2. Next, using the orange face paint and the round brush, paint the shape of the owl. You can do this by painting an vertical oval for the body. Paint a horizontal oval overlapping the first oval, on top. Then paint two triangle pointed shapes on top. Add three tick marks for each foot of the owl, going over the tree branch.

3. Now add two big white circle for the eyes, and two green wings on each side of the owl. You’ll want to overlap the orange a little, so you may want to add an additional coat to the green for a good, bright coverage.

4. Using the white, add small teardrop shapes on each of the wings. Add zig zag shapes going across the chest. Add a little white to the branch and any place you would like to add highlights.

5. To finish, taking the small round brush and outline the entire design. Go around the outside of the shape. Add additional zig zag shapes along the white. Add two dots for the eyes. For an even sillier look, have the eyeballs go in different directions!
