Owl with Daisy Eyes on a Branch, Sugar Skull Style

A front-facing owl sits on a leafy branch, its big round eyes drawn as daisy-style flowers with a small circle in the center and a ringed border around each one. Curved feather-like brows meet above a small beak, topped with a fan-shaped flourish. The chest is filled with a scale pattern of small overlapping teardrop shapes, and each wing has layered feathers with a curled tip and a rose with leaves near the bottom. Sharp talons grip the branch, and a fan of tail feathers hangs below. Swirls, leaves and two little spiral flowers frame the whole design. Try coloring the eye petals in alternating bright shades, then keep the chest scales in two or three soft colors so the pattern stands out. This printable page suits older kids and teens who enjoy fine detail, and it works well for a Día de Muertos art lesson.
