Outer space is full of diverse and amazing artwork subjects. So, I have gathered many of them in this list of easy outer space drawing ideas with practical examples for your help. Whether it be the planets, meteoroids, rockets, satellites, or anything else, there will be cute, colorful and easy depictions of all.
You will also find some unique and strange symbolic topics that are even more fun to draw. So, if you are a fan of the best outer space drawing, keep reading!
Scientific searches have introduced us to a number of new celestial scenes that we could not even imagine. Now, we are not limited to the moon, stars and dark space.
That's why among these simple outer space drawing ideas, it was necessary to add illustrations of space technology for educational purposes along with fun.
Drawing these scenes and objects will be much fun. So, if you are ready for it, let's get started.
Saturn Drawing
Saturn's unique look (mostly the ring!) inspired me to display it first, and it looked impressive.
Just start with a circle, add the three tilted oval rings around (each larger than the other!) and color in each in your favorite shades.
It will hang proudly in the little telescopist's room.
Tip: Never pass the rings over the circle. If you do, saturn rings will not have a 3D look. Intsead show a part of rings hidden behind planet.
Heart Planet
Earth is our lovely planet, and I found this drawing a great way to symbolize that.
Draw a big heart outline and another little heart inside it. To distinguish each, color the red in the big heart and add the ocean and land details. Then color it, too.
You can display it as an Earth Day portrait. This drawing is perfect for a person who has a big place for earth in his heart.
Tip: You can draw any irregular shapes for the continents of earth.
Astronaut
It is a very basic drawing of a kid wearing an astronaut suit that you can complete in minutes. For those ambitious kids who dream bigger, this drawing will be a memorial of their determination.
- Start with a bulky lower body to look as if someone is wearing the suit.
- Add the space suit details like space agency tag, arm and shoe straps, shoe details and lines that separate the gloves from the body.
- Draw a line in the center extending from the neck to the leg height that will make it look like a jumpsuit.
- Now, draw the helmet by making a big circle. Then make another small inside it and draw a childish face here. Your drawing is complete after coloring.
You can make this drawing to attach to an astronomy book.
Cat in Outer Space
In remembrance of Felictte (the first cat to space!), while having some fun, this cat-to-space drawing is not a bad idea. Our cat will look as if it is flying in front of an unknown planet. It is an easy drawing to learn some fun cat poses.
You can tribute this drawing to your pet.
Planets
Solar system planets are all similar to draw (except Saturn!), but you have to focus on different relevant textures, sizes and colors to separate them. Here in this drawing, we shall illustrate all our lovely planets along with some unknown ones.
It will be a puzzle activity in which you ask kids to identify a planet according to appearance by telling its name. When mixed with unknown ones, the game will become a little difficult.
So, I love to categorize this as an educational sketch.
Rocket Ship
Rockets made it possible to travel through outer space, and artists found a lot of new subjects to draw. That's why you should not miss this cute rocket drawing that is expelling the air and flying. I call such drawings "motion sketches," and it is a great way to learn one of its examples.
This drawing gives a comprehensive knowledge of the workings of rockets, which is great for science presentations.
Meteor
A burning meteoroid scene (when it enters the earth's atmosphere!), like in this drawing, is very fun and easy to redraw.
Start with an inverted triangle, one of the corners facing a downward angle - meteoroid. Then add some long and spreading fire behind it -now it is a meteor. Use orange and yellow colors for fire and black for Metroid.
This drawing will help you to remember this process quickly.
Dino Astronaut
Dino astronaut is such a funny but creative drawing idea. For this, we shall draw a similar astronaut suit and then add the dino details like its hands and feet that poop out and face in the helmet.
This drawing will make you smile and impress your classmates.
Space Shuttle
This drawing displays a space shuttle, which is a kind of spacecraft that can travel to and from outer space.
The main part of the shuttle is like a long, slender airplane with wings. At the back, there are powerful burning engines. You can draw each part in minutes.
Satellite
This drawing is a basic portrait of the Hubble telescope satellite that is so basic but cute. This drawing is another great gift for a bit of a telescopist. It reminds the great achievement of this telescope.
