How to draw the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China. It is usually celebrated on August 15th of the lunar calendar (mid-September of the Gregorian calendar). On this day, people will enjoy the moon, eat moon cakes and enjoy lanterns together. Here are some common Mid-Autumn Festival pictures for your reference:

1. Draw the moon: draw a circle with compasses or freehand, then fill it with light blue or light yellow pigment, and finally outline the shadow and texture of the moon with dark gray or dark yellow at the center of the circle.

2. Draw lanterns: Draw the shape of lanterns on white paper with a pencil, then fill the internal patterns with colored pens or pigments, and finally outline the lines and details with a black pen.

3. Draw moon cakes: Draw a circle with a pencil, and then draw the filling of moon cakes at the center, such as lotus seed paste and red bean paste. Then fill the moon cakes with red, yellow and green pigments, and finally outline the lines and details with a black pen.

4. Draw the Moon Man: Draw the outline of the character with a pencil, and then fill the skin, clothes and accessories of the character with pigments such as skin color, black and red. Finally, add the moon and background to the picture.

No matter which painting method you choose, you can improve and innovate according to your own preferences and creativity. I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
