    Worked on this painting in my Monday afternoon art class and at home for two weeks. It was a challenge to myself to see if I could capture his wonderful pattern of feathers and the look in his eyes.

    Paper: Waterford Saunders 140 lb cold pressed
    Size: 10.25″ x 14.50″
    Paints: all artist grade: Ultramarine Blue; Mars red; Aussie gold; Raw umber; Van Dyke brown;

    Comments and critiques invited (for the next painting’s use). :D

            A lovely pose Sylvia, seems to be wrapped against the cold.

                    A good one, Sylvia. Lots of small shapes and textures.

                                    Really nice, Sylvia. The feathers and the bulk of the owl are so well done.
