Watercolor of an owl

After taking the "what animal are you" personality test that was on Facebook last week, I decided to continue my series of animal paintings. My animal was the owl. What does that say about me? I am wise?...I stay up late?...I hang out by myself?... I don't know. Anyways, with some help from Google Images, I created this owl. It started out a little "cartoony" but I think I was able to bring it to a point somewhere between cartoony and realistic that I will call artistic! I tried several different techniques to get a sense of texture for the feathers, and at some point I just splattered some paint on for the fun of it. And so I present to you " Mr. Personality"!
