Owls: You're a Star

AEDM #8  ... back to my owls and making their personalities shine! I've already decided on the title "You're a Star"!  I kind of feel like this owl is a representation of me and all the work I've put fourth in really being true to my-self.
One of the things that is unique to me is my style. I feel most comfortable when dressed in the clothes I love. I gravitate towards fun t-shirts or floral cardigan sweaters, and my red and white polka-dotted keds or my black and white saddle shoes. I like fun socks and leg warmers and I love scarfs!! Its can be the middle of summer (in GA when I visit) and I'll be wearing a tank-top with a fun scarf around my neck!
My career as an ASL interpreter doesn't always allow me to wear the fun stuff I desire, but I manage the fun socks and crazy shoes ... my clients usually get a kick out of it! Oh and I always have a scarf (in black, grey or deep purple)  :)

I'll show you how this little star formed and how it has progressed:
                       

The background

In the beginning with the basic concept

I don't feel like she's transformed that much

but maybe that's because this is how I

always knew she would look (not really though).

I think I might add a couple more touches with the gold

and I need to adjust her feet! he he
