About these pages
Birds drawn with layered feathers and patterned backgrounds: a peacock fanning its tail among butterflies, a bald eagle portrait, a patterned eagle spreading its wings among stars and a hummingbird sipping from marigold flowers. Owls fill most of the page, including a great horned owl on a branch, a zentangle owl with swirling feathers, an owl on a maple leaf branch, a mandala owl with a crescent moon and stars and an owl perched among holly leaves. A symmetrical rangoli with twin peacocks and a crested bird on a flowering branch complete the set.
All 23 pages are detailed, so allow a few hours for each. Feathers look most natural built up in layers: a pale base, a middle tone stroked in the direction the feathers grow, then darker tips. A fine liner can sharpen outlines at the end. For more, see the owl pages, the bird pages and the animal pages for adults.
Each design is its own page with a Letter and an A4 PDF, a description, and related pages, so you can print one sheet or a whole set.
Questions
What colours are on a peacock's tail feathers?
Each long feather ends in an eye spot with a deep blue centre, rings of turquoise and bronze, then green and gold at the edge. Layer blues and greens and leave tiny white gaps for the shimmer.
What colours is a bald eagle?
An adult has a dark brown body and wings, a white head and tail, and a yellow beak and feet. The white head only appears at around four or five years old; younger eagles are mottled brown.
How do hummingbirds feed?
They hover in front of a flower and lap up nectar with a long, forked tongue, many times a second. Their wings beat so fast, often around 50 times a second, that they make a humming sound.
Can I print on A4 paper?
Yes. Every page has a Letter and an A4 version. Pick the one that matches your printer.
