This is my first, "Illustration Friday" post. You'll have to excuse the quality, I'm still out of practice! I am hoping to strengthen my drawing skills by participating in these weekly drawing exercises. Techniques: The "Wise Owl" drawn by hand using a mechanical pencil. Colored with "Pastello" chalk pastels. Scanned and touched up with Adobe Photoshop.
