Once I was told, if you look into the owls eyes, you might never be able to look away again...

I've been pretty lazy with visiting deviantArt these last years, and was totally surprised today to find this old sketch of mine to have gotten a DD - Thank you very, very much for that, for all the favs & comments and everything, that's amazing!
As I got some request I added a print, hope you enjoy

I wish there was a bigger version, I'd love to get a better look at the details.
Amazing!
Congrats on the DD, totally deserved it.
Do you mean it has to wait there staring back at you until you starve or something?
Ha ha, sorry for the stupid remark, it just needed to come out...
Really good one, I love owls, and I haven't seen anything like this before...
Kudos
but nevermind the description, it's more of a metaphoric message to somebody who might never read it
And you perfectly captured its beauty and elegance. Nice work!
Luv the collors!
