Magpie, chiffchaff, bee-eater and woodpecker! Some attempt at learning to draw with colored pencils and I’m really happy with how they turned out!

Love the off-white color and texture of the bamboo paper I used, though unfortunately it’s a bit too “soft” and starts dissolving when pressing too hard with the pencils. Still wasn’t able to find a paper with that color that works better for pencils :')

Edit: Thanks so much for all the love on these <3 Next step is to learn to draw them from real life and not just photos!

    that would be awesome! I do photography and I mostly focus on landscapes, but I’ve been trying to get better at take bird photos and I’m not very good at it yet. those guys are flighty!

      That’s so cool! I’d love to do some bird photography as well, but the cameras and lenses are so darn expensive :')
