Turning a Log into a 6 foot Snowy Owl

What a cool project this was! This was my first open wing owl as well as my first snowy owl, there will definitely be more of both! I love unique requests like this, makes me think outside the box a little bit! I'm pleased to say the customer was very happy with the results and I'm honored that this owl will represent her little business for years to come!
