Acrylics,fiber paste,glass beads medium
on 140 lbs. Arches hot press paper
I've been in an owl frenzy, since taking Juliette Crane's class in Lifebook.
Here's another little whimsy owl, with a poem excerpt from
Mary Oliver "White Owl". The poem is beautiful. To read it in full visit this link http://www.panhala.net/Archive/White_Owl_Flies.html Misty Mawn referred to her in class. I took a small part from the poem , which I felt went nicely with this painting.
Done on 140 lbs. Arches watercolor paper in acrylics,fiber paste for body and wings, and glass beads medium for feathers. Homemade flower stamp on printing paper, and glued on watercolor paper with matte medium
Excerpt reads:
" Coming down out of the freezing sky
with its depths of light
like an angel, or a Buddha with wings"

This is my latest artwork on Animal Totems.
 I am taking classes in Life book 2012 , which is a year long with
fabulous artists. This class was with Juliet Crane
famous for her whimsical owls. My chosen
animal for this piece was the Rabbit. Qualities
of the rabbit surrounds him, with 3 dragonflies .
