Hoot Hoot! my pastel owls

I thought I was tired of painting birds….. I had painted about 50 of them in watercolor. But I was missing them! So I decided to give the birds a try in pastel with an underpainting of Artisan water mixed oil paint. My goal is to be more expressive with the pastel rather than painting every detail as I tried to do with watercolors.

Owls were always my favorite  to paint…..their eyes always a fascination to me. So I painted more.
