Barn Owl

Postby booklover789 » Sun Sep 22, 2013 11:08 am

Timer-lies-by-around-20-minutes.

Considering I haven't drawn ANYTHING even LIKE birds since 2011*, I think I did pretty good. I'm actually really pleased with this. I am ESPECIALLY pleased with the tree - the bark looks great. X) The Barn Owl turned out well, too. I particularly like his beak and wing...and body structure...and pretty much everything. Really, I think this is my BEST bird artwork yet.

*Back in 2011, I attempted to draw a head-shot of a gryphon. I was just learning how to use the Oekaki, and...let's just say it didn't go too well. Looking back on that, I realize how much I've improved. Feel free to take a look yourself - but be warned: it's pretty bad.

I really like it! You did awesome on the colors and her hair and the backround! But I've got one question: Why is the signature so big? Not trying to sound rude or anything, just wondering...

I don't want art theft. I always do a darker and larger sig ontop of the others so I'm COMPLETELY covered. If someone DOES decide to steal it, they would have to remove the sig. Which is harder than it sounds.

Yeah, I've gotten that a lot. X) But I still keep 'em on my pics. Protects 'em a bit more.

Anyway, glad you guys like it! :) After working so hard, it's nice to get some appreciation.

I’m dealing with extensive medical issues and some medical testing to try to figure out said issues. If I am scarce on here, that's why.
