Peacock with open tail

Will need:

  1. Black marker;
  2. Different colors of felt-tip pens;
  3. A sheet of paper.

Place the sheet horizontally. Take the marker in your hand and imagine a duck for a bath. The body of the peacock will be the same shape. The bird is turned to us on its left side. Do not blur about the beak. The eye is located in the middle of the head and is shaped like a circle, with a painted black circle inside.

On the head we draw three "lollipops" rounded shape, not very big. Now, let's move on to the tail. Presenting the petals of the daisy. One petal - a feather of a bird.

Draw such feathers nine pieces, if not more. Underneath add two legs. You can go on to painting the tail.

It can be done as the author of the drawing wishes.

Peacock with oil pastels

We will need:

  1. A sheet of paper;
  2. Oil pastel.

White sheet arranged vertically. We start with the color purple. Draw a circle with it, not closed at the top. Next, we add the neck. Its lines go straight from the circle to the top. Draw a circle smaller than the first one on the neck. We take the orange color and draw his beak, he is directed forward, toward us. Draw it from the inside.

Paint the whole body of the peacock with lilac. Use purple to draw arc-shaped lines on the belly of the peacock and a "crown" of three "petals" on the head. Use the same color to draw an oval around the peacock, the ends of which connect to the lower part of the bird's torso.

Divide the oval into small pieces, using rounded lines. The upper lines "slices" do in the form of a semicircle. Different colors painted feathers. Colors should be bright and juicy. Orange paint paws and on them with black claws.

Black draw closed eyes with long eyelashes, and on the beak two small dots - a nose. Brown to draw the ground under the feet of the peacock and the middle of the feathers.

How to draw a peacock

You will need:

  1. Palm;
  2. Gouache;
  3. Sheet of paper;
  4. Brushes;
  5. A cup of water.

Here we go. Take a brush and dip it in dark blue gouache, and then apply it to the right hand. We paint the whole palm. Dip the brush into the jar of water and stir it, thus getting rid of the blue color. Dip a brush in white paint and apply it over the previous layer.

Place a sheet of paper horizontally and leave a handprint in the middle of it. Go to wash the hand. We mix white and blue, but the dominant shade should be blue.

Where the thumb is imprinted, we draw a small circle on top. And from that circle, you draw a straight, smooth line to the rest of the palm. Draw the hand to the end, so as not to leave any gaps. Again we mix blue and white, with white being the dominant color.

Apply this color under the upper fingers and in the middle of the palm. Take the purple color and use it to put four circles on the top fingers. With a thinner brush and the same shade depict on the head of the peacock lines, which at the ends are twisted into a roll.

Add a small closed peephole. It is very easy to draw it, in one movement. Imagine a rainbow and turn it upside down, that's what the eye looks like. Draw a beak and paws in yellow. Use green to depict a peacock's tail.

On the sides of the upper toes, add thin lines. Inside the purple circles add smaller circles and white color.

Peacock in simple pencil.

Needed:

  1. A sheet of paper;
  2. Eraser;
  3. A simple pencil.

The bird is turned with its head to the right.

We start drawing from the head. Draw a small circle with a pencil. About two centimeters below it there is a wing. It is drawn in the form of a sheet, the tip of which is directed to the right side. Connect the head with a wing smooth lines.

On top of the wing, we draw its slightly reduced copy, which goes beyond the main wing by a couple of millimeters. And it has a pointed tip. From the middle of the lower part of the big wing we indent to the right a couple of millimeters and imagine what the tail will look like.

It will be very fluffy, but not fluffy. We draw thin zigzag lines. The first line will look like the lower half of the letter S (elongated), and the second line, which will be located to the right after two, three centimeters, is an arc-shaped line that connects to the first at the end.

On the tail we draw the characteristic peacock "drops". They look like raindrops, with the same figure inside, but smaller. The drops are not very big in principle, from the beginning to the end of the tail. We add a sharp beak and a crease on the neck to the head of the peacock.

Draw the eye. Draw four "lollipops on a stick" on the head of the peacock. Draw the feathers on a smaller wing, finish drawing feet.

