owl

linocut.
8x10.

This owl is one of my first completed pieces, which means--due to wear and tear--it is slowly succumbing to the ravages of time. He's been an excellent companion in print form, as well making some beautiful cards. On a personal note, the owl--as a sign of Wisdom--is often associated with Athena, and appears on the logo of the College of Stoic Philosophers with whom I've been working over the past year.
