REALISTIC BIRD - Drawing a Kookaburra with Derwent Drawing colour pencils on Canson Mi-Teintes paper

I always get a lot of positive feedback on my videos about Derwent Drawing pencils so here is another one. I always love to share what these pencils with their limited colour range can achieve, so today I'm using just the Derwent Drawing Pencils to create this realistic artwork of a Laughing Kookaburra on Canson Mi-Teintes paper. It shows that you don't need to work big, or to include lots of fine detail in order to achieve a realistic look.
Thank you for watching my video. Please leave a comment down below, like my video with a "thumbs up" and subscribe to my channel. I upload a new art video every week, and work primarily in coloured pencil and traditional gouache paint. My focus is wildlife as I have a passion for conservation and biology, but I also do pet portraits and "how to" videos as well.

This was great! Derwent drawing are my absolute favourite pencils. I only wish there were more than 24! 💗

[@brusheswithbec]

Thank you so much! I know what you mean, the colours are fantastic but sometimes I am left wanting for more.

Very beautiful! I drew one a couple years back and think that they are beautiful and awesome bird. That year I drew a few typical species of Australia as we were very worried and love all the animals there as in all Australasia. Great job. I am doing a colored pencil drawing of a sapsucker. It is quite camouflaged. I really enjoy the Pastelmat but it is so expensive. I am using Derwent Lightfast, Drawing, Polys, a few Pablos and Luminance. I use the Polys as my base then mix and go back to the Polys for detail. I enjoy your work very much!

[@brusheswithbec]

They are certainly a wonderful bird, but I find basically all birds wonderful 🤣 All the best for your Sapsucker piece :)

[@amazingnature23]

Love it!

Hi i want to know before buying derwent colouring pencils i have a black carson mi-tientes pastel paper and thd pencils don't seem to blend well with just the pencils themselves so interested if the blend well on the paper

[@brusheswithbec]

There are lots of different types of Derwent pencils, which can change how they blend. I find Canson Mi-teintes paper to be good for blending though, though it can take a bit of getting used to.
