Great horned owl - loose watercolor


I am now at my 4.th "Colorful birds" painting a great horned owl.
Just like the previous 3, great fun to paint.

I plan on painting 12 having a calender in mind, even I might not achieve that in a row...

Flamingo - Colorful birds


"Flamingo" is my 3.rd "Colorful Bird" painting. A feast of colors and feathers.


As written before: I totally enjoy the process of these paintings. No media like watercolor can be so unpredictable, and yet exciting to work with. It is really a balance of control and letting go.
I love most of the textures watercolors creates. Sometimes these textures are mistakes in paintings, but I force/wish many of them to happen, for an exciting surface. Afterall this is a mix of realism and abstraction :)

I took the ref-photo at a zoo years ago. I have several flamino-pictures, but for this square size, I needed one where the neck was not all stretched out ;)

As I cannot scan a canvas, the file is a digi-photo, and even I have a good camera, the file does not provide the same justice to the real painting.

The painting are sprayed with fixfixative and varnish, to be lasting without being behind glass!

Peacock - loose watercolor


"Peacock" is my second loose-watercolor birdpainting.

I took the ref-photo at a zoo years ago. Everybody find the peacock a beautiful bird (I guess :)). Even the large tail is what you usually think of first with peacocks, I found this posture strong enough to use as composition.

Snowy owl - loose watercolors


Here are the finished painting. I really enjoyed the process; drawing totally freehand - looking at referencephoto I have from zoo, and then painting in the loose coloristic way and with the abstractive background.
It gave me a freedom not only while working but also with my expectations with the finished painting. I loved it :)

Snowy owl - loose watercolors


I am working on a loose watercolorpainting of a snowy owl. The support is new for me, a canvas for watercolor.
It is very nice to paint on, the paint layer well and runs easily. It takes a while to dry though, but that is not just bad.
I am sure I will use this canvas' again, I like to work on it, and it will look nice when hanging.
I will finish it in this week.

Going Home - Jutland horses


The finished drawing "Going Home".
Despite the fact that I had to cut down the composition, because of a water and ink disaster, I think I caught the feeling I wanted with this one.
