- In this oil painting tutorial I’ll show you how to paint a bird. I've never painted a bird up-close, so this was a really interesting tutorial for me. You'll see what oil colours and paintbrushes I use to add feather details to a bird, and how I use my oil painting technique to make the bird look photorealistic.
I’m a professional landscape artist with over 20 years of experience in oil painting. My TH-cam Channel is dedicated to helping people learn how to paint in oils. I really believe that everyone can learn how to paint!

THANKS FOR WATCHING! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Michael, your ‘blocked in’ is most people’s finished painting...then you take it to a whole new level...magic.
Yet me too I've got one just like this too. I might get some of those fine detail brushes for finishing off
That little bird came to life right in front of my eyes. So beautiful!!
Definitely the best work/teaching I've seen on YT. That bird looks so real, it's just so amazing to me.
Wow! Anymore detail and it'll fly away!! Well done chap!
who needs a camera with this incredible artist's abilities? Magnificent.
Excellent as usual! The bird looks so natural and true to life - brilliant. Thanks Michael for posting.
As an ornithologist (as well as artist) I was checking your painting for anatomical detail and I could not fault it. It is right up there with the works of renowned bird artists, such as Chris Rose, Ian Lewington, Lars Jonsson and even Charles Tunnicliffe. You could easily get a second job as a bird illustrator. Very well done, Michael.
I'd have been so chuffed if I'd created the underpainting. And then you went and done that!
Simply amazing!!!
WOW, such vivid detail.....absolutely amazing to watch you work.....
Боже, это божественно!! Не описать словами, это невероятный талант. Вот это искусство, вот это я понимаю, а не современная чепуха.
Снимаю шляпу перед Вами.
Wow, you simply amaze me at how you can get such realism. Bravo!
Absolutey blown away by the realism. Even the branch the bird is sitting on made me stare at for quite a while. Wonderful.
Your first painting of the Robin is fantatisic it's so beautiful . The robin was the very first sketch drawing i did when i was a child at school with no help or training in art class . My art teacher put my drawing into the art compition . I had no chance of winning due to the high quality standards in Art . I did won the Art compition in 1st place . I was truly lost for words. but now after watching your video this has made me think of doing an updated version in oil paint . I really enjoy watching you painting the classic Robin . Thank you for giving us the information on types of paints and brushes you use . Thank you it's really helpful
This an amazing Robin painting Michael. As a bird artist (in watercolour though), I can fully appreciate the amount of time and effort something like this can take. Very clever work indeed! Paul 🧑🎨
Whoa, that's William T. Cooper attention to detail right off the bat. Michael, that's the highest praise I can give.
Absolutely astounding Micheal I have never seen a better bird painting, you are the man.
Magically!
Michael James You are a magician!
You have such a keen eye to see everything in its natural form and color to create magnificent pieces.
It’s so engaging watching your bird come to life. Thank you for sharing. Love your art.
All your videos have been a great pleasure to watch, sometimes again and again. They have inspired me to pick up my brushes and paints again after an absence of about five years (too many pressing family matters). My paintings were always very detailed too, yet I was discouraged from painting "tight" as it was called, by other artists. I did not listen to them, though. I'm sorry to say that I will be missing many of your future demos because today I am moving away to the woods in a very rustic part of Wisconsin, USA, across the road from a huge wildlife preserve. There is no coverage, at least for now, so no internet, no cable, no cell service. The trees, the waters, and the animals will provide lots of inspiration and peace of mind. Thanks for being a TH-cam "friend".
When the painter is lying..
It's not a painting..
It's an actual bird..
Wow! Seriously.. the painting is gorgeous.. almost looks you've placed an actual lil birdie out there..
hats off ❤️🙌
Thank you for sharing! I love the birds and i love your painting!
Amazing!! I can't believe it's the first time. Wow!!
PLEASE put this on a t-shirt or mug!! I would purchase this in a heartbeat!! ♥️
I would watch the entire slowed version of this, no need to speed it up. Thanks for your instruction, and time you take to teach others! It is greatly appreciated!
Still the King of detail! You are totally amazing.
You’ve taken me to look deeper into my paintings. Your direct simple approach to painting teaches me to change my approach. You’re kind of like my lightbulb. I’m just starting to add more depth and detail and am enjoying the journey. I’ve quite a ways to go but then I’m hungry. Thank you
Молодец!!! Восхищаюсь Вашими работами!!!
Never ceases to amaze! Fabulous painting.
YES, YOU'VE NAILED IT AGAIN. MAGNIFICENT.
Nothing less than I expected!
Thank you Michael.
Unbelievable attention to detail! This is absolutely magnificent!
OMG. never seen before like that kind of detail. sir, you are a paint magician.
Absolutely painstakingly incredible!! Such a joy to watch you paint. I hope to have the time to devote to art again and when i do, I will definitely be joining your school.
This is beautiful work. I often sit in my backyard and watch my goldfinches and want to paint them. You have inspired me. THank you!
Stunning work as usual, sir. You are a legend.
A wonderful feeling I have made me hope to come back again to paint after years of having to leave art
LOVE that one!
Amazing! I'd love to see more birds and animals by you! They are just as amazing as your landacapes
Какая красота, БРАВО !!!
Beautiful!! You inspire me!! Thank you 💕
Michael, great work once again.you are unbelievable.top shelf Fran
Michael..you never cease to amaze !
Вы Волшебник ! Браво !!!
Gorgeous painting. Thank you for sharing your technique for creating this photorealistic subject matter. I love birds. Being an enrolled student in your online school, you've opened yet another door for future subject matter. I highly recommend the school to anyone who wants to learn how to paint or hone their skills.
Thank you...this really helps with my bird paintings. I’ll try the rigger brush and thinning my paint for those wonderful feathers. I’m starting my Christmas cardinal for this coming Christmas and I think this video will make a big difference in how I work the painting.
This blows me away. Indistinguishable from the photo.. Magic!
Beautiful, such talent and patience.
Ual ! Muito lindo ..... Sonho em pintar como vc! Fantástico
Well, what can I say, that is just amazing!
For your 1st time painting up close, you did an amazing work.
Absolutely amazing!! Love your paintings
The way you pay attention to detail is touching, Master.
sem palavras, no words!
It's like real,such intricate detailing,simply great.Somuch of patience and deep observation required for such beautiful work.
Super. I like it when painters paint and draw in detail. This makes the image more vivid. You can see the important color, shadow and light plays. A dream for the eye and your own romantic well-being. 👍
respect for your patience the artist and thank you.
Oh my god that’s incredible. 👏
This is so realistic that it looks like a photograph! Wow!
Love watching your work, fabulous.
Wow wow and wow!!! Beautiful!

