Winnie the Tao of Pooh- Owl the Scholar Character Design

I designed Owl from Winnie the Pooh as a 'tao of pooh' inspired human. I took inspiration from the owl iterations of the past, EH Shephards and Disneys, and then dove into kinds of owls he could be, and kinds of scholars/philosophers he could be. In my sketch phases, I'm not afraid to just get a doodle out of my system. I won't know it doesn't work until I've drawn it!
