Painting a Trio of Tawny Owl Chicks🦉🎨🖌 #shorts

In this timelapse I use acrylic paint to paint three tawny owlets sitting together on a branch.

PAINTING TECHNIQUE
I tend to paint directly from photographs of my subjects, taken in the wild. You'll notice I have taped these to the board so that I can refer to them as I add brushstrokes

THE STORY BEHIND THE ART
These tawny owl chicks were all rescued owlets, brought to me by Ryedale Rehabilitation Centre. I introduced them to a wild tawny owl nest in my garden in Yorkshire where the adults raised them as their own (it turns out tawny owls can't count and don't realise when you add a few more owlets to the nest). Read more about how I developed this conservation technique here: https://www.robertefuller.com/diary/saving-nature-looking-after-tawny-owls/

ART INSPIRATION
I placed a branch at the edge of my garden where I leave food to help the parent owls cope with the extra mouths I have introduced to the nest. Once the owlets grow in confidence they tend to fly down and help themselves too! It is wonderful to see them here, they tend to arrive together, usually at dusk. I wanted to capture this in this painting.

I am a British wildlife artist based in Thixendale, North Yorkshire, UK. I build ideal habitats to encourage wildlife into my garden and use nest cams to study their behaviour. These studies inform my paintings. I share the best of my video research on this channel for free.
