Barn Owl £ 695
Audio Description
Description
This is a large acrylic painting/collage on stretched canvas. The canvas measures 60 cm tall by 80 cm wide or 2 foot tall by 2 foot 8 inches wide. The artwork captures the dramatic moment that a barn owl - wings outstretched in mid-flight - is about to strike its prey. The dynamic composition and intense contrast of light and dark emphasise the bird's powerful motion and predatory focus. The luminosity of the backlit owl's wings have been captured by collaging custom-printed tissue papers onto a white profile set against the dark blue of a starry or moonlit night sky depicted in acrylic paint. The textured layers add depth and intensity, conveying the raw energy of the hunt in a bold, almost cinematic moment. A video of the creation of this artwork is available below. I wanted to honour the power, beauty and sheer awesome design of this enchanting native bird of prey in this artwork.
