Cute Barn Owl

Meet this gentle barn owl, a quiet nighttime bird with a beautiful heart-shaped face, soft layered wings, a small hooked beak and strong feet for holding its woodland perch. Children can colour the back and wings golden tan, honey brown or warm grey, then add small darker brown speckles if they wish. Keep the heart-shaped face white or pale cream, use soft beige on the chest, grey-brown on the tail, yellow or light tan on the beak, and pale grey on the claws. Colour the branch warm brown, the leaves fresh green, the flowers in bright shades, the stones warm grey, the moon pale yellow, and the clouds light blue or lavender. Work slowly inside the bold lines, leave tiny white eye highlights, and add stars, moths or fireflies in the open spaces.
