the painted owl

I adore this. I like how the earthingie goes past the border a little, and great colors.

got mouse? comments appreciated.

Interesting object and good background, but what did you do with her ears?!

Just fine !

This looks like a painting

thanks folks. this is similar in technique to my piece "the painted raven": a fairly mediocre photograph painted over in photoshop. the background is pasted in. the colors are essentially true, and the "ears" are genuine, but most of the detail is hand painted-- therefore, it's deffinately a digital alteration-- but it's the product of many hours work. i wish now that i'd left him a bit more room on the right.

This is just cool :)