Legs look like pants, followed by thin legs. Peacock sits on a large twig of the tree, which turns into two twigs at the end. From the branches draw leaves. Pencil drawing is ready, if you want you can paint it.

Peacock from a number

We will need:

  1. A sheet of paper;
  2. Black marker;
  3. Colored pencils.

On a sheet of paper we draw two numbers - three and two. They are very close to each other. From the top line of the number three, draw a curved line to the middle of the number and form a circle with it and the bottom part of the three. At the top draw a beak and an eye, do not forget about the "lollipops". At the bottom of the figures draw a wing.

From the bottom of the body spend two legs. Connect the bottom of the figure two with a peacock in a straight line. The upper part of the two connect to the torso. From the neck to the tip of the two draw a semi-oval. In a smaller oval drew feathers.

In a large oval to draw a line from the beginning to the top, which in some places and at equal distances from each other have small ovals. The line does not overlap the oval. On the wing feathers are drawn. Moving on to coloring. Blue color drawing head, green neck, tummy blue shade.

Wing painted yellow, a small oval - green. Large oval in blue, circles in yellow pencil. Add shadows.

Peacock from a cartoon

Need:

  1. A sheet of paper;
  2. Black marker;
  3. Gouache, or pencils;
  4. Brushes;
  5. A jar of water.

We start with the marker. With it we draw a beak, triangular in shape. From it we draw a line. First, it represents the rounded shape of the head and neck. Stepping back a little less than a centimeter, from the neck downwards we draw a "snail", which tip goes up to the beak. All together have a shape similar to the number eight. Moving on to the eye.

Draw a line, slightly convex to the top. Down from the line add a semicircle, it has another circle, paint it, leaving a glare. Now paws, they are three-dimensional in the lower part.

We start with a thin line, which then expands and ends with the toes. Also depict the second leg. Imagine how to grow peas, what shape and how they are attached. The same three "peas" we will depict on the head of the peacock.

Next, the tail will be shaped like a seashell. Or the petals of the same daisy. There are about ten of them. We paint the tail in blue gouache, with two feathers, just like all the other colors. We paint the paws in orange, as well as the beak, and the body in white gouache.

Peacock with colored pencils

You will need:

  1. A sheet of paper;
  2. Colored pencils;
  3. A simple pencil;
  4. Eraser.

Imagine small children's pens and draw them, they are almost half a centimeter in size. From them we draw two lines. In total there should be four of these things. This is the crest of a peacock. From last feather on the left side we draw tree bark, small, one or two centimeters, directed to the left side.

From the bottom of it we draw the beak, it's quite massive. Do not forget about the nostril. From the beak to the top lead "mask" and depict the eye on it. This is a bead with a glare inside, above it limits the line. From the beak lead bent inside line, the same lead to the "bark.

Draw the body, it is in the form of a small pear. From him lead lines, not straight, but curved, like a rainbow. From them go small jerky lines. And near the torso, where the back is, we draw small ovals, two or three centimeters. There are only three of them.

Let's move on to coloring.

Blue color shading "bark" and the torso. More forcefully draw the "bark", adding her rounded elements, highlighting them with a pencil. Also select the neck and from it lead lines on the form, similar to the lines of the torso. Likewise trace the top of the "handles".

Yellow paint "mask" on the head of the peacock. Purple lightly draw lines around the body. Green highlight the neck and less painted areas of the body. Paint over the gaps in the body of the peacock with blue. Black pencil draw shadows on the neck.

Painting the beak and the bottom part of the "mask" with yellow. Orange shade draw the walls of the beak. Purple pencil paint the crest. Let's add some color to our tail.

We start with yellow. It is used to trace the circles at the end of the feathers, from which small fibers also run, as throughout the feather. The same color is used to draw those ovals on the back. We also highlight them in green and add this color to all feathers.

In blue, we draw small circles on the tips of feathers from below. They are in a big yellow circle. Orange sketch the white remnants in the circle. Use the dark green shade to add even more volume to the feathers. Orange is used to draw the "legs" of the tuft. The drawing is done.

Many of these drawings are done in two or three minutes.

All explained step by step, with examples, in simple language. I hope this article was helpful to you.
