| 5×5″ on Wood. $95 each DISCOVER (Left). SHARE YOUR TRUTH (SOLD). Prints and Originals available in my etsy shop. |
i don’t often paint owls these days, but something in me was just calling out to paint some new whimsical owls. these are the first that have a little bit of the new techniques and colors i’ve been using. i’m kind of loving just a splash of red and pink neon!
for each owl i used every art supply i’ve been collecting in my studio…water soluble oil pastels, watercolors, acrylics, india ink, alcohol inks, vintage wallpaper, book pages, and glitter! on top i applied a vintage decoupage that gave each painting a lovely warm hue. then i added a layer of wax for a protective, matte finish.

This white owl is all taking time to smell the flowers and walk slowly, knowing that in all of the little things there is so much to DISCOVER.

Lately I’ve been going back to painting owls. For awhile I had been creating these very renaissance-style portraits with soft, realistic faces and incredible hair. I enjoyed that I could make them look very human, but still full of magic and color. While I still adore creating these flower girls, I found that these paintings were missing something. After countless attempts in the studio, many... Continue reading
