Oh Handsome Fowl
30”H x 30”W x 1.5”D
Acrylic and oil on canvas
Oh Handsome Fowl brings to life the dashing hero from the beloved Edward Lear poem, "The Owl & The Pussycat." In this painting, the owl is dressed in a sleek grey tuxedo, exuding charm and elegance as he embarks on a journey of love and adventure. As I painted him, I found myself reflecting on the incredible commitment and deep love it takes for a marriage to thrive—especially a marriage as unconventional as that between a cat and a bird! This piece is a celebration of the extraordinary bonds we form and the courage it takes to commit to a lifelong partnership, even when the odds seem stacked against us.
This painting is more than just a well-dressed owl; it’s a narrative about love, resilience, and the beauty of commitment. Oh Handsome Fowl speaks to the romantic in all of us, the part that believes in love’s ability to bridge any gap and overcome any obstacle. It’s a perfect reminder that love, in all its forms, is worth celebrating.
Perfect for the nursery, living room, bedroom or a statement piece.
