Children can make a decorative panel of living leaves as an original gift for Teacher’s Day. About this in an interview with NEWS.ru told the artist Natalia Sukhanova.
According to her, the palette for the composition should be peeked right outside the window. The artist noted that yellow maple, red ash and brown oak are already combined with each other, so it is almost impossible to make a mistake with the color. For the basis, it is better to take a dense cardboard of light color or plywood, since an ordinary sheet of paper will bend under glue and natural materials.
“If you want to add real leaves, put them in a thick book for about a week. Under the press, they dry evenly and do not crumble when glued, the specialist advised. From the prepared material, you can collect a bouquet, a tree crown or a flock of birds, finishing the branches and a vase. A good story will be the “tree of knowledge”.
Natalia Sukhanova suggested using thin twigs for the trunk, and the crown was made of maple leaves, birch and oak. On individual elements, you can write the words “kindness”, “patience” or “inspiration”. The artist stressed that the background is better to pour watercolor in advance and let it dry, and use PVA glue for fastening.
To paint a picture with a school alley, it is recommended to start with the sky and distant trees, leaving large leaves and foreground at the end. Front objects should be written in rich color, and distant ones should be bleached to create depth. Beginners are more comfortable to work with gouache, as the error is easy to close with a new layer.
The expert also advised to map out a place for writing with a pencil in advance. It's better to make up your own congratulations. Specific phrases about lessons or fun events in the classroom remain in the memory for a long time.
