Windy Day Drawing

Drawing a windy day may sound tricky, until you realize you can just focus on what the wind does, not the actual wind itself. The wind pushes things in whatever direction it is going, so all that means is things needs to be leaning in the same direction, showing the effect of the wind.This tutorial takes that idea and has a little fun with it by showing what it might look like for someone to be flying across the sky, holding a colorful umbrella. Students can imagine what it might feel like to be looking down from the tree tops on a pretty windy day.The key to getting the windy look, is to have the umbrella and the body drawn at the same angle. This tutorial shows how to start by getting that umbrella at an angle, and a handle and body that lines up with it.This body is kept intentionally simple so students can easily turn it into a boy or a girl, and customize the clothes as they wish.Scroll down below to see how a kindergartener made one of my all-time favorite paintings of this, quite a few years ago. I sure hope Veronica is still drawing.

1. I am not a teacher, I’m just a mom who likes art and crafts. I volunteer my in 1st grade twins’ class for “Fun Art Friday” once a month. I did this project on a blustery winter day in January. I was worried using water colors, but I think they turned out super cute!! Wish I could post pics for you to see. Thanks for the cute idea!
