Wise and Watchful

I’ve had an urge to paint an owl for quite some time … I think it was the childhood poem that made a huge impression on me as a kid and that often comes to mind. “A wise old owl lived in an oak, The more he saw, the less he spoke The less he spoke, the more he heard, Why aren’t we all like that wise old bird?” (I think there are a number of different versions of this poem.) At any rate, this is a 24” x 24” mixed media/acrylic paint piece on a gallery wrapped canvas. Creating it was truly a joyful experience!!!
