This Owl Gallery depicts the various environments that Owls thrive in. My favorite ideas when painting Owls is in a Fall and Winter landscape. However, there are some Owls that live in warmer climates. I have not actually observed an Owl in the wild but only on various media. What I like about the Owls are their many feathers. Owls have kind of a mystique that intrigues and inspires me. Being more active at night they inspire my nighttime landscapes. This allows me to get creative with the moon and stars as well as the snow. Pastel is a good medium for me to create feathers since Owls have many shades of feathers. It allows for a softer and feathery texture. It is my favorite medium for Birds in general. However, it is not the only medium I haved used for them. Other mediums have their own characteristics and can allow for creativity.
