Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
/ed with a circle. This will form the parrot’s head
Step 2
Next, outline the parrot’s body. First, extend a curved line downward from the head. Round the line – imagine it forming a complete circle if it were to continue. This forms the parrot’s belly. Then, from the opposite side of the circle, extend a long, curved line. This outlines the parrot’s back and tail. Finally, connect the lines using a third curved line, enclosing the parrot’s tail
Step 3
Erase the guide lines separating the parrot’s head and body.
Step 4
Using a curved line, enclose a rounded shape on the front of the parrot’s head. This will complete the shape of the head. Then, use two curved lines to enclose a large, upside down teardrop shape along the back of the bird’s body. This outlines the wing.
Step 5
At the front of the head, use three short, curved lines to enclose a curved triangle overlapping the face. This is the parrot’s beak. Enclose a half circle beneath the beak, using a short, curved line. This forms the beak’s lower jaw.
Step 6
Draw several rows of wavy lines across the bird’s wing, using connected, “U” shaped lines to form each layer. Do the same at the top of the tail. At the tip of the wing and tail, draw vertical curved lines, indicating flight feathers (learn how to draw a feather).
Step 7
Erase guide lines from the bird’s face.
Step 8
Draw a set of bumpy, wavy, parallel lines across the front of the bird, passing near the base of the tail. This forms the tree branch on which the bird is perched. Then, draw a few small protrusions from the branch. Erase guide lines as necessary.
Step 9
Add detail to your parrot. Enclose a few small triangles on top of the head to indicate a tuft of feathers. Draw an oval within an oval to form the eye. Draw a small circle within the smaller oval, and shade around it. Draw a thick, curved line at the corner of the eye to indicate eyelashes, and a curved line above to form the eyebrow. Use sets of curved lines, connected on each end at gentle points, to form the feet. Erase guide lines as necessary. Add feathery detail to the bird’s chest using “V” shaped areas of short, curved lines
