Bird observation through drawing and watercolour

Sofia Gazarian’s guide connects practical art instruction with close observation of birds. It covers materials, foundational drawing and painting techniques, and simplified bird anatomy, with step-by-step guidance for sketching in pencil and working with paint. Birds from around the world provide examples, while bird facts and suggestions for observing nearby species link studio practice to the natural world. Prompts for getting started address the blank page, and the book frames sketching as a creative practice that can be taken up in a sketchbook wherever the artist is.
