This Tyto Alba, or Barn Owl, the Ghost Owl, just flew into the line up for next month's exhibition at The Duchess of Cornwall Inn in Poundbury. The original is acrylics on box canvas 40x40cm, and it's flown down to the printers, roosting overnight, ready for the presses in the morning. He'll also be available as a framed fine art print and greetings cards. The artist's brain cells were worn out from the creative painting process yesterday so he was named by Facebook followers and the winners will receive a free greetings card in due course. Lots of lovely name ideas so if any more owls swoop by onto canvas I may choose some of the other suggestions, and you never know if they make greetings cards due rewards will follow. Here he is meanwhile, watching, waiting and always poised for that silent aerial glide.
PS Thursday, just 24 hours later thanks to Art2Card's amazing service, thank you James, Barnabas the Great has flown back safely; greetings cards and 1/25 print in tow ..
all ready for Monday at The Duchess
