For my second concentration piece i decided that i would like to do an owl because one, they are my most favorite bird, and two, i am pretty good at drawing them out so that would not be a problem. I decided i wanted to do a owl flying so that you would be able to see all the detailing in every single one of the feathers, something that you would not be able to see if the owl was just sitting on a branch or flying at a side angle for example. I first drew out the owl in pencil first so anything that i would need to erase could be removed . Then i proceeded to pen in all of the detailing on the owl and the shading. I always have a problem with the fact that after i draw out the animal i never know what i am go thing to do for the background. I kept thinking about rolling hills and mountains in the background because that kind of what i always think of when i think of owls but that seemed like a pretty boring background so i decided to do a small town nestled in the rolling hills with a lake in front of it which i did in pen as well. the hard part on this project was actually doing the background because the detailing had to be so tiny and small it was hard to get shading in on something that small. My favorite part of the entire piece actually turned out to be the small town in the background however because i was really happy with how the lake turned out and the shading in the lake was nice and i am just overall pretty pleased with it. This has actually been my favorite piece of work that i have done so far i really enjoyed completing this.
