Make It More Fun
Coloring isn’t just about staying in the lines, it’s about discovering new ways to bring these birds to life. Some folks like to start with the beak, carefully picking just the right shade of yellow or orange before moving on to the rest. Others dive right into the feathers, layering colors until they’ve created something uniquely their own. Don’t be afraid to experiment, that’s how the best art happens.
Many artists (both young and young-at-heart) find that mixing different tools creates amazing effects. Try using colored pencils for the delicate parts, like tiny feathers or eyes, then switch to markers for bold backgrounds. Watercolors can add a dreamy touch, especially when you’re working on night scenes or soft sunset backgrounds. Some of our community members even use glitter pens to add sparkle to hummingbird wings or peacock feathers.
🖍️ Creative Techniques to Try:
- Layer light colors first, then add darker shades on top for depth
- Use small circular motions when coloring feathers, it creates a more natural texture
- Try coloring the same bird twice with different color schemes
- Add patterns in the background, like leaves or clouds
- Print an extra copy to practice on before starting your masterpiece
