A Look into my Sketch Book
My inspiration for owl sketches is the LIVE feed where the mama owl is sitting on her nest in a hollowed out tree. Click here to see for yourself Audubon California Starr Ranch Live Feed. (There isn’t a lot of action during the day. Mom is a night owl.)
Aeeeeeeeeeda,
Try looking at a picture and draw with your left hand – look more at the picture than at your drawing. Trust me, the more you do it the better you get. More importantly, it’s fun cuz you know it can’t be a good likeness/a perfect picture NO MATTER what you do so the inner critic sulks in the corner.
I click on mama owl periodically and see her get on and off the leg, leave the nest for food. Otherwise, it’s sometimes watching a pot of water boil!
Sue,
We should meet somewhere at midnight . . . well, maybe 8:30 pm . . . my peak hour keeps sinking as I grow older (that’s not the only thing that keeps sinking).
Judy, that’s really good for you left hand? You are an ARTIST regardless which hand is doing the drawing. Will ck in with mama owl tonight.
