Contemporary White Owl Acrylic Pour Painting by Heather Dixon

This is a contemporary original artwork titled "White Owl" created by artist Heather Dixon. Measuring 11x14 inches, the piece is executed in acrylic on a gallery-wrapped canvas. The background features a vibrant 'acrylic pour' technique, displaying a series of organic, cell-like shapes in merging tones of crimson, magenta, orange, and deep purple. Centered on this abstract background is a highly detailed, hand-painted white owl perched on a dark brown branch. The owl is rendered with thick, impasto-like brushstrokes to simulate the texture of plumage, with striking amber-colored eyes and a dark beak providing focal points. The condition is pristine and new, showing no signs of wear, fading, or damage. The piece is signed with the initials 'H.D.' in the lower right corner. This artwork represents a fusion of modern fluid art with traditional representational wildlife painting, reflecting 21st-century artistic trends. The craftsmanship is evident in the controlled application of layers over the fluid base, creating a sense of depth and contrast.
