Description


Young Tawny Owl

This enchanting artwork captures the wide-eyed innocence of a juvenile Tawny Owl (Strix aluco), perched upon a moss-covered branch. With its downy, mottled feathers and striking dark eyes ringed in gold, the young owl radiates a sense of both curiosity and quiet watchfulness.

Tawny Owls are among Britain's most familiar woodland owls, their haunting “twit-twoo” calls echoing through forests, parks, and gardens after dusk. As nocturnal hunters, they rely on sharp eyesight and acute hearing to locate small mammals, insects, and birds in the darkness.

While adults are secretive and rarely seen, their young — like the one depicted here — often venture to low branches before they have mastered flight, giving lucky observers a fleeting glimpse.

This print not only celebrates the beauty of the bird itself, but also the atmosphere of the ancient woodlands it inhabits — damp with moss, alive with shadows, and filled with the quiet mystery of the night.
Printed using archival pigment inks on fine art paper, this Limited Edition Giclée (150) preserves every brushstroke of texture and depth. Each print is hand-signed and numbered by the artist, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Poetic Note
In twilight's hush the young owl waits,
Wide eyes bright by woodland gates.
A fleeting glimpse, the forest's child,
Both watchful, wondrous, free and wild.
