'Barn Owl' - Watercolour on paper by Joseph Witchall
'Barn Owl' - Detail
I have just finished my latest commissioned piece, a Beautiful Barn owl, one of the most elegant birds in the air. I very much enjoyed creating the detail in the feather patterns and the addition of the mosey, hunk of wood for the perch. I hope my client likes it and that it goes to a good home.

That's fantastic work man, you put Don Conroy to shame. I saw a barn owl once, considering I spent my childhood running around the countryside this must be some kind of record.
ReplyDeleteThat's really impressive watercolor work, so very lifelike. I had one of those swoop low over the garden recently while I was outside one evening I was surprised both by the quietness of it's flight and it's large size.
