Step 1: Gather Your Materials
Before you can even think about putting pencil to paper to draw your very own Tweety Bird, you have to have the right materials to help you get started. You’ll need a few things to get started: paper, pencils, something to draw on and of course, your imagination. Gather paper that you can use both for sketching and to draw on, soft pencils in various grades, an eraser, and even a ruler or compass if you’d like to get serious about making a detailed drawing of the beloved bird. Now that you have your things gathered, it’s time to get started.
Step 2: Begin Sketching
Start off by drawing a basic outline of Tweety’s body. This will help you to get the proportions and angles right because drawing a loopy bird-like body can be tricky. Tweety Bird typically is seen with a curved chest, a round head, and angled beak. Add some circles and ovals to represent eyes and a beak. Drawing a basic outline will give you a good idea of the bird’s structure. And, it’ll also help you to add details later on.
Step 3: Add Detail to Tweety Bird’s Body
Now that you have a basic outline of Tweety Bird’s body, it’s time to start giving him some definition. Start with the beak. It should sit on the top of his head, and should be sharply angled downward. Give him a big oval-shaped eye to represent his innocent face. When you’re working on the outline, try to make sure the lines are clean and strong. If you’re feeling adventurous, add ears or wings.
Step 4: Add Color
Once you’re happy with the shape and form of the bird, it’s time to add some color. While Tweety Bird is typically shown as an all yellow canary, his color can be as varied as your imagination. Try different shades of yellow, or even a few different colors. You can also add your own patterns, like stripes and dots, or even draw a few dainty flowers around his body for a truly unique look.
Step 5: Finishing Touches
Finally, the last step to drawing Tweety Bird is to add the finishing touches. Add in some more definition to his eyes and beak, give him a cute tail and a few fluffy feathers. Tweety should always look cheerful and smiley, so draw him a big grin and you’ll be all set.
Now that your Tweety Bird is complete, take a step back and admire your work. Take some pictures and send them to your friends and family; you’ve just created your very own version of the classic cartoon character! With a few steps, you can easily draw your own version of the friendly canary.