Bravo! You are continuing the chain of knowledge
Beautiful work. Excellent details. Almost like a picture.
Absolutely beautiful!
Beside being an amazing artist you are also a wonderful teacher with great humor and wonderful relaxing speaking voice.
I love your technique. Amazing bird
It already looked pretty good with the first layer! very impressive!!
Wow! Lovely!
Wow wow wow 👍
You can also draw a bird so lively other than landscape! So awesome! 👍😊
Realmente hermoso!!!
Man, you are simply wonderful.
WOW! It looks more realistic than any painting I’ve ever seen!
Michael, this is stunning.
WOW. Picture perfect.
Precious! Thank you so much for your tutorials 🙏
Beautiful work! I would have loved to see your paint palette included in your video. Thank you for sharing!
Wow ! That's a realistic painting!
Hermoso. Felicitaciones. Gracias por compartir
This was gorgeous! With all the attention to detail you apply to your landscapes, this seems an easy transition for you to begin painting the fauna of nature as well. Had you ever tried doing birds before? It's picture perfect! Well done!
You have such a gift for detail, I think you'd be just as great at painting animals as well. Thanks for taking the chance of painting outside your comfortable landscape box. You make everything so realistic and I've always been drawn to realism. As ever, keep up the great work! We all totally enjoy watching.
Just WOW.. That is just amazing.
Wow I really enjoyed it!! Such a cute bird and such a talented Artist! Love this Work! I will try this tomorrow 💗
Absolutely stunning mate

A stunning artist.
Love to see this one in your class!
Superb work Michael......you’re a top man!
So beautiful your painting, thanks for sharing, I love birds.
That’s quite insane detailwork 😳😁
Awesome Michael!!
One can hardly tell from the original and the painting, very well blended in.
You............. Are a genius, that stunningly beautiful painting looked as if he could just fly off.
I mean it's rare that I'm rendered speechless for the right reasons but this is truly one of those rarest of times.
Everyone I showed the still to where convinced it was a beautifully taken photograph.. Your eye for detail is breathtaking.
The wee overhang right on the tip of the beak, the perfect eye and those little delicate feet....... Well...... Its just amazing talent.
Of course I'm subscribing, there is nothing that gladens me more than seeing someone creating beautiful things.
Thank you.
