Owl and Moon

Every feather is its own pass.

Pyrography on live-edge basswood · Jah Russ

Every feather on this owl is a separate pass with the pen. The oak leaves and acorns started out as a border, and then they grew into the piece instead of sitting around it. The basswood still has its live edge.

This is the one people walk up close to. I think it's the detail. An owl doesn't move much, and it doesn't need to. It just watches.
