How to draw a PELICAN

Learn how to draw this cute pelican of your very own.


You will need:
- Pencil
- Pen
- Eraser
- Paper
- Colored pencils or crayons
- Ruler (suggested)


Jeff's Tips & Ideas : Use lightly sketched pencil lines first for the structure. After, use a pen to draw in the final lines. When you're finished, erase the underlying pencil lines to reveal your drawing. Then - color it!

 


Let's start! Follow step by step our easy indications below !

 

STEP 1

 

Begin your pelican similar to how we've done so with other birds.  Two simple shapes to start - a circle and an oval... followed by anything else that might help.  A cross, the wing oval... feet... which ever helps!

STEP 2

 

Here I've sketched in the over-sized bill of a pelican - and in a different color for contrast... the tail.

And colored - the finished product remains.  BUT - wouldn't if be that much cooler if he had a fish coming out of his bill?  For sure... tap into your imagination and make it happen.  There's another lesson here to help you out with this.  :-)
