About this Pirate Hello Kitty coloring page
A wide pirate hat, a striped coat, a parrot on one side and a chest on the other. The parrot is the one place in the whole collection where every colour at once is correct.
How to color Pirate Hello Kitty
- Colour the coat and hat in dark navy, keeping the stripes if there are any.
- Give the chest a wood brown with brass bands across it.
- red and green Make the parrot as bright as you can, red, green and yellow together.
Everything here is muted browns and reds except the parrot. Let it be as loud as you like; that contrast is the drawing.
Things to know about Pirate Hello Kitty
- Parrots on pirates' shoulders come almost entirely from Treasure Island, published in 1883, rather than from any historical record.
- Real pirate crews did trade in parrots, because a bird from the Caribbean sold well in a European port.
What is the difference between the two pirate drawings?
This one has a parrot and a treasure chest. The other pirate page puts her in an eye patch with a skull on the hat and a ship on the horizon.
