9 x 12 Acrylic on Canvas Pad sheet. This is revised from an earlier "Snowy Owl". Sandi asked me to cast a shadow on the eye to add some depth. I think it is much better. What do you think Sandi?

I love your Emu! (?)  Thanks for your note as well.

Shadows can be scary things and usually are quite dramatic if one squints the eyes to see the values without colour.  I usually do a value sketch to sort these things out otherwise my brain gets all colour-discombobulated (love that word!).  I have attached a sketch to show you what I mean.

It's such a beautiful piece Tammy.  I love what you've done with it.  Congratulations!
