I'm glad I was able to gather enough material to work on another Avian Faces Series painting dedicated to an owl, the Boobook Owl, Ninox Novaeseelandiae. I see owls' faces as some of the most expressive in the avian world and the four represented here are only a few among the wide subtle range I could see.
In this post, I would also like to share the interview that Jenica Smith released on her website.
Also, for those who are interested in buying prints, at last, after the originals I sold, I have selected 8 paintings which are now being scanned and will soon become prints. I'm planning to open my Etzy shop within next week, finger crossed!
All the best

Hi, Matteo,
ReplyDeleteVery lovely and sensitive! (Owls can teach me how to wink) You've got to tell us how to make masterpieces everytime!
Cheers,Sadami

ReplyDeleteI just love how you painted it.
The owls are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour owl studies are charming and quite lovely. I'll keep an eye out for your new Etsy shop - best of luck with it. I'm sure you'll do very well. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very very much everybody.
ReplyDeletewonderful owl studies, I recently painted an eagle owl - nowhere near as good as yours! they have such amazing eyes - it's good to see you start with the eyes - straight to the soul of the painting!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sharon, it's very nice of you.
