"In Greek Mythology, Glaucus is the symbolic owl of the Goddess Athena. Often referred to as the "Owl of Athena", Glaucus accompanies Athena in Greek myths, seen as a symbol of wisdom because the owl is capable of seeing even in the dark and of vigilance because the owl is awake at night" ~ Wiki

This little owl is a Barred Owl, one of my favourite types of owls. This little fella is a Christmas present for my very dear friend. Hopefully she'll love him.

Done with oil pastels and colouring pencils

Oh, that's cute, I love owls. You picked a nice earthy tone to the colours, it looks very natural.

Shucks Emma!! I know his face is too cute! :D
I'll be sad to part from him tomorrow night (present for Ash), he was so much fun to draw. Thinking of drawing more owls. What do you think?

That is the problem with gift art, you have to be willing to part with it, especially since you promised her =P Sounds like a good plan, especially if you enjoyed drawing this fellow :D
