Coloring tips for this owl printable
- Start with the large eyes first. A bright ring around the pupils can make the owl look alert and friendly.
- Use two close shades on the round feathers so the body keeps a soft, even look without losing the zentangle detail.
- Make the patterned wings darker than the chest area to give the owl a clear shape and stronger contrast.
- Add a small accent color on the decorative forehead to draw attention to the top of the face.
- If you use markers, test your paper first because the bold outline and medium whitespace invite strong color coverage.
