wow, if these are your first owl paintings, I give up
lol
beautiful expressive work, and I suppose you are going to tell me how quick they were too.
I could spend three weeks and not get them so wonderfully alive and captured.
I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you search out that artist I mentioned in the other comment. If you can't find anything I have a huge book (yes a book) here of his bird paintings. I could take a few snapshots of some of the pages, they are an incredible tour de force.
Your ability to capture expressions reminds me of him, even though the style is different.
until another moment
big hugs
Thank you again @spaingaroo, well i must admit, work hasn't been soo fast :) First drawing has to be done, and I leave layers of watercolor to dry, sometimes over night, because watercolor is fast but not that much. And if you are working on papers as I am, 300gr and more, they don't dry that fast to see full range of color.
