DIY - Owl - Doodling/Painting/Mixed Media Tutorial How To

 I've been noticing a lot of Owls lately.

Have you too?

 

I decided to see if I could make an owl painting of my own.

Here's what I came up with.  It's easy, fun, and I'm guessing you can do it too.

 

Here's how...

 

First step - Sketch a picture of an owl.  I found a cookie jar owl and used it to get ideas from.

 

The next day, I found some of my favorite scrap paper.

Cut it up into shapes, similar to my sketch.

I laid it out on a canvas, and then decoupaged it down.

 

I was going to paint around my owls parts, but decided I'd rather doodle.

No surprise there.  So, I started by outlining.  Then, I doodled.

 

 

For the words, I decided to use. 

"Owl Always Love You."

Not sure

how these things just pop into my head.

 

But, I'm glad that they do.

 

I cut out some more scrapbook paper and used a stamp for

my letters with white paint.

I ended up doing my green background after, but you might want to do it before you

glue your owl down.

 

EZPZ.

 

Let me know what you think, or show me a picture of an owl you create.

I'd really love that.
