I think you did the right thing. It’s lovely just as it is.

It would have been so easy to add more colour but I think you made the right choice, so delicately painted. Lovely washes!!

Thank you Linda we must have been writing at the same time , I am pleased that I did not do anymore to it . I don’t normally paint owls quit so loose but the result is very pleasing really due to a friend who I bounce ideas of and who’s opinion I value . It’s good to have someone to get feedback from and share ideas with .
