Drawing a cheerful blue bird

Birds
Hi little artist! Today we are going to draw a beautiful blue bird sitting cozily on a branch. Grab your pencil and paper, because we are going to work together. With simple shapes, you'll conjure up a sweet little bird on your paper in no time!
1
Basic shapes of a bird: a circle and an oval with a guide line.
Draw a small circle for the head and a larger oval for the body, with a short line for the beak.
2
The bird's neck and a branch are added to the sketch.
Connect the head to the body with two lines for the neck and sketch a thick branch under the bird.
3
Lines for the tail, wings, and legs of the blue bird.
Draw a long diagonal line upwards for the tail and place guide lines for the wings and legs.
4
The beak, wings, and legs get more shape on the paper.
Make the beak a bit thicker and give the wings and legs their first real shape.
5
Adding an eye and a wide tail to the bird drawing.
Draw a small round eye in the head and make the tail wider with two long lines.
6
Details of the feet on the branch and feathers in the wings.
Give the bird small toes to hold onto the branch and draw extra lines in the wings.
7
Small details like claws and feathers are drawn everywhere.
Draw small claws on the toes and add soft lines everywhere for the feathers.
8
The finished drawing of a blue bird on a branch.
Make the outer lines darker, erase the guide lines, and color your bird beautifully blue!
