the venation of the wings

with its olive back

the antlers and head position all had to be exactly right

A Phalaenopsis orchid — two blooms open on an arching stem

this Saw-whet Owl in autumn maple is one of his most subtly composed and atmospherically rich owl paintings

Snowy Owl — Giclée on Paper Silk Scarves the venation of the wingsA Snowy Owl launches from a lichen covered rock wings spread to their full span, filling the upper half of the canvas, the yellow eyes fixed directly on the viewer. This 1982 watercolour is one of Glen's most dramatic and formally bold compositions: the white owl against a pale winter sky, distinguishable only by its feather texture and the shadows within the wing, the lichen covered tundra rock below providing the only warm colour in the painting.
