Night Owl

I have always been one......
Feeling inspiration in the wee hours......
Being content to dabble in anything, but sleep....

Funny then, that this little guy was painted this morning after dropping my daughter off at school :D


I recycled this canvas from an old work I no longer liked...
So this......


became this....


"He liked the Night"
5 x 5 inches on canvas
in the shop
(*SOLD* Thanks, Diane!)


You can't see it in the photos, but the moon and stars sparkle with fine glitter art paint.



Because thanks to all of you, I am inspired and cheered...
...and not afraid to call myself an Artist any longer!

...and with any luck, I will someday be able to earn a living as one...haha!

Biggest Hugs!
Cameron

    Cameron,
    That little owl is wonderful!


    I am a night owl too.. then I only sleep for a couple hours and I am back up at 4 or 5 am..

    I think because it's so quiet & peaceful in the house and I really can get wrapped up in my own imagination.

    Happy creating Cameron :)

    You KNOW I love your owls. They are really, truly amazing. The eyes...sigh. Just gorgeous.

    I've turned into a night owl. Never was before. Now I'm up late at night sniffing flux and solder. Maybe that's why I seem about odd these days...bwahahahhaa!! - Kathy
