Applying the Watercolor
We’ll use colored pencils to enhance colors and refine details. We’ll use the watercolor as an underpainting. So, let’s continue next to watercolor.
Creating a Color Base
Let’s add some beautiful painterly washes!
With round brush #5, I moisten the area with clean water before applying the paint. Note that watercolor is heavily diluted. You can use a palette or a spare piece of paper to try the intensity of your colors before making marks on the final surface.
The type of paper affect the result. My paper has some percentage of cotton in its structure. It’s no wonder that the applications of watercolor will look significantly faded after drying.
I add Madder Lake Red Light mostly to the upper part of the bird’s body, including the head and neck.
Quinacridone Rose is applied to the legs and the lower areas of the wing. These areas would normally get less light from the environment. This wonderful red-violet color accents the subtle transition to shadowed areas.
I use a smaller brush #2 to paint the head, neck, and legs of the flamingo.
I apply an additional layer of watercolor to the darkest parts, such as the upper legs, the area under the wing, and the gaps between the feathers.
Pigments tend to consolidate into harsh edges near the contours of the figure. I use the smaller brush to push the pigments away from the edge while wet, without any pigment loaded in the brush.
I also add some diluted Yellow Ochre to the beak. Flamingos can be found at a beach, so I’ve decided to create a hint at sand under the bird’s feet.
First, I moisten the area with a clean brush. Then I apply the watercolor.
Creating Splashes
Now we’ll add some watercolor splashes to make the artwork more vivid and expressive.
But first, we have to make a protective stencil. It should repeat the shape of our bird. The stencil will cover the flamingo, allowing the splatter to go all over the negative space.
Here’s the easiest way to make a stencil…
Put a sheet of thin paper on top of your painting. Such paper has some level of transparency – especially if you place it against a light source. You’ll be able to see the silhouette of your artwork through the upper blank layer.
I outline the rough contour with a pencil and cut it out. Then I put the stencil on top of the bird.
I dip my bristle brush into the paint. I’ll be using all three colors one by one.
The wetter your brush, the bigger stains you can get. It may be a good idea to try this method beforehand – create some splatters on a spare piece of printer paper.
Press on the top edge of the bristles with a finger and push them aside. Feel how the bristles are trying to spring back. As soon as they are released, the paint will fall onto the surface beneath the brush.
Create as many stains as you wish. Let the artwork dry completely before proceeding to colored pencils.
Drawing a Flamingo with Colored Pencils
With Light Flesh, I cover the whole figure of our flamingo, including the legs and the lighter areas of the beak. My pencil moves in small circles. Directional lines are also an option.
The pressure on the pencil is light.
The application of this tint doesn’t change much in our artwork. It rather creates a base for further colored pencil applications. There is just a minor shift in the color temperature – the colors have become warmer.
I add Rose Carmine to the darker areas, applying it as a solid layer. Such areas include the lower parts of the head and body. I deepen the shadows between the wing feathers. The pressure is slightly increased.
Also, I mark out the legs by making their right sides a bit darker. Soft shadows help to differentiate the toes visually. I work on the neck, following a similar approach.
The upper part of the body is lighter, so I use this color to reveal some basic details of texture. I apply long lines that conform to the contours of the bird’s body. They imitate long, fluffy feathers.
When I’m working on such details, I always make sure that the tip of the pencil is sharp.
I add groups of short directional hatches to the lighter parts of the neck. They create the illusion of texture.
There is a soft pink spot on the flamingo’s beak, so I add it. I also darken the area near the eye.
In the image below, you’ll find a couple of samples of texture.
With Deep Red, I make the colors even warmer. I strengthen the core shadows, including the lower part of the bird’s body, the side of the neck, and the legs.

I leave some gaps in the covering. They let the underlying applications of watercolor show through, creating a pleasant variation in color temperature.
I add long, thin lines to the lighter parts of the bird’s body. They repeat its contours and strengthen the illusion of texture.
I apply Ivory on top of the lighter areas, including the beak, the lower parts of the legs, and feet. The pressure on the pencil is increased and the lines repeat the contours of the bird’s body.
As I move the pencil tip, I move the pigments found on the paper’s surface. The covering becomes smoother and more unified.
I work on the midtones in the same manner, using Salmon. I also polish the darker areas to unite the applications visually.
With Brown Ochre, I create nice subtle nuances in the plumage. I add dots and short strokes to the legs and feet, creating the illusion of texture there.
This color is also applied to the area near the bird’s feet. The pencil moves in small circles at very light pressure. The edges of the resulting shape are very soft and blended.
With Red-Violet, I accent the darkest parts of the drawing, increasing the contrast.
I also draw the pupil. The pencil point is very sharp!
I use Payne’s Grey to shade the tip of the beak. I also darken the area of cast shadow on the sand that is beneath the flamingo’s feet.
We can include this gray into the darkest parts of the drawing, but keep the pressure as light as possible.
