Draw Camouflage
Camouflage is a design or pattern with the purpose to disguise or hide. This is exactly why hunters wear "camo" gear when they go hunting. There are many types of camouflage worn, but there are also many ways that camouflage is a part of the art world. Use the following steps to learn draw camouflage in a variety of ways.
Instructions
Draw Basic Camouflage
1. Set your color scheme for the type of camouflage you want to draw. There are usually three colors in a camouflage pattern. Black, tan and green would be one trio of colors. Another color group may be all shades of green with dark green, leaf green and light green. There are even color schemes for fun and style, like white, black and pink or red. You would not want to wear that last one in the woods hunting, but it's fun to wear to the mall.
2. Create your camouflage pattern. Your deepest color can serve as your background and use the other two to make unusual shapes that seem to float around, sometimes even overlapping a bit. Use a pattern that is a vertical slant with jagged lines with your camouflage color scheme worked in.
3. Rearrange your colors if you do not like the look you've created. Put the medium tint color as the background and use the other two colors for your shapes. There is not a set rule on camouflage. It is actually supposed to be not of a consistent order.
Draw Camouflage in Artwork
4. Hide a picture within a picture using a camouflage in your artwork. Camouflage a gray, white and black bunny into a geometrically designed art piece, using the same colors of gray, white and black. It will appear as a puzzle for your eyes.
5. Plan out your color scheme carefully if you are drawing art with the intention of camouflaging. Flowers hiding same-colored insects can be intriguing. This style of artwork "hides" one image within another image, just as the traditional camouflage colors hide or blend in with nature.
6. Work at becoming a master at camouflage art by hiding an image within an image within yet another image.
