Baby Barn Owl

This quick little sketch in my art journal is a baby barn owl. I made it to test out the Stabilo Woody pencil (crayon-like). I love owls! I'm not sure about the woody, but I couldn't live without my black Stabilo All pencil!

Short hair girl

I made this girl for an altered book swap. It's on recycled paper (order form for Edward R Hamilton book seller) and I used a black Stabilo all pencil, gesso, a small amount of thio violet acrylic paint, and a brown Stabilo all pencil for the hair.

My son said, "that's a girl?" Yes son, girls can have short hair.

Carol Long Mandala vase

I am addicted to Carol Long's pottery, and she gave me permission to paint several of her pieces.
