A simple flat owl with a folded brow and wings spread out to the sides, in eight steps. Draw the eyes and beak at the end to bring it to life.
Start with the white side up, turned like a diamond. Fold the bottom corner up to the top corner.
Fold the top point of the front layer down a little.
Fold it down once more. This is the owl's brow.
Fold the top point behind, level with the brow.
Fold the right corner up and across, on a line from just right of the middle of the bottom edge to the side of the head.
Fold the same flap back out to the right. This is the right wing.
Fold the left corner up and across the same way.
Fold it back out to the left. This is the left wing.
Draw two big round eyes and a beak under the brow. Your owl is done.
