Owl painting


Owl

6" x 8"
Acrylic and colored pencil on watercolor board


Shocked? a bird all intact with feathers and everything! This was my weekend project, and it was so nice to break out my colored pencils again... I think they will always be my first and true love... but there's no getting them smooth on cold press watercolor board! I really liked mixing the paint and pencils so I shall now be investigating supports that will work with both... any suggestions?

  1. this is rich! i could see it as a greeting card! look into water color pencils. the color can be pulled and manipulated with a brush.
