How to Draw a Peacock Feather
I invite you to a lesson in which I will show you how to draw a peacock feather. I am sure that this lesson will be useful for you.
With the help of a simple instruction, I want to show you how to draw a peacock feather. The tail of a peacock consists of long feathers, which he spreads like a fan. At the end of the feather is a bright and expressive “eye”.
Very often, the image of a peacock feather is used in clothing or interior design. Many artists depict a peacock feather in their paintings.
You can see that the peacock feather has a long, thin stem with grooves along the sides. All grooves are long, thin and have curved ends.
