Let's show how creative you are:- Drawing - Penguin

Hello friends I am here to participate in the craft contest organized by @benton3, since I am a lover of craft or drawing I decided to join in the contest.

Penguins is one of the birds that can't fly with flippers instead of wings. Their bodies are made for just swimming and diving in the water, they can swim with speed for about to 15 miles per hour. Their body shape is fusiform and and more effective, this allowed them to be expert in swimming. They have a big head, a short neck, and elongated body. The penguin usually have big head, short tails, stiff, and wedge-shaped.

The penguin legs and their tiny feet are set far back on the body, this gives penguins their upstanding posture on land. When snow conditions are accurate, they will slide on their bellies.

The food eaten by Penguins are krill, squids, and fishes. Though their food depends on the type of penguin species.

Penguin lives in the oceans and coasts. They usually lives on islands and remote continental regions with few land predators, so that when they are not able to fly they can't be harm.

Because of their longer lifespan, penguins do take like three to eight years to reach sexual maturity. Though the smaller species do begin their breeding at three or four years, and the larger species do not get to sexual maturity until later, Penguins do meet at nesting sites to reproduce.The female penguin usually lays just two eggs.

The penguin can live for like 15 to 29 years.

Since the penguin lives around ocean, I make sure my drawing initiate that.

I gather my drawing materials that I will be needed, which are.

• Drawing Paper.
• Pencils.
• Colour drawing pen
• Eraser

Firstly I use my pencil to a a dot sketch of penguin so that I won't be making mistakes.

When I was done with the sketch making, I still use the pencil to make it bold starting from the flippers or you can call it wings, I make sure it was very bold.

When I was done drawing the flippers, I then proceed to the body, the legs and the eyes of the penguin.
After drawing everything about the penguin, I draw the stand and the ocean part so as to show truly they live around the ocean.

It was time to make use of my colour drawing pen so as to bring out the colors of the penguin bird.

Since the flippers was black and it was the first point I started my drawing, so I use black colored pen to colour it.

When I was done coloring the flippers, I proceeded in colouring the mouth, the feet, and the sun, since they are all yellow.

At this point, I was done with the penguin, but I needed to make the background beautiful which is to indicate that is an ocean.

So I used a envy blue colour pen to colour the down ocean and I use the sky blue to colour the sky.

So if you look closely, you will see the ocean part, the sky and a sun.

So guys here I end my drawing of penguin.

I will love to invite my friends for the contest, @eliany, @goodybest and m-fdo
