How to Draw a Realistic Robin | Coloured Pencil Tutorial Part 1

Join me for part 1 of this 'draw with me series', where we draw the head of this gorgeous robin together in real-time. You'll hear my thought processes along with my reasoning for choosing certain colours or using specific techniques.

I feel like the drawing ended up looking slightly different to the reference photo but that's ok! We're practicing so it doesn't matter if it isn't 100% perfect.
