Birds
Hi little artist! Today we are going to draw a barn owl, which you can recognize by its beautiful heart-shaped face. Grab your pencil and eraser, because we are going to work step by step. Look closely at the shapes and join in the fun!
1
A vertical oval with a line through the middle for the owl's head.
Draw a vertical oval for the head and put a guide line in the middle.
2
Basic shapes for the body and tail of the barn owl below the head.
Draw a larger shape below the head for the body and determine where the tail will go.
3
Lines for the legs and small circles for the eyes in the head.
Draw two lines for the legs and place small circles where the eyes should go.
4
The heart shape of the face and the contours of the owl's upper legs.
Now create the shape of the heart-shaped face and draw the thick feathers at the thighs.
5
Details of the beak, legs, and tail feathers become visible.
Draw the beak between the eyes and make the legs and tail a bit thicker.
6
Drawing of the owl's legs with claws and round black eyes.
Draw the sharp claws at the bottom of the legs and make the eyes dark.

Details of the feathers on the wings and body of the barn owl.
Add small dashes everywhere for the soft feathers on the wings and belly.

Trace the outer lines extra thick, erase the guide lines, and draw a branch with it.
