The flamingo is a graceful and majestic bird. It's very attractive to look at, and its pink colored body adds to its appeal. I always wanted to know how to draw a flamingo. That's mostly because I was baffled by the bird's sheer beauty, and always admired it in general. Recently, as I got back to my old habits of drawing and painting, I decided to explore the best possible ways to draw flamingos. So, I sat myself down, headed over to YouTube, and got through some of the best flamingo drawing tutorials available on the platform. These videos helped me a lot, and if you're anything like me, and have been just as curious, I believe that you too can benefit from these videos.
To draw a flamingo, you can follow a three step approach. In the first step, you draw the bird's long neck. Next, you sketch its body. Finally, you draw the bird's legs. Usually, most flamingo drawings show the bird standing. Sometimes, however, you'll also need to show them in a flying state.
This video tutorial is mostly for kids. It’s a very easy process to draw flamingos. There’s no complex step in this procedure, which makes it easy to work with, and perfect for kids. If you want, you use this drawing in cards or other paper decorations. I personally prefer to use this for decorating little kids’ rooms.

This beginner friendly tutorial will show you how to draw a flamingo in a few easy steps. The video is very nicely arranged, and easy to follow. You can drop the pencil for this drawing and instead, use a pen or marker if you want. I also recommend you try to add a bit of depth to it, like the drawing we’ve seen earlier. Because at its current state, the drawing looks a bit bland. Do you think you can add a bit of your own creativity to it, and make it feel a bit more alive?
