White Owl Wall Art Snowy Owl Metal Sign Animal Familiar Wall Decor

Only the eyes have color.

A snowy owl fills the panel from the chest up, feathers barred with fine black flecks, amber eyes staring straight ahead. Everything else is worked in white and pale grey: the branch under his talons, a smaller owl perched behind on the upper left, layered chrysanthemums and daisies, a frosted pine, round river stones piled at the base. The background sits back a shade cooler, closer to blue.

The whole thing looks like sheets of cut paper stacked over one another, each petal and feather given its own shadow line, the branches curling out past the edge of the scene. That depth is in the picture rather than the metal, so the sign stays smooth to the touch and weighs almost nothing on the hook.

It suits a hallway or a bedroom wall that stays pale, and it carries through winter without reading as Christmas. Snowy owls turn up as familiars and as messengers in plenty of folk traditions, which makes this an easy gift for someone with a bird on their altar.
