This expressive ceramic Great Grey Owl sculpture captures the quiet intensity and wisdom of one of nature’s most iconic birds. Hand-sculpted by Canadian ceramic artist Bob Acton, the piece features deeply textured featherwork, carved individually to echo the layered softness of a real owl’s plumage. The face, broad, circular, and beautifully marked, holds luminous yellow eyes that radiate alertness and character.
The owl stands on a solid, dark sculpted base that evokes rock or charred wood, grounding the form with a sense of presence and natural habitat. Subtle variations of grey, charcoal, and soft white wash across the body, enhancing the sense of depth and movement within the feathers. Every mark retains the tactile honesty of hand-building, celebrating the relationship between material, gesture, and living form.
This sculpture brings a powerful yet calming energy to interiors - ideal for a console table, bookshelf, office space, or nature-inspired vignette. It is both a tribute to wildlife and a contemporary art object, blending symbolism, texture, and emotional resonance.
• Approx. Dimensions: 12×8×6 inches
