Owl

Artist: Melissa Sharplin
Original Medium: Oil on Canvas
Original Scale: 60 x 90 inches

The first painting in Melissa Sharplin’s renowned Swit-Swurl (bird) series, Owl emerged from a vivid dream and became the catalyst for an entire body of work. The model is an ethereal composite drawn from three different sources, while the owl references are from photographer Dana Brown. This artwork bridges the seen and unseen — a divine feminine figure crowned and guarded by owls, messengers of intuition and ancient wisdom. A dreamlike and powerful piece that speaks to inner knowing and transformation.
