Parrot in a Rope Ring Coloring Page

About this page

Framed inside a large hanging ring made of twisted rope, a parrot perches on the lower part of the loop with its feet wrapped around the cord. The rope comes down from the top of the page, ties in a knot at the upper left of the ring, and has two more knots lower on each side. The bird faces right with its crest up, an open smile and a long tail dangling below the ring. The twisted rope is drawn with diagonal strokes, which makes it a good texture to color. The circular frame fills most of the page, and the parrot sits neatly inside it. This medium page works well for kids who like tidy, centered compositions and want a strong border to color.
