Sea Turtle from Above with Spiral Tile Border

A sea turtle is seen from above, with its head pointing up and all four flippers stretched out to the sides. The shell is built from rings of pattern. A border of small square tiles, each with a spiral inside, runs around the outside edge. Inside that sits a layer of rounded, wavy shapes, and then a second ring of spiral squares frames an oval center. That center is split into uneven sections filled with straight lines fanning out from a point. The head and flippers have their own designs too, with curved lines on the head and fan-shaped lines on the flippers. The tiny sections suit older kids, teens, and adults who like fine-tipped pens or colored pencils. Try giving each ring of the shell its own color family, such as blues and greens for the wavy layers and warm shades for the spiral border. The page is free to print, and it works well for a quiet afternoon or an ocean unit.
