"Sentinel"

 

We have lived in a particular valley in Lake District for 25 years, but only rarely seen barn owls. In the past two years, however, we have been blessed to have a pair come to live in a barn close by and raise their young.

 

They are such beautiful birds. Seeing them hunting in the valley in an evening - ghostly forms flitting through the valley - feels like a blessing. Something wild and true returning. On the odd occasion, they have even come to swoop through our garden.

 

This painting is based on a photograph by Gill Merritt, with her kind permission.

COLOURS ON THE SCREEN: In real life, the colours within the painting are always slightly different from the way my camera captures them or your screen shows them, so the overall painting will either be a little paler or darker, depending on the settings of our various technologies.

I am happy to email you multiple pictures of the painting, including close-ups, before you buy so that you can get a good sense of the final image. Feel free to get in touch to request this.
