Beginner-friendly realistic watercolor birds | Eastern Bluebird

A step-by-step beginner-friendly tutorial on how to paint a realistic Eastern Bluebird in watercolours. The Eastern Bluebird is a small North American migratory bird that was at the brink of extinction in the early 20th century. It was thanks to the marvelous efforts of the common people at the time that saved this sweet little bird from extinction, and so many people can still enjoy its beauty and its melodious singing!
