Feathers define the structural form of a swan, in much the same way as clothing defines the understructure of a person. In this project, you outline the various shapes of the swan, refine the contour drawing, add shading to define both form and texture, and use horizontal hatching lines to indicate the swan’s reflection in water.

This a beautiful lesson to learn how to draw a swan. thank you very for helping us beginners in learning how to draw.

a lil problem in th water part, other then that it is ok

Another example of trying to draw something beautiful when you're in a bad mood... the distress always shows in the drawing, like in this poor swan's face. But all in all, great lesson. I like the instructions for drawing the ripples.

My swan looks ok but my water needs improvement.

so good lesson!! i really enjoed it:) thanks:))
