Here's my latest night owl painting. It's very similiar to my other night owl. This time the night owl is in an apple tree. The bird in the tree is blue. There are a couple of sunflowers on the trail. Deery-Lou is absent, but the Sanrio smiling mushroom character made it in. Acrylic on Canvas.
12 x12"
completed 8/25/2007
This painting is going to be donated to PAWS/LA for Pet Art 9, an art auction which raises money for PAWS/LA. http://www.pawsla.org
The auction takes place in November sometime, but the artwork for the auction is due by the end of August, which is very soon.
I'm hoping to do more night owl paintings. Also, friend of night owl paintings would be very fun too. We'll see.

"Pink Night Owl" is a recent creation I painted about 4 weekends ago. I've been dying to post this. I had to wait because it was a surprise gift to my friend at work from one her friends.
It's a 12 x12" acrylic on canvas painting.
My friend at work loves owls, the color pink and forest friends. We both love Deery-Lou and the little mushroom character in the forest by Sanrio. Since we are not "morning" people, I think it is safe to say we both fall into the catagory of "night owl". We "try" to get bed at decent hours, but with the little ones it's hard to get things done (like go on-line) and we stay up later than we should. When her friend told me she wanted to buy a painting from me for my friend at work I decided that I would do a special piece for her. At first she asked to see what paintings I had available, then after some thought, I
knew what I wanted to paint. It had to be a "Pink Night Owl".
Then it became a commissioned piece. She wanted to buy it just from the description. This is what I came up with. My friend at work is very happy with it, plus her baby daughter loves it too.
