White Pastel Pencil on Black Paper: Barn Owl Perched

Here's the link to my latest YouTube video. A time lapse, just over five minutes of a drawing of a barn owl.

I used an image I downloaded from Wildlifereferencephotos.com, desaturated it and drew a graphite study.

I worked from the gray scale photo and the drawing to draw the barn owl on black paper with white pencil.

...and here is the final drawing.
