New Art 8x10 Mixed Media Canvas- The Owl Family

The first 2 photos are how this canvas started.

 So awful (in my opinion) but you have to go

thru the ugly phase to get to the end result. 

 

Below are the paper owls at the beginning,

cut out of patterned scrapbook  paper. 

I found templates online (Pinterest - love, love, love) 

for various Owls and modified them to make them my own.

Here are close-ups of the individual Owls.

 

And then the final piece.  Not my favorite piece but it was fun.

 

And of course I didn't realize the photos were

a tab blurry until uploading today, sorry.  You get the idea.  :)

Melody Blue Owl - New Art on Canvas

 Happy 2013 Everyone!  I have taken a much needed break from doing too much over the last few months.  Work has been too busy, home life too busy and the holidays....well, you guessed it.  Too busy!!  I took a vacation from work and life to spend 2.5 weeks at home with my kids.  they are 15 and 18 yrs old now, they will be off on their own before I know it.  It was a lazy, sleep late, movie watching, book reading, game playing, shopping, organizing and crafting vacation.  Lots of quality time with the kids which was a just perfect.

 

One of the things I did was some new artwork.  This is the first in a set of 3 new pieces.

This one is called Melody Blue Owl.  She is listed for sale in my Etsy shop.
