I painted this watercolor as a close view of a watchful forest owl, partly concealed among tangled branches. Layered earthy browns, rust, cream, and blue-gray create a textured, abstract setting where the bird’s eye quietly draws you in. The forest is a little unruly here—much like my studio on a busy day—but that gives the piece its character. It would make a thoughtful addition to a reading nook, study, or cozy corner of your space.
