Eraser
Sharpener
Ruler
Blending stump or tissue (optional)
Drawing paper
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Basic Outline:
Draw the Horizon Line: Lightly draw a horizontal line across your paper to represent the wall's top edge.
Sketch the Wall: Below the horizon line, draw two parallel horizontal lines to form the wall’s thickness. Add vertical lines for the wall's bricks or stones, creating a texture.
Position the Birds: Draw small circles or ovals on top of the wall where you want the birds to sit. Ensure they are spaced naturally and vary their sizes slightly for realism.
2. Drawing the Birds:
Basic Shapes: For each bird, start with a small oval for the body and a smaller circle for the head. Draw a guideline for the beak.
Details: Add beaks by extending a small triangle from each head. Sketch out the wings and tails with gentle, curved lines. Add legs and claws gripping the wall.
Refine: Refine the birds' outlines, making the lines more defined. Add eyes and small feather details.
3. Moonlight Scene:
Moon: Draw a large circle in the sky for the moon. Position it to create a balanced composition, often off-center.
Clouds: Add soft, fluffy clouds around the moon using light, curved lines. Ensure they don’t obscure the birds.
Light Source: Indicate the direction of the moonlight by shading one side of the birds and the wall slightly lighter.
4. Adding Details:
Texture on the Wall: Use short, irregular lines to create the texture of bricks or stones on the wall. Add shadows beneath the birds to ground them.
Feathers: Add more detailed feathers on the birds, especially around the wings and tails. Use short, fine strokes.
Shadows and Highlights: Add shading to create depth. Use the 2B and 4B pencils for darker areas, such as the shadows on the wall and the birds' undersides. Blend with a stump or tissue for a smooth effect.
5. Final Touches:
Background Elements: Add faint trees or distant hills in the background for more depth, keeping them light to emphasize the moonlit scene.
Highlight the Moon: Use an eraser to gently lift graphite from areas where the moonlight would be the brightest, such as the tops of the birds and the wall's edge facing the moon.
Blending: Blend the sky and background to create a smooth, nocturnal atmosphere. Darken the sky gradually as you move away from the moon.
