Like many of my pieces, this work was created during a period of personal loss, often in the quiet hours when sleep felt elusive. Working at night allowed space for focus and stillness, and the repetitive dot work became a way of staying present through the making.
While the composition was carefully planned, the character of the owl emerged gradually through repetition and restraint. The slow, deliberate process allowed the work to settle into a watchful, contained presence rather than being imposed from the outset.
The balance between structure and intuition remains central to how the piece developed, shaped through time, attention, and quiet observation.

Full description
This original owl guardian painting was created as a focal piece for an inner altar or intentional space.
The owl holds a steady, watchful presence, allowing the viewer to engage with it as a guardian, observer, or anchor within the space. Built through layered acrylic dot work, the composition balances careful planning with intuitive flow, with pattern, rhythm, and restraint developing gradually across the surface.
The result is a work that feels contained and resolute, intended to sit quietly within a sacred space.
