Peregrine Painted Feather
By windfalcon
I'm super excited about the Raptor Weekend Art of Raptors show this weekend 
It is an art show featuring nothing but raptors! So cool! I'll have a bunch of paintings and a mask there, including this little feather painting I did specially for the show.

i love this one.
This is beautiful and truly creative to paint into the feathers, amazing job 
Awesome work!
How do you keep the feathers stuck together so they don't move? And i love the detail! how big are those feathers?
I use an acid-free PVA bookbinding glue that dries clear to glue the two feathers together. Then I'm careful with the acrylic to keep the feather vane from separating. These feathers are turkey tail coverts, and are maybe about 8 inches long.
I'm glad it arrived safely and I'm happy it was given to someone who will appreciate it ~jeffzz111 is a wonderful person!

This is magnificent! So much details depicted on the peregrine's face! Cheers! 
This is stunningly detailed!
That's great :0 It looks so real and alive 
Absolutly show-stopping! I desperately wish to try my hand at feather painting but have no clue where to start. This has inspired me big time, yet again... any pointers?
Hooray for peregrines.
I've a hunting peregrine story you might enjoy of an event that occurred above our back yard a couple of years ago. A bit too real for some of your admirers, though. I shall pass it on if you're interested
