This piece depicts the quiet connection between a woman and a barn owl, symbolizing a deep bond of intuition and wisdom. The soft pastel tones contrast with the sharp, alert gaze of the owl, perched protectively on her shoulder. I wanted to capture a sense of trust and mutual understanding, with the owl’s wings gently embracing the woman, representing guidance in times of contemplation.
The warm, earthy palette of the owl is echoed in the woman’s features, blending the two figures into a harmonious balance. This mixed media work invites the viewer to explore themes of inner knowing and the subtle strength found in companionship.
