Welcome to Sunday Sketches, hosted as always by Alexandra! I did an owl in my (9" x 12") sketchbook today, in watercolour crayon. I was inspired by a photo of a pearl spotted owl but gave up on the feather details. Aren't the eyes stunning though, eerie how human they look.
Wow, it's already going to be February tomorrow.

It's wonderful how you have captured the spirit of wisdom and prudence in the owl's eyes and I love it how you drew the smooth feathers.
What a fantastic owl! I do love his eyes! I think the implied details are great!
Those eyes feel like they're looking right at me! Great job.
Great owl. I love owls. When I was teaching, I collected them as the yearbook for the school is called The Owl. I was the advisor for the class so I had the room filled with owls.
thank you for sharing this gift
good looking owl.
I love owls and this look perfect Christine :) :)
Christine I have really enjoyed your birds and wild animals series of sketches this past week. The soft realistic colourings have made them look so lifelike - and the eyes have been stunning. Thank you
Take care
