Start by drawing lightly so you can erase later.
BEGINNING
Start by drawing lightly so you can erase later.
The body is like an oval or a teardrop shape upside down with a slight tilt to the left at the bottom.
Use two lines to position the tail feathers. They taper to a rounded point at the bottom.
Use two lines to form the beginning of the wing. These lines are shaped like the letter "U."
The basic shape of the head and beak are like two triangles, one pointing forward and down and one pointing backward and up.
The eye is in the middle; draw it first, and use it as a reference to outline the black mask around it.
The feet are only pairs of short straight lines around the branch.
Use guidelines to keep the layers of feathers straight.
Erase the extra lines and add details like feathers. Use short, thin lines to give the feathers a soft look around the chest and waist. Use long lines for the feathers on the wing and tail.
If you work in color, this can be a beautiful picture; use red for the bird. Put blues and greens in the background.
I hope you draw a masterpiece.
