An oil painting on canvas by Tony Angell is a rare thing indeed.
This piece was painted in 1971 but just recently arrived at the gallery. Here is Tony's recollection of the moment that inspired the painting:

While exploring a local Cascade forest one night in early spring, I could hear a pair of great horned owls exchanging calls back and forth through the woods. Like any curious naturalist, I headed in their direction to investigate the conversation. A minute’s walk into the moonlight-filled evening and there was one of the owls fully illuminated before me. The bird was perched on an exposed limb from where it had likely been engaged in a discussion over territorial boundaries with his neighbor. Whatever the intent, his image was a powerful one. The boldness and beauty of the owl’s attitude and form were the driving sources for this oil painting which commemorates the moment.⁠
⁠
Owls occupy and enliven habitats worldwide at hours and in places we know little of. This species, among the largest of our North American owls, can be heard and sometimes seen in the dense woods bordering the Salish Sea. Their mystery is seductive. Their role in sustaining the delicate ecological fabric of our natural heritage here is significant and still being determined. At the same time, few other species have generated such vast and inspiring mythic lore among human cultures around the world. Owl calls are an invitation to investigate and further contemplate nature. Discoveries await.⁠ - Tony Angell
