I love owls. I can’t believe it’s never occurred to me to draw one before. OK, so it’s not that unbelievable – I rarely draw animals. Now I’m thinking owls might need to become a regular subject, because they are so much fun to look at.
Again the idea with this drawing was to stay a little loose and expressive, and to leave some areas undefined. The completionist in me has a hard time stopping at a point when there are still undefined areas, even though I can appreciate and enjoy this style in other people’s work.
Incredibly IMPRESSIVE. This is one subject you really MUST revisit, because you drew that owl so well.
Thank you! I just remembered I have a stash of owl photos from a visit to a falconry – must dig them out for inspiration.
I too love owls! They are mysterious and powerful to me. I have drawn many, and will soon be painting them. Your drawing is beautiful! I hope to see more owl drawings.
Aren’t they amazing? I could look at owls all day long.
