Drawing a pigeon in 8 simple steps

Birds
Hello little artist! Today we are going to draw a bird that you have probably seen in the square: the pigeon. Grab your pencil and eraser, because we are going to work step by step. It's easier than you think!
1
Basic shapes of a pigeon: a small circle and a large oval.
Draw a small circle for the head and a large horizontal oval for the body of the pigeon.
2
Drawing the neck and the guide line for the pigeon's tail.
Connect the head and the body with two curved lines for the neck and draw a long line for the tail.
3
Guide lines for the beak and the legs of the bird.
Make a small mark for the beak and draw short lines under the body where the legs should go.
4
Sketching the wing and the beak of the pigeon.
Create the shape of the wing on the side of the body and give the beak more shape.
5
Shaping the legs and the tail of the pigeon.
Finish drawing the legs and make the tail wider with straight lines.
6
Adding details such as the eye and the toes of the pigeon.
Draw a small round eye in the head and add small toes to the legs.
7
Refining the details of the feathers and the legs.
Now draw the feathers on the wing and make the lines of the bird a bit neater all over.
8
The completed drawing of a pigeon without guide lines.
Erase the guide lines and color your pigeon beautifully with gray, blue, and a bit of purple in the neck.
