1

Draw a small circle for the head and then a small grape shape for the body. Also add the guidelines for the wings?

2

You will begin forming the black bird's body starting with the head and beak. Once that is done draw the wings in an even wingspan.

3

You can now draw the tail and tail feathers, then draw the rest of the body along with the black legs and feet.

4

Begin drawing the skeletal bones for the face and head as well as the heart.

5

Draw the chest bone down the front of the body, then draw in the black bird's ribs and tail bones.

6

Lastly, erase your mistakes and then draw the bones for the wings. You can clean up the guidelines too.

7

Color in your black bird drawing any way you like. Thanks for joining me with making a black bird.

Description: Moving on with the days fill of tutorial submissions, I will upload this lesson on drawing a black bird. As you can see this is not your traditional black bird concept, but I did try to stay true to the bird's characteristics. There are two qualities a black bird drawing should have; the color of the bird, and the colored marking on the shoulder. I went with the red patch instead of the yellow and instead of drawing the patch in a square, I made a heart on the throat. The skeletal bones give it that death appeal to the bird as it is a species that are associated with death.
