A cheerful cockatoo with a tall spiky crest and a big curved beak sits on a branch with a few leaves. Its wings and tail are made of large, simple feather shapes, and there is no background to get in the way. The thick outlines and roomy spaces suit little ones aged 2 to 5. Color the bird white, the crest sunny yellow and the beak dark gray.
Perched on a leafy gum branch, a cockatoo raises its fan of crest feathers and looks out across the bush. Rounded shrubs, tufts of grass, two clouds and a round sun fill the scene behind it. Clear lines and medium shapes suit kids aged about 5 to 10. Try a white body with a lemon yellow crest, olive green leaves and a soft blue sky.
A sulphur-crested cockatoo grips a thick, knotted eucalyptus branch with its scaly feet. Long gum leaves hang all around, with clusters of gumnuts and fluffy round blossoms, and every feather on its wings and crest is drawn in fine lines. The level of detail suits older kids, teens and adults. Shade the white feathers with pale gray and cream, and give the crest a golden yellow glow.
Patterned feathers cover a cockatoo perched on a branch deep inside a eucalyptus tree. Dense gum leaves, hanging gumnuts and spiky blossoms fill every corner of the page, leaving almost no empty space. Made for teens and adults who enjoy slow, detailed work with fine pens. Keep the bird white and pale yellow so it stands out against sage greens and warm pink and cream blossoms.
