Step by Step Drawing

by GENEVIEVE BROWN

1. To start, draw a wide upside-down U shape, then bring the right side of the U down. Draw the wing by sketching a curved line outwards from the middle of the previous line.

2. Next, draw the belly of the dove below the lines you've already drawn. Then, draw an adjacent line next to the first wing. This will be your second wing.

3. Then, draw another adjacent line close to the first line you drew, but don't let it touch the dove's back. Finish off the wings with a straight or bumpy line.

4. Next, draw another adjacent line next to the second wing you drew like you did with the first wing. At the end of your wing bring a straight line down and draw a tail as shown in the picture.

5. Add a beak, eyes, and feet. Your drawing should begin to look like a dove now.

6. Then, draw an olive branch in the beak of your dove's mouth.

7. Now, add your own finishing touches, such as a rainbow, clouds, a sun, an ocean, or any other details you want in the background of your drawing.

8. Now for the last step: add color!
