How to Draw a Phoenix

 

Please PAUSE the "How to Draw a Phoenix" video after each step to draw at your own pace.

 

 

For the first few steps, don't press down too hard with your pencil. Use light, smooth strokes to begin.

 

Draw Phoenix 1

Step 1: Draw a circle as a guide for the top part of the phoenix's body. The circle doesn't have to be perfect. It's just a guide. Leave enough room at the top and bottom for the wings and tail.

 

Draw Phoenix 2

Step 2: Draw a smaller circle on the top left side as a guide for the phoenix's head.





Draw Phoenix 3

Step 3: Draw a triangle-like angled line to the left of the small circle as a guide for the top part of the phoenix's beak.

 

Draw Phoenix 4

Step 4: Draw another triangle-like angled line under the first one as a guide for the bottom part of the phoenix's beak.





Draw Phoenix 5

Step 5: Add a couple more curved lines to finish the guide for the body. Use a short curved line at the top to form the neck and an arc at the bottom for the lower half of the phoenix's body.
