You can now start sketching out the birds body and head like you see here. Since the wings are close the body, your cute critter will look a little plump. Add some feathery shapes for the wings and head, and then move to the next step.

Description: Well, I can honestly say that there is a lot of work ahead of me today and it's mainly because I am one hundred percent swamped. Today I will start by submitting some of the easy tutorials because the younger audience that comes here has to be in bed by a certain time. The more advanced lessons will be uploaded a little later. Lets start by adding a drawing to the “cute” series. I'm going to show you “how to draw a bird”, step by step, using easy to follow steps and instructions. I know I have plenty tutorials on all different types of birds, but those can be a bit more complicated to tackle because most of them fall in the intermediate category. That is why I like this sketch, it's easy to draw, it's wicked cute, and very colorful. You will have a blast drawing a cute bird because when you're done, you can color in the animal any shade you like to turn your drawing into a blue-jay, red robin, or even a dove or sparrow. Well, I think I said enough for this tutorial description. I will leave you all to awe over the cuteness, and draw out the tree dwelling creature for yourself. Peace out people and have a happy, drawing day!
