How To Draw A Realistic Turkey

Thanksgiving is getting so close I can almost taste it! That means it’s time for some holiday art projects.

Grab a marker and paper we’re going to learn how to draw a turkey today. Gobble Gobble!

We’ve drawn a turkey before, we’ve also finger painted a turkey, we’ve even made a turkey cutout, but those were a couple years ago…this new turkey lesson is a little more realistic and 3 dimensional. We’re also going to show you how to shade and color it, so find those oil pastels too. Crayons will work, but they won’t blend as well or look as bright as oil pastels.
