Great Horned Owl


Number 13. 


This one took a bit of extra work trying to fix mistakes. When I did the blue wash, I did a bit too much so there isn't as much negative space. The silk got a little weak during the contour inking and shading because sometimes I forgot to put books up underneath the silk to give it strength. However, I feel the detail of the owl and the beautiful white color of the gouache strengthen the piece. My younger brother claimed this one.
