Materials:
- 1 sheet of 8 ½ ” x 11” White Paper or Larger
- Pencil
- Markers
- Paint (Watercolor, Acrylics), Crayons or Pastels
- Paint Brush
Directions:
- Place your paper in portrait position (vertically). Draw a shape that looks like a football, leave the bottom of the "football" open. Draw a circle at the top of the "football" then a smaller circle within the circle (this is the nose cone)
- Close the bottom of the "football" with two narrow rectangle shapes. You now have the beginnings of a rocket
- Create teardrop shapes at the bottom of the "rocket" these are the hot gases/flames. Now create the rocket's fins on the left and right
- Draw any additional details on your rocket that you would like
- Draw stars in the atmosphere/background, use a small plate or circular item to draw a half circle in the upper right corner of your paper, this is the moon
- Now it's time to paint/color. Use a yellow crayon or pastel to fill in your stars and portions of the hot gases/flames. Use a gray crayon to trace the moon and create craters
- Paint the atmosphere/background in with black and purple paint. Use orange and red paint for the hot gases/flames. Paint your rocket's nose cone and fins in whatever color you would like, we chose red. Paint/color the other details of your rocket how you would like
- Finish by tracing all pencil lines with a black marker
- Bonus, if you have silver or gold glitter, use a glue stick in the background and dust with a little glitter
