It’s been a while since I last posted images of a work in progress and the steps to a finished painting.  I recently finished this painting of a barn owl.  I’ve had barn owls on the mind a lot.  In fact, the creative powers that be have been sending me all sorts of messages and hints in this direction.  So I followed the creative flow with this as the result.  I will add that my first attempt was a total “crash and burn” leaving me in some doubts as to whether or not it was something I could do.  However, I pulled up my “big girl pants” and paints to give it another go, with happier results!
