Description I painted this one in oil on canvas. It was kind of fun to do because the eagle had an attitude.

8" X 10"
Oil on canvas

*edit - I retouched this piece and glazed over the background with some white to tone it down. I also added a shadow in the eagle's mouth. Overall, I think it makes for a more mature piece.

Love how you can see the layers of the paint. Great intensity around the eye too

Nice work! I like the title, too! I'm not very good at titles - which is why I have titles such as "Golden Eagle - Looking Forward", etc. -_-

Thank you! Most of my titles aren't that great, either. Unless a title just jumps out at me, I normally use something very generic. I usually just name whatever the piece's subject is. Thanks for the fave!

You're welcome! Incidentally, I'm kind of the same way - that's why a few of my paintings do actually have decent titles (but ONLY a few).

This reminds me of one of those bald eagles at Dollywood. I can just see them start screaming at the people on the other side of the nets. Heheheh. I feel sorry for the oldest one there. It has the smallest space and all it manages to do is prop itself up like a maniquen and sit as pretty as it's rusty feathers can allow.

That's so sad... The last time I went to Dollywood, I took the crappy camera and didn't really get any good pictures.

I didn't take my camera. It was too hot to carry it around, plus it's a peice of shit now. I have to wait five seconds before the pictured takes. It sucks!
