Michele, there is just so much to say about this video, so first off, thank you for another wonderful tutorial! I struggle with sketching birds, so your clear approach in sketching the eyes and beak first are quite helpful since those seem to be the hardest part for me. It's quite amazing how as soon as you created their little eyes, they came right to life! I am blown away by your talent and I absolutely love seeing your channel grow. It's been a real treat seeing how many videos you've been posting. You're spoiling us and we're all good with that :) Thank you Michele.
I am a professional artist that displays work in an artist co-op. I often get artist block because I’m too busy thinking about what someone might buy. I discovered your channel today and actually did some art that was just fun and for me! It felt really nice to just draw with you and not feel the pressure of needing to paint something to sell. Thank you!
Those labels would be so cute to put on the envelope of a letter or a greeting card. I love the idea of quick sketches to do in between my laborious watercolor paintings so I can stay creative while just relaxing in front of the tv. ❤😊 Thank you for sharing this! 👍
The tutorial as ever is of the highest quality, your warm commentary invites us to bring a sketch to life. The birds you worked on are brought to life as your pen dresses them with feathers and adds a twinkle in their eye. You are full of encouragement and so inspiring a true master of art. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent. Hats off to a accomplished master who's videos are simply THE BEST! 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤
I just couldn’t agreeAGREEagree more! You are spot-on. Michele offers her viewers SUCH a wealth of Art Love, like you say, her lovelies are e n t i r e l y Invitational’! Welcoming & Validating all who care to delve in! And this is precisely what Life is aaaall about. I love your comments. Beautiful! 🌸🌿
Starting with the eye was a game changer. I’m not as good as you but even my first try was a MUCH more realistic bird than I have ever sketched. Thank you.
i really love birds and i love drawing but i dont know how to draw. this is the first video i saw on drawing birds and it is amazing. thank you for helping me and other curious souls. God bless you
Oh my goodness.. that's total confidence to be able to"sketch" with pen!! Not to mention different poses from your imagination... Pure talent! So impressive!!❤️ They're all absolutely beautiful!!
Love birds! TY for sharing your time and talent. Could watch you "doodling" all day. Your approach to instructions are so very practical and encouraging to follow. These birds are so beautiful and lifelike and it is so impressive that you sketched them from memory. A true artist at heart!
I love how you draw the bird. Most tutorial show to draw round or oval but that throw me off. I prefer to start with their head so your tutorial is helpful to me. Thanks
I honesty don't know how I stomped upon your channel, I am into junk journals and sketching with rulers but you made this seem so easy!!! I am certainly going to give it a try. One more subscriber. Thank you.
What a great idea to use brought labels. One just needs ideas, not so easy as one would think, I should immagine. All the different little birds, shapes and sizes. I also have difficulties on drawing things, like birds 🥴. You have taken away my fear of trying to draw, sketch them. Why do we have to make things complicated when there is no need for. I think trying or rather wanting to be perfect is so counter productive, too self critical takes all the fun away, which is the main point isnt it, to enjoy what you create. This was so wonderfully shown in your super cute little mushroom houses. The ideas are - limitness. You can colour them in ink or aquarell, wet on wet technic that is also stunning with art sketched with the pens you have used. I am all fire and flame for your creations. Thank you so much for sharing your treasures with us!🙏💕
❤thank you for doing the tutorials. You can do this by memory, hard for me to do it. But with your tutorials Maybe I can.i love to Draw cardinals, but I draw pretty good. I have to look at a picture of the bird anyway .hopefully I can one day draw as well as you are great artist. Thank you and God bless you.
Wow, these are just amazingly stunning! Absolutely love the wreath with the birds, I could just look at it for hours... Stunning! Thank you so much for sharing, take care x
Fabulous video. I just started doodling in the last couple of years. I love your videos and so enjoy doodling along with you. ❤. From Ottawa Ontario. Btw I also make junk journals, 😂
Hi Michelle! Love everyone of your videos!!! Thanks for sharing !!! I had been painting, drawing, sketching every day!!! Those birds are sooooooooo sweet!!! God bless your hands and creativity! If you have the chanse I like to do some sketchings of succulent plants .I have my little "window garden" of them and I thought to do a journal .Thanks again!!!! Have a great day!!!😘
I'm so glad I randomly discovered you! I practice various birds but this was the most fun I ever had creating birds. The small sketchy lines took the threat away! Thanks, Michele.
These bird sketches are beautiful and I especially loved the one of the berry wreath. You have been blessed with amazing talent and have been generous in sharing it with us. Thank you.
