PEACOCK TUTORIAL

FUNDAMENTALS

Draw a colourful peacock head with me where I teach you every step of the way exactly how to recreate this vibrant bird. Key techniques are how to create contrast, draw vibrant colours and feathers.

PAPER

I use Fabriano Artistico hot pressed watercolour paper 640GSM for this tutorial which has a texture to it. Alternatively, I recommend the 300GSM Fabriano which is cheaper, or start out with a paper such as Strathmore 300 Series Bristol Vellum as it's perfect for beginners.
