Rumor has it that you can find this can be found under the floor boards of Mike's room, possibly hidden there while Pash was exploring crawlspaces.

I get free reign of the house on Wednesdays. Best chance to show everyone what i've been working on.

Looks great. Keep it up. I think you'll get really good at this! ^^

Thanks man! I appreciate that

Practice practice practice! Man, this attempt shows amazing treasures that will be discovered if you keep on diggin' man. I love it dude.

D'aww, thanks dude
I've grown fond of this little practice pic. I might hang it in my room or something.

Ooh! Love the feather texturing.

Definitely keep it up; this is pretty impressive, especially for one of your first attempts.

Thank you! I put like, a really unnecessary amount of layers on that owl, haha. But really though, it's really nice for you to say that

I was actually planning to tell you this in a shout earlier, but I, for some reason had a dream involving your character last night. I don't know why of all things, but your Filo Rooke was just there in the same room as me. It's a really faded memory after I woke up, so I can't exactly remember anything specific. But I remember seeing a glimpse of him just standing in the corner of a white brick room with one small white brick support beam in the center. Had the umbrella and everything. Such a strange and oddly specific thing to see in a dream.

Oh man! That's pretty awesome. You're actually the second one to tell me about a dream featuring my character. The first was actually what prompted this piece: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14612833/

That's some pretty surreal imagery, too. I may have to draw that at some point, haha.

Thanks for sharing. :) That's oddly flattering.

Dude, this is pretty awesome! The texture of the paint on the owl reminds me of wood--more specifically, a cross section of a log that allows you to see the tree's age rings. Do you know the texture I mean? Sorry, it's an oddly specific connection my mind made. I like the realism combined with the solid colors, too--makes me think of propaganda posters.

Oh dontt worry, haha. I know that exact texture you're talking about. Thank you very much though Mino! I dabbed it with a fan-brush mostly after setting the WIP colors of it.

/r/owls on Reddit would like this. I think it's pretty coo.

Thanks Dranon (i'm trying to make that a nickname)
I may just have to search those up tonight~

Most people who know me shorten it to Expy. (^^>

You sir deserve a cookie for this wonderful piece of work right here.
Incredibly well placed strokes and detail o-o

Thanks dude! I really appreciate that <3

Cookies are a wonderful insensitive to keep me painting. I hope you're giving me the fresh-out-of-the-oven ones that are still gummy and gooey with chocolate. Auurgh im making myself midnight binge

That's a fantastic owl
This would make a good cover for something

You're a fantastic owl!
But really tho, I appreciate it

wow you really went for broke on that feather texture =')
so glad you painted this bud, it looks great! and you must feel pretty pleased having an actual physical object that you made =3
nicely done!

I originally thought this painting was lackluster and I was hesitant to upload it, but over the passing time yesterday I received a few nice compliments and it gave me a confidence bonor for a couple minutes. I mostly used the fan-brush for that owl after the WIP was done; next time I paint an animal i'll try using a different technique because the fan-brush wasn't the most accurate tool to handle.

But blah, i'm really happy you like it man
As I typed this I was playing with a fly on my monitor by moving my cursor under it's feet.

that's smart. i often don't think of using tools properly. like a fan brush wouldn't occur to me; i'd likely try to paint each streak individually if noone suggest a fan brush to me -.-

wow i've never played with a fly before. i wonder if it knew on any level it was a game.

what's the title mean btw?

It's French for 'laughing gas'

For your first time, this is very well done indeed. Fine work pal. Keep it up, you'd make the canvas outside in your yard proud.

I've always wanted to learn how to paint, and it's seeing pieces like these that makes me really want to get started already. The interpretable nature of it really appeals to me. =)
It's so easy for things to get watered down, but this kind of thing feels like it has the artist's fingerprints all over it.
^^ Very nice~

Aww, thank you! That's very nice of you to say

It took me forever to motivate myself to pick up a brush. it was a sloppy first time, but I still had fun. It would be pretty rad for you to start too, I'm gona try this week to hopefully start again.
