In this painting, I captured the intense presence of a small owl perched on a branch, its piercing red eyes staring straight ahead. The deep blue feathers contrast with the vibrant yellow of its beak and talons, giving the owl an air of mystery and quiet strength. I was drawn to the contrast between the owl’s fierce expression and its small, almost unassuming form. For me, this piece speaks to the power and depth we can carry within, even when we appear small or unnoticed. There's a quiet resilience in the owl's gaze that reminds me of the inner strength we all hold.
