Here is a sketch of a Little Owl (Athene noctua). This is the favored owl of the Greek goddess Athena, also known as Minerva by the Romans. Alex suggested that I might want my owl for my painting of Athens to be in more of an upright pose than the one I sketched before, he found this owl for me. I like them both, but I think this may fit the mood of the piece a little more so than the first one...
I am also participating in Sunday Sketches. To view more Sunday Sketches, please visit:

Intensity is of a purple calla lily set against a very light grey sky. Flowers are so beautiful to me, they remind me of my grandparents and their love of nature. The style is a soft realism. This piece available as an original, as prints, and Limited Edition ACEOs!
