
How can children master this science? Very simple. You need to show your child a couple of pictures of a beautiful autumn landscape and tell him what makes this picture special. For example:
- In one picture there is a tree strewn with golden foliage. Although the artist painted the leaves as a “cloud,” he highlighted several individual leaves as an accent and drew every detail on them.
- On the other there is a river, which is visible from a high hill, already covered with yellow-brown-green foliage. And it is the shine of the river, and the way heavy autumn clouds are reflected in it, that makes the landscape special.
- And on the third everything is simple: trees, bushes, grass. And only how low the sun is and how it sparkles like sunbeams in the tree branches decorates the landscape.
Kids quickly grasp such details. A little training and they will succeed!

I offer a simple option for children. You will need:
- Brushes
- Paints
- Wet wipes
- Plastic bag
1. We make the background with watercolors. Using a large brush, apply transparent yellow, blue, a little red, apply randomly.
2. Take a damp cloth and smear the paint stains, while the cloth absorbs excess water.
3. On a separate sheet of paper, apply random spots of gouache paint. We make them with the touch of a large brush.
4. Apply clean water to the bottom of the sheet. We turn it over and apply our blank of paint stains to the wet part of the sheet, smoothing it with our hands. And we remove the leaf.
5. If you shoot by the top edge in the middle, you will get a static forest, and if you shoot by the uppermost corner, you will get the effect of wind in the forest.
6. It remains to draw the tree trunks. We do this in two shades of brown to make the picture more voluminous.
7. Let's draw rain. Take a wide brush and remove excess water from it. We put white gouache on the tip and apply strokes with diagonal light movements.
8. Using a thin brush and dark gouache we depict a key of birds that fly away to the south.
9. We put a simple plastic bag on our hand and apply gouache on the bag in spots. Let's crumple the bag a little in our hand.
Now we apply this package in different places of our trees with sharp jerky movements. This is how we get leaves. The forest becomes more alive.
Autumn pictures for school with paints: a step-by-step master class on painting with gouache
If you successfully completed the previous illustration, then working with paints will definitely not scare you. This material is thicker and more saturated, allowing you to achieve bright and natural transitions. You don't need a large package of gouache, because we only use autumn colors.
Brew some warm tea, turn on some nice music and create masterpieces with us on the theme of the golden season. Your efforts will be rewarded at school according to your merits; you will definitely be one hundred percent prepared for the fine arts lesson!
Now we will figure out how to paint an autumn tree branch step by step:
- Fill the entire canvas with bright yellow pigment. We put an orange tone on the brush and outline a circle in the center, making strokes in a rounded shape.
- We fill all the edges and corners with a scarlet palette, slowly mixing it into the already drawn tints. We leave the most intense accent in the middle, so we get a huge sun.
- We draw a bending branch; it should not be a completely straight segment. It has thin knots and uneven branches. This is the natural beauty of nature!
- Using single strokes of orange and scarlet gouache, we mark the remaining leaves on the branches.
- We mark each element with black spots, make sure that they are slightly blurred. So, we will highlight the depth and volume of individual zones.
- We also work on the sky and clouds from above in the same range. We make soft dipping movements to get similar colorful clouds.
The canvas simply screams and bursts with color, it looks extremely impressive and will amaze all spectators and observers on the spot!
