Hi all

I posted one the other day but it got deleted somehow. Anyway, this is what I worked on today. I think it is done but any c&c is welcome.

It is 16 x 20 oil on canvas

Re: Great Grey Owl

I think owls are one of the hardest creatures to paint...don't know why I think so but you did an excellent job on this!

Very nice! I like your colors and that you did not make the background just black!

Nicely done!

I love owls but at the same time, also find them difficult to paint convincingly. For me that darn cryptic plumage often does me in.
