A More Advanced Draw 50
Like most of the Draw 50 books, this one features 50 step-by-step drawings for the reader to follow along and draw his/herself. The results are satisfying. I’d say this one takes things a bit further than the early books, like Draw 50 Animals. There is more shading featured and the birds are a bit more complicated. It’s still easy, just not quite as simple as some other Draw 50s. For young children, Draw 50 Animals might be a better choice, as it would be easier to get pleasing results, right away. Older kids and adults can dive into this book and produce some lovely birds that are fun to draw.
