Introduction: Drawing Birds

This book will teach you how to begin drawing birds and it contains several examples to follow. The steps are designed in a way that can be applied to either digital drawing (drawing on a tablet) or traditionally (drawing on a paper). Although this book is for drawing birds, the process of creating the figures and applying colors in them can be applied on any other things you would like to draw. During the process, you will learn how to use different lines and how to apply different color tones to your drawing instead of simply filling them with one color tone. The tutorial will begin with an easy example carefully explained, and then gradually increase in difficulty along the way.

Begin with creating a base for an easily proportionate form of your birds, next is the inking process and then coloring. Learn how to apply simple details without the confusion of what to do next.

The book also includes a small bit of information about the birds given as examples. This will help you familiarize yourself with different kinds of birds, while learning how to draw them.
