We are learning to draw a crow also called the Raven, for the children and beginners. Ravens are big, black, and shiny birds all most present everywhere on the planet.
They are not so beloved in all corners of the globe but simultaneously they hold religious significance in Hinduism culture. If you desire to draw your own crow then you don’t require any specific equipment for this. Grab a paper, pencil, black marker, these are primary writing tools.
To finish this drawing adhere to the provided step and make your drawing. Always draw with a light touch so that you can erase if wrong. An eraser-friendly artist always gets it perfect with their work.
How to draw a crow:
Step 1: As we do for all our drawings, begin by drawing head with assistance of an oval. Draw this at the left corner of your page.
Step 2: Draw a second, larger oval attached to the first oval. The second oval should tilt from the first one towards the bottom right edge. It will reach the middle of the page. This is the body of the raven.
Step 3: Draw 2 slightly curved lines joining the head and body to form the neck. Sketch one line from the upper part of the oval moving forward in the corner of the paper. Start the second line from the below of oval forming a curve and then parallel to the first one, keep the end open.
Step 4: Draw a wavy line from the center of the oval and extending to the center of the tail line. Draw another line and attach it to the back of the bird.
Draw some small curved zig-zag feathers, all curves terminating in a jagged point. Draw these feathers on the neckline, tip of the tail, and under a large oval.
Step 5: Remove all overlapped lines and guidelines sketched. Delete the outline of the head ovals’ wings, body, and stomach.
Draw the legs, begin with the curved line from the lower bottom section of the stomach. Draw the bottom leg at an angeled with the top leg. Draw small jagged joints in the joint line of leg.
Step 6: Draw the foot using the wavy line under the leg. there are 4 toes in each leg with the claws. Draw the second leg’s toes too. Draw small triangular claws at the end of each claw.
Step 7: Draw beak with 3 curves, begin them from the same point bifurcating, and then meeting at the end again with the jagged end. Draw the beak in such a way that it overlaps the head.
Join the right side of the top and middle lines with a straight line which turns sharply at the bottom.
Step 8: Erase the straight line of the beak and you will have a clear picture of the crow.
Erase the straight line of the beak and the curved line passing over the upper front leg.
Step 9: Draw a feather with the jagged line all over the body. Draw feather texture in the upper wing. Draw 5 curves on the crow’s flight feathers. Draw parallel lines on the tail..
Close to the beak draw 3 circles for eyes and color the middle circle.
Step 10: Drawing is over, finish it by coloring it with grey and black color.
