2016 Day 11

My piece today is a Quilled painting.
Quilled Owl
The owl is 4.5 x 5.25 inches made with 1/8" quilling paper and mounted in an 8 x 10 mat. I worked on this piece off and on for 4 days. This is my second quilled painting and a valuable learning experience.

September Challenge Day 29

I wasn't sure that I would be able to complete today's card. I made the mistake of spending too long working in the garden the other day and my right hand has been swollen from too much pruning and work with the trowel. However, by only doing a little bit at a time and resting my hand between sessions, I was able to finish this piece.
Great Horned Owl
On this 5 x 7 pen & ink with watercolor card, I used Reader's Digest "Book of North American Birds" as my reference. It was a tricky drawing with WAY too many feathers - lol.

Now I am off to my studio to figure out what to draw for the final day of the challenge!
