5 Step Friday Full Process Tutorial: Paint a Hummingbird 💜 (Patreon)

I thought it would be fun to paint a little hummingbird for this weeks 5 Step Friday! ( if you missed what the heck 5 Step Friday even is you can read all about it here!) They come in so many beautiful colors, and they're one of my favorite things to watch.

I have 5 feeders outside and I could honestly sit and watch them for hours. They're tiny, feisty, endlessly entertaining (they're always chasing each other around 😂) and somehow still manage to feel so whimsical. Sometimes they'll even hover outside my window and stare at me when their feeder is empty...Do you have hummingbirds where you live?

Attached to this post you'll find everything you need to paint right alongside me:

This week's tutorial has sub steps! Don't get overwhelmed by it. I just wanted to make everything as detailed and easy to follow as possible. 😊 Okay, let's paint! ↴

Tip: Don't feel like your hummingbird has to look exactly like mine. Try changing the colors, (you don't have to use the exact same colors I've listed) pairing it with a different flower, or painting it in a new position. One simple shape can become so many different hummingbirds! Trust me they get addicting to paint!

I'd love for this series to be shaped by you! If you have ideas for future 5 Step Friday tutorials, send them my way! 💕

I can't wait to see your paintings, so don't forget to tag me!
