2019 has been a year of many challenges I have tried to push myself out of my drawing comfort zone and practice new new designs.
Those that have followed my work for sometime know that I love anything nautical related and this is always my go to.
For this design drawing a toucan was definitely not something that I have attempted before and incorporating my own style into it.
The challenge for this was trying to also add a pop of colour into the piece. Adding the pineapple with some leaves and flowers balanced the otherwise overwhelming black of the toucan.
I really enjoyed drawing this and have decided to turn this into an ongoing series of different birds. Currently in the works is a parrot and a raven, with more in the line up.

I also now have this design available at my redbubble store. Check them out now.
Is there a bird you would like to see? Let me know in the comments below
