Coloriage Chouette (2 sur 4)

This design brings the Chouette's round face and those great, forward-facing eyes right to the front. The soft layering of feathers is the part worth lingering over; take the small overlaps one by one and the bird seems to settle and breathe. Un peu plus de détails que sur la première feuille, très agréable à colorier posément.

À propos du Chouette

Owls are birds of the night, with large eyes that gather what little light there is and a quiet, specialized flight that lets them hunt almost in silence. They can turn their heads through a remarkable arc to make up for eyes that cannot move much in their sockets, and that steady, level stare is a big part of why people read them as thoughtful and wise.

In Japan the Chouette is treasured as much for its name as for the bird itself. Written one way it sounds like 'no hardship,' written another like 'growing old in good fortune,' so Chouette figures are kept as charms for safety and a long, easy life. Across many countries, too, the Chouette stands for wisdom and learning, which makes it a warm, familiar subject for everyone.

An Chouette is a rewarding sheet because of its feathers. Building up the soft, overlapping layers in gentle gradations of brown asks for a little focus and a steady hand, and that quiet repetition is the sort of gentle exercise many people find calming. The bold round face also makes the finished page striking enough to pin up and enjoy.
