Grandpa's Swirly Glasses Portrait

Grandpa looks right at us with calm eyes behind big square glasses. He wears a snug knit cap with wavy stripes and little leaf shapes. Swirly lines cover his cheeks and nose like tiny snail trails. His mouth rests in a gentle, quiet line.

Curves loop over his ears and hair, then slide into the wide collar of his shirt. Every part holds patterns: spirals on his chin, waves in the hat, and leafy shapes on his shoulders. He sits still, listening, as if story time will begin. Bold black lines make neat spaces ready for bright crayons.

Fun Fact!

The first computer mouse was invented in the 1960s and was made of wood.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Use one color family for the face swirls, then switch families for the hat to make it pop.
  2. 2 Blend two crayon shades in each spiral: start dark at the edge, fade to light in the center.
  3. 3 Give the glasses shiny frames with a metallic gel pen or a bold black outline.
  4. 4 Try a rainbow knit cap: paint each wavy stripe a different color for a cozy, bright look.
