Drawing a beautiful swan step-by-step

Birds
Today we are going to draw a beautiful swan floating peacefully in the water. Swans look very dignified with their long necks, but they are actually very easy to create. We start with simple shapes like circles and ovals. Follow the steps and before you know it, you'll have a real royal bird on paper!
1
Drawing of a small circle and a large oval as the base for a swan.
Draw a small circle for the head and a large horizontal oval for the swan's body.
2
Two curved lines connecting the head and the body of the swan.
Connect the head and the body with two graceful, curved lines to create the long neck.
3
A curved line on the swan's back shaping the wing.
Sketch a large arc on the swan's back to indicate the top of the wings.
4
Small guide lines under the oval for the position of the legs.
Draw two short lines under the body for the bird's legs.
5
Thicker shapes for the legs and a clear shape for the wing.
Make the legs a bit thicker by drawing shapes around them and give the wing a point.
6
Drawing of wide legs with webbed feet at the bottom of the swan.
Now draw the large webbed feet at the bottom of the legs.
7
Give the swan a beak and a small round eye in the head.
8
Draw long lines in the wings to show the swan's beautiful feathers.
9
Make the outlines extra neat, erase the guide lines, and draw some grass near the swan.
