Hello, Monday!

I had a great weekend: on Saturday, we (aka my husband) were able to get my scanner up and running so I can turn these drawings into prints, and I started getting the original drawings up in my Etsy store. Yesterday my youngest and I went to my hometown to visit with my bestie from grade school and her son and surprised my parents with a quick visit as well.

I did miss drawing, though, and was very much looking forward to getting back to it today!

Title: Barred Owl

Size: 5×7

Medium: Graphite pencil and white ink gel pen on acid free paper

Inspired/nominated by: I originally put an owl on the list, but it was also nominated by my friend Marie B!

Favorite Parts: His face, for sure! The eyes, the beak, the feathers around his eyes.

Complicated Parts: Getting the feathers on the belly to cooperate! They had distinct black lines down the center of them, but were still very light, subtle and fluffy.

Product Availability: The original is available for purchase here in my Etsy shop. Prints will be coming soon.

What is your favorite kind of owl?
