Night Watch

Night Watch 2010

Watercolour on Paper

The Barn Owl has to be one of my top listed inspiring animals.  As to me there quite charming to look as well as rabbits :) The owl itself having connotations of knowledge and wisdom being a creature of the night. These creatures are very magical, especially in flight as they reflect the moonlight from there white feathers.  I've given a mixture for the background behind as i wanted to have a contrast between light and dark tones giving a sense of depth and atmosphere by highlighting the magical aspects of the barn owl in the drawing.
