Kimono Girl Holding a Paper Fan, with Doves

A girl with big sparkly eyes stands in a long kimono covered in blossom patterns, holding a folded paper fan in one hand while her other arm stretches out to the side. Her dark hair is pinned up with a crown of round flowers and long dangling strands on one side. Two birds fly in the upper left corner, and behind her a half sun with rays rises over rolling hills. Small flowers and a tuft of grass dot the ground. The kimono has wide sleeves, a patterned sash with a bow, and lots of flower shapes that make nice small spaces for detail. Try coloring the sky and sun in warm sunrise shades, then give each kimono flower a different color. This free printable works well for older kids who enjoy fine detail work, or for a lesson about traditional clothing in Japan.
