Finished Tweety drawing with large eyes, small wings, and oversized feet

In this tutorial, we are going to show you how to draw Tweety, an extremely well-known canary usually inseparable from Sylvester the Cat. The figure is very simple, and we think all our readers can draw it.

But if you cannot draw it, let us know in the comments below the post which step caused difficulty. Now, let’s begin the tutorial on how to draw Tweety!

How to draw Tweety step by step

Step 1: Sketch Tweety’s round head

First, draw the head in the shape of an oval. It should look like a slightly flattened circle. As you already know, the lines in the first steps should be very light.

Step 2: Add the cartoon jaw guidelines

Draw the contours of Tweety’s jaw and mark the vertical centerline. As you can see, the head consists of two shapes. The facial symmetry line passes through both shapes.

Step 3: Outline Tweety’s small body

Now draw the body and upper limbs. The small cartoon body connects to the large head with a thin, slightly sloping neck. Sketch the arms extending from the upper part of the body.

Step 4: Draw the bird’s legs and tail

Tweety’s arms are very short and small, but the legs are strong and large. They are simple to draw because they consist of rounded shapes, each of which can be drawn without lifting the pencil from the paper. Also, outline the tail.

Step 5: Sketch the eyes and beak

Now that you have created Tweety’s silhouette, draw the cartoon eyes. Then sketch the contours of the beak. Use the guidelines from the second step to position these features correctly.
