Painted owl

I was invited to join the painted owl tracker. I was excited to hand paint my owl. I used water colors on the tree. (The actual carve has a tree wrapped around the owl.)  I used ink blocks to paint the owl and acrylic paint to give a dimension to the eyes. Since every step had to dry individually, I coated each area with liquitex satin varnish after it was dry. Once complete the entire card was coated with liquitex high gloss varnish.
