Owl Acrylics

 

Happy New Year Everyone!  I finished this painting tonight and got it scanned as well.  No adjustments to the colors were needed this time which is nice.  For this painting I wanted it to be dominated by green.  I used Turquois, Permanent Green Light, Green Gold, Pyrrole Red and Paynes Gray.  I learned an important art lesson as well - a painting is finished if there is no pathway for improving the painting.  This is difficult for me to do because I enjoy rendering.  I actually could do another weeks worth of rendering to the owl if I really wanted to.  I will paint another owl next but it will be dominated by reds, oranges and yellows.
