Before you start the drawing, you’ll want to pick up some professional drawing pencils for sketching, drawing, shading, and putting in the fine details. You will find one suitable for you in the selection of pencils in this 50 Pcs Professional Drawing Pencil Set. You need to make a sketch of a leaf-like curve for the outer edge of the feather on the bottom of the paper. Then, draw another mini leaf inside, and the smaller leaf would be the feather shaft of the feather. You can also draw some messy little feathers on the top half of the leaf to create fluffy with a root on the top.

Step 2: Paint over the sketch with watercolor paints
Used: 48 Watercolor Paint Set Including 12 Metallic Colors
In this step, choose five bright colors that are close to each other from this 48 colors artist's watercolor paint set. Use the lightest color as a base, cover the entire feather, and then layer the darker color around the feather. The colors should be layered on top of each other to make a perfect blend in. Similarly, using watercolor paint brushes apply the same five colors and mix with moderate water to create a hazy blooming effect on the top half of the feathers connecting the roots.

Step 3: Add details and shadows to your artwork
Used: 11 Pcs Miniature Detail Fine Tip Paint Brush Set
Once the paint from the previous step is dry, you can use the detail paint brushes to dip the five colors and mix a very small amount of water to paint some feather details and increase the overall layering of the feather.
