I a working on a new Fairy Door for a friend of my daughter. She liked one I had done with an owl on it, so I set to and painted the owl.
I used Decoart paints for him (Paines Grey, Burnt Umber and Quinacridone Gold) Quin Gold is actually a lovely rusty red sort of colour, as you can see. I used the Burnt Umber and Paines Grey for around the edges, to try and give him the impression of contour. Whilst wet I sprinkled Ultra thick embossing powder over him, and heated it up. Love the effect for his chest feathers - which I then applied cream acrylic to with my finger.
His feet, beak and eyes were then painted with a DYNA iridescnt gold. They eyes also having the green/gold and blue/black DYNA paints added. I think I might add some glossy accents to his eyes to give them a more 3D effect, (Have just thought of that!) and possible his beak too.
