Close ups


This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Lin was the great host. Thanks for the terrific reference photos, Lin.
Here's a barn owl in oil on a 6x6 canvas panel.
I had fun pushing the color, laying the paint on thickly, and inventing a background.
Thanks for looking!

John 14:11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.
Once my Mom and I saw a snowy owl fly out of a barn window right over our heads. It was awesome...huge like a B2 bomber but completely silent! I'll always remember that...this painting captures the magnificence of a totally gorgeous bird
