i’m really in love with this little blue owl. he makes me smile each time i look at him!
there’s a pretty sweet story for how he got his name too…i’d been staring at the panting and knew its name had to do with songs at night and that it looked like a baby owl. yet, i just couldn’t find the right words.
then i took a break and checked a twitter message from an artist with the word LULLABY in their handle and i knew i’d found the perfect fit! i could hardly believe the synchronicity!

This little blue owl is shy and sweet, singing you to sleep with its beautiful LULLABY.
I used all sorts of materials from my studio to create this painting- acrylics, glitter, ink, pencil, pastel, vintage sheet music and origami paper. On top, I applied a homemade antique decoupage, then a layer of wax on top to protect the piece from the elements.

Lately I’ve been going back to painting owls. For awhile I had been creating these very renaissance-style portraits with soft, realistic faces and incredible hair. I enjoyed that I could make them look very human, but still full of magic and color. While I still adore creating these flower girls, I found that these paintings were missing something. After countless attempts in the studio, many... Continue reading
