Conclusionĭrawing a cartoon looking bird like the one in this tutorial is fairly easy and can be quite fun. In the example we will go with blue and yellow along with some orange (for the beak/feet). You can color the bird with paints, colored pencils or markers and use whatever color combination you like. Once you have your bird looking the way you want you can go over your drawing with either darker pencil lines, a back pen or a marker. Finally you can also draw a several curves around the neck area to again show some more feathers. Afterwards you can add some patterns to the wings with a few sets of curved lines. In this case you can first add a little “mohawk” at the top of the head drawn in little pointy clumps. Once you know the basics - the recipe - it may surprise you how simple it is.
#Bird simple drawing how to
To make the bird look a little more interesting add some feathers. To learn some simple bird drawings is in fact very easy and I’ll show you here how to do it. Step 8 – Draw the Feathers Bird line drawing To one side of each of the irises also draw a small oval highlight. Inside the eyes draw the irises with pretty much the same shapes (but smaller) as the outlines. Start with their outline shapes that look like ovals with their bottoms cut off by curved lines. In the middle of the head slightly above where it goes into the body draw the beak with it’s outer shape similar to a lemon. In this case it will be drawn splitting into two smaller branches towards one side to make it look a little more interesting. Step 5 – Draw the Branch Bird branch drawing This will make it look a little bit more like they are gripping something. You can also make the toes point slightly in the direction of one another toward the bottom. You can draw each toe as a sort of “mini sausage” like shape. Step 4 – Draw the Feet Bird feet drawingĪt the bottom of the body draw the feet (really just the toes). Make it slightly wider towards the tip with a few curves on the end to show the feathers. However, if you are worried about making a mistake then simply darkening your lines with the pencil may be a better option. Afterwards erase the parts of the body outline that are covered by them. Onto the body starting from just a tiny bit below where it transitions into the head draw the wings with their bottom tips pointing slightly away from the main shape of the bird. Step 2 – Draw the Wings Bird wings drawing You can draw the head with pretty much one big curve and the body with a “water drop” like shape. Start by drawing the outline of the birds head and body as in the example above. Step 1 – Draw the Bird’s Body Bird body drawing Start the tutorial with a pencil and make light lines that you can easy erase as you will need to do so in some of the steps. It includes simple step by step drawing examples and quick explanations. This tutorial shows how to draw a cartoon bird sitting on a branch.
