Collection: Girl and The Owl










I'll end this week with this lovely collection "Girl and The Owl" which consists of artworks by some very talented people from all over the web. I wish you all a wonderful weekend and I'll see you on Monday. Take care and be safe.

Kate MccGwire: Not Owl, Owl Feathers






I came across these amazing sculptures made by London based artist Kate MccGwire who uses number of recycled feathers to create these intriguing fluid forms.

The feathers used for these pieces are mainly from owls, pigeons & pheasants. "All of her feathers are received from a network of pigeon racers and farmers who mail her the feathers they have collected when their birds begin molting in the Spring." So, no bird is harmed!

If you want to see her incredible work in person then stop by at Eleventh Plateau, Hydra Historical Archives Museum, Greece where she will be exhibiting from July 8th through September 4th.

Mark Hearld

"Owl Flight"
"Fox"
"The Owl and The Fox"
"Red Lion"
"The Owl and The Moon"

Mark Hearld is one of my all time favorite artists. He was trained in illustration at Glasgow School of Art and studied MA in Natural History Illustration at the Royal College of Art. His work shows influences of British countryside and artists, and his love for animals. He has worked in various medium like paint, print, ceramics and textiles. Following are few of prints that I hand-picked which show true style of Mark's energetic use of bold and vibrant colors. 

I have featured his work previously, here.
