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"

'Angel Owl"

Poem on print
Who Who Who is there?
Calling Upon Me
In my world of silence
I have a keen sight and a link
Between the dark and unseen world
And the world of light
I'm the messenger of secrets and omen
Yea, who calls upon me
Will find comfort and freedom

My little owl fibre project
About 5" high.
Body created  with leftover fleece (from a jacket I made for a friend), and cotton material was from remnants in a big barrel at a place called Maiwa here in Vancouver. http://www.maiwa.com/ . They carry some of the most beautiful fabric and yarn. A fav. place of mine. The eyes were made with felt.
All handstitched with random and blanket stitching.
