Description

I've started this painting some time ago, for my little daughter, which likes owls so much, I don't know where she came from with this, because she's not even 3 years old yet, but she really likes them. So this is a baby owl for her, and also for the kittyKat 's contest, "The eternal bird-contest".
I hope you like it :)

I love the eyes, very deep. Overall a really cool piece. My only crit would be it seems that the background is very 'flat' to the owl, like it lacks a little depth, maybe some more tones, and blue in the further bacgkround would counter-act this.

Great work!

I've never understood the 'wise Owl' thing...I mean they're pretty goofy looking critters really aren't they...and you've caught that goofiness perfectly....

...I agree with CloudBurst about the background, the owl looks a little pasted on...but still a great character piece.

haha sooooo amazingly cute! Cute chubbiness! Lovely!!! X3
I dunno how you did it and maybe it's just me, but this owl looks like it'd have some human qualities XD Like it would be a "special owl" or something, haha I dunno! I'm really digging the piece :) And the eyes are beautifully shaded :)

Thank you all for you nice comments, friends. Means a lot to me :)
And you are right about the background, maybe it's a little flat, but I'll tell you a secret, My first thought was not to make any background at all, and then I said that maybe something looking like a shadow of a dark forest would just give to the picture more atmosphere. So I did this.
