Today we worked on owls using charcoals and oil pastels. We focused on the huge eyes of the owl and added feathers and beaks. We tried to use a variety of strokes to create the soft texture and used lots of finger movements to blend the colours together. We focused on control in using charcoals by lifting our hands off the sheet and drawing in big sweeping strokes from our shoulder and wrist. We wanted to create blurred lines and less definition and colour was keep to only one feature of the owl! The finished artwork was superb!
