Description

"...an owl is not poor. Not poor and not rich. He does not collect and does not lavish, he's just simply: an owl. A bird which has everything as long as he's healthy and free; has nothing when he's sick; and has only a sad and closed life when he's a captive." (István Fekete)

Asio otus (A4)
Done with watercolor

I changed my mind so many times about how I would like to finish the picture, finally I decided to try a dry-brush technique...kind of xD…and poor guy’s face got a little overworked because I couldn’t stop myself in the right time.
My first watercolour painting in about 7 years.

Reference used (a book presenting the bird species of Hungary)
