Barn Owl painting and a short poem 🦉
Sharing the process behind this latest painting for Folktale Week + I try my hand at acrostic poetry.
Hello!
This is the second post of the month where I share new work created for Folktale Week 2024. This one features a more detailed look at the process involved in the final painting, including a time-lapse of the final artwork and commentary during the painting process.
As this is a longer video than the previous one (just over 1 hour), I’ve provided time-stamps so you can skip straight to the part you’re most interested in.
At the end of the post are links to the materials used, plus things I mention in the video.
This new piece is based on the word prompt GATE and features a Barn Owl.
Since creating the first piece, I decided to write an acrostic poem for each one. I talk more about this in the video.
GATE
Guardian of the Tower
Alert to all who near
This curse, this honour is his alone
Echoes year upon year.
I created a shorter version of my process video, for all subscribers:
