Goldene Bier Eule
Artist
Beverley Harper Tinsley

Description
A tiny, golden owl perches on a beer bottle, staring intently. This warm, earth-toned painting was inspired by my experiences at The Epic Beer Festival in Denver, Colorado.
*****
This owl is painted on watercolor paper with watercolor paints and Daniel Smith walnut ink, and is attractively framed and double-matted in warm earthy tones. Contact artist for photos of painting as framed.

Owls are among my favorite subjects, and truthfully I can't exactly say why. But they fascinate me with their mysterious appearance, nocturnal activity and long history as a symbol in word mythology and culture.
Owls are a group of birds that belong to the order Strigiformes, constituting 200 extant bird of prey species. Most are solitary and nocturnal, with some exceptions (e.g., the Northern Hawk Owl). Owls hunt mostly small mammals, insects, and other birds, although a few species specialize in hunting fish. They are found in all regions of the Earth except Antarctica, most of Greenland and some remote islands. Though owls are typically solitary, the literary collective noun for a group of owls is a parliament. Owls are characterized by their small beaks and wide faces, and are divided into two families: the typical owls, Strigidae; and the barn-owls, Tytonidae.
