olive wassal - homeward bound
The Barn Owl, a vision of wisdom and beauty soaring over the fields of South Barrule looking for prey before returning home to roost. Her home for many years, a farm building at the old pig farm on the Ballamodha Straight, in the Isle of Man.
The farm being Olive’s first family home on arriving in the Isle of Man in the 80s. They used to love watching her glide over the fields, an ally, a friend, keeping the rodents away, protecting the livestock and crops on their farm.
Medium: oil on linen
Dimensions: 40.5 x 61 cm
