Sketching Birds is EASY TOO!! Semi-Abstract Robin Tutorial

Thanks for tuning in to watch my urban sketching, ink and watercolour tutorial! Don't forget to check out my channel where I have hundreds of different urban sketch tutorials, as well as other watercolour and ink sketching guides for everyone from beginners to more advanced!

If you'd like to support my channel you can buy me a 'Coffee' on KoFi - ko-fi.com/tobyurbansketch
When I reach my goal I'll upgrade my sketching tutorials with a new camera and use my old camera to give an extra view point in my videos! Perhaps my face, perhaps my watercolour palette, or some close ups of my process!

This is my 2022 Robin sketch! Following my pretty much yearly for the past 5 or more years sketching of robins when it gets even vaguely near Christmas!

They're just such a lovely shape, and wonderful colours, and great fun to sketch and draw. And birds can be really easy to sketch as well.

Every year I love sketching and painting robins, it just feels festive at this time of year. You'll find on my instagram and youtube, every December, another variation on a Robin!

So, I thought, why not do it again and show you how easy and fun it can be.

Using this little chap I'll talk to you a lot about structure and planes (again!) and how we can use them to sketch anything and everything you could imagine wanting to sketch. Including birds, people, dogs, hats, cats, buildings, ice sculptures... you get the idea...

So I'm going to try to persuade you to have a go at this technique, using structural lines to pin not just the shape but the colours and shadows. And see how easy and simple it becomes to get these interesting vivid sketches done yourself.

Let me know, too, your thoughts on this semi-abstract chap! Did it go wrong somewhere for you? Or is this the best thing ever - love to hear your thoughts :)
