Drawing Birds-Suggesting Detail without getting lost in the feathers (video workshop)

Learn how to draw birds by simplifying plumage details, increasing drawing speed, accuracy, and making your sketches more lifelike. In this workshop you will learn the basics of bird feather anatomy and how to suggest the complexity with a minimum of fuss and hassle. The principles of simplification also apply to drawing many other subjects and can be broadly applied.

 

The trick is to understand more than you can see and to draw less than you know.
