Description A3

A christmas present for my aunt.
Not completely happy with this, the photograph didn't do it any justice either!
I rushed it a little bit in the end and i know the grass is crap... i got lazy...

The way it is drawn here makes it look like the owl is caught in a blizzard or some sort of high wind. I would have loved perhaps to see specks of snow on the grass, which would add detail, while giving a picture another story to go with, especially considering the time of year it was made for.

All in all, well done and an interesting take on the subject!

This is beautiful it works better with the composition that you didn't paint all of the grass

Aww. I like it. Barn owls are really cool, and this one is no exception. I love how you did the shading. Everything looks beautifully traditional. c:
