Creating the Owl Shaman Doll

 

 

 

The Owl Head 

is made of canvas

 

 

 

 

The Heads are shaped

 and the faces 

are sketched in

 

 

 

Black acrylic paint is used to darken around the eyes and outline feathering areas

Loosely woven fabrics added

 

 

 

First the black faux fur, closest to the eyes, and then  tufts of other colors are added

 

 

 

 

Adding color to the eyes.

Orange on top, 

yellow on the bottom, blended.

 

 

More black, more depth

white dot in the center of the pupil

 more fur 

(this dollmaker never uses feathers due to their rapid rate of deterioration)

and continue 

adding more depth and more fur

add accessories
