Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Start by drawing two curved lines, roughly enclosing an oval. These lines will form the peacock’s head.
Step 2
Draw a curved, upside-down triangle to form the top of the beak. Draw a nostril on the beak with a short curved line and enclose the lower part of the beak with a curved line.
Step 3
Extend a long curve and a short curve from the top, outlining the gracefully curved neck.
Step 4
Draw a long curved line from the neck. At the end of the line, draw the feather using connected “U” shaped lines. Add more feathers to the bird’s back using “U” shaped lines of various sizes.
Step 5
Draw a long, upside-down “U” shaped line to outline the section near the wing. Enclose the shape of the wing using “U” shaped lines that are joined to form the feathers.
Step 6
Add feather detail all over the bird’s body and neck using small “U” shaped lines. Allows some lines to connect to others.
Step 7
Draw more feathers on the near wings using joined “U” shaped lines.
Step 8
Start outlining the peacock’s long, flowing tail. Extend two sets of curves, connected of different lengths, allowing the lines to meet at jagged points. Between these lines, extend curved lines of different lengths from the bird’s body.
Step 9
Continue a series of connected curves on each side. Detail the interior of the tail with curves of different lengths.
Step 10
Continue the lines of the tail with curved, connected lines that meet at jagged points. Allows lines to converge at a point, with tails attached.
Step 11
Draw some ovals near the base of the tail. They outline the peacock’s eye spots. Add a few curves for the texture.
Step 12
Continue to draw oval eye spots in the middle of the tail.
Step 13
Add additional oval eye spots until the entire tail is filled with these spots.
Step 14
In each eye point, draw a circle. Within each circle, draw a rounded “W” shaped line.
Step 15
Draw the far wing with a curved line. Add some flying feathers to its head using “U” shaped lines.
Step 16
Give the peacock a place to perch. Extend a set of parallel curves on each side of the tail. These lines form a branch. Add a few curves along its length to give it the texture of wood. Draw a small curved line between the branch and the wing to indicate the bird’s feet.
Step 17
Draw the peacock’s eyes using two curved lines, so that they meet at a point at each end. Draw a curved line through the eye to enclose the pupil. Highlight the eyes with two small circles. Ball between lines and circles.
Step 18
Outline the beak and eyes with a curved line.
Step 19
Draw feathers on the peacock’s head. Draw multiple sets of curves extending from the top of the head. Then draw a circle on each se