Just love your drawing style . Uni-Ball Signo Gelstick Rollerball and Uni-Ball Air 0.5mm Rollerball Pen are also nice to sketch with and water proof also.
so happy to see your frequent videos as I live to watch you sketch and doodle. thank you for this bird tutorial. I’m just finishing up 2 watercolor lap books after watching your recent lap book series, one for my friend and one for me! After I’m done with them I will be attempting to sketch some birds. 😊
Thanks for your sketches. What a great way to get started drawing. I’ve never sketched before so this was a great way to learn. Again, thanks so much. It’s been a lot of fun!
I enjoyed this. I've been trying different tutorials, and it was interesting that you started inside the bird, with its eye. I need to practice!! But you're right, it's supposed to be fun and relaxing, otherwise why do it?
Thank you so much!!!! I started out learning to watercolour paint, only to realize that I needed to learn how to sketch. My attempts at birds have mostly fallen short, so this video will really help. Much appreciated!
I really really struggle with birds! I’ve been trying to muscle my way thru them but…yipes! Thank you so much for this! I’m happy to have found you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I am on the bus now to get home from school. As soon as I finish my homework I will get to sketching these. I would love to learn how to draw these beautiful birdies! 😊
Well I tried it and they turned out great! I sketched them in pencil at home and went over in pen during school the next day. They were so cute and pretty that everyone around me was asking to see my sketchbook and complimenting me. Thank you!
you should print a book, those scetches are so good .im glad i found you ,thank you i have stickers from goodwill too,i drew on the wrong side so im transfering it to the sticker side ,i love drawing and painting nature .do you show how to draw landscapes and faces im sure you do great your art is amazing,thank you
Hi Michele, I'm a birdwatcher and I have lots of bird photos and books so I'll give them a try. Failing that, I still have your digits. Thank you for this process video.
Superb tutorial! I consider myself artistic but birds are something I have seldom drawn. You make it look so easy and you have inspired me to give it another go. I would love more tutorials on other species of birds. You are a natural teacher and I wish my art teacher had given such clear instructions when I was still at school years ago.
9:15am PST in the PNW Thursday March 30th-new subscriber! This video is SO helpful to me - I Absolutely LOVE your artwork and tutorials! Thank you so much for the encouragement and inspiration! Now to go and sketch my own! God Bless you!
This is so useful! Thank you so much for sharing.. would you also be able to show how you draw them facing forward? Those look so wonderful and cute too, thank you again :)
How brilliant are these - fantastic! I love how you start with the eye, and then the beak, which seems contrary to how I'd imagine one would sketch a bird (or anything, tbh). But it works - your sketches are full of charm and accuracy. Love 'em. ♥
Your sketching makes me want to dig out my long-ago-abandoned sketchbooks and begin again to scribble away (the first video of yours I watched was mushroom fairy houses just a few days ago, now there are little fairy mushroom houses in my planner, on some of my collage catalog pages, in my distractions notebook...they're popping up everywhere I put pen to paper, lol). I did a channel search and see you haven't (YET??) done dogs, would you consider doing a/a few learn-to-sketch-dogs tutorial videos? (maybe even Boston Terriers, if I'm to be completely selfish, lol) LOVE your work and your videos and your style.
bruv that aint a doodle that a masterpiece
I never knew how easy it is to draw a realistic bird that is amazing

omg, what a wonderful speech you did! That paragraph made me want to do this even though it looks tricky! ❤

I was able to draw a DECENT bird!!!! Thanks to your tutorial!!!! THANK YOU!!
Brilliant and again your ‘sketches’ make me feel I can do it!
Those labels would be so cute to put on the envelope of a letter or a greeting card.

I love watching how you make these birds come to life so quickly. I can only aspire to be able to do the same, but I'm going to keep trying!

Thank you. I just drew my first bird, and it’s not bad!! Very easy to listen to, and follow along with.
Loved this*. I really want to get back into stretching, not done for many years. Ty for showing your process.
I'm so glad I randomly discovered you! I practice various birds but this was the most fun I ever had creating birds. The small sketchy lines took the threat away! Thanks, Michele.
So refreshing to watch someone who knows how to hold a pen properly. Lovely video! 🙏❤️
Wonderful tutorial! Can’t believe you just start with ink and not pencil! Confidence 😃😎
This is just fabulous. Thank you for you and your inclination to teach. I’m trying to soak up every last bit of it.
Thank you so much for this. I've been looking around for a follow along that wasn't quick, but also wasn't too cartoonish. This was perfect!
Thank you for the tutorial. Your instruction is easy to follow and you bring sketches to life!
