Keene State College - Parliament of Owls
Okay, Matt Phelan posted his, so I'll share mine too.
A few months back, Blue Rose Girls posted a request for Owls to celebrate Keene State College's 100th Anniversary in 2009. They are gathering 100 Owls to mark the occasion, and put out a call to children's book illustrators.
I couldn't resist. One, it's a great cause; two, owls are so cool; and three, my owl will be hanging alongside owls drawn by many of my illustration heroes.
So, I created my "Wise Reader" and had a giclee made. (Since I work digitally, a giclee is as close as I get to original art.) My owl has already flown north and will be included in the collection. I'm thrilled.

Elizabeth,
I just read your comment at Matt's blog. That led me here. I love your "wise owl." It's another fine addition to the Keene State College Festival Owl Project. Have you seen the collection of picture book art at the college? It's outstanding!
As a Blue Rose Girl and a member of the Festival Advisory Board, I want to thank you for your contribution.
What a great owl! And he will fit right in with his academic surroundings! I missed hearing about this-- I need to check and see if it's not too late!
This is an owl that means business! Very nice. Ditto on Keene's illustration collection. If you are ever in the area you should definitely check it out.
I love this owl! perfect attitude and colors. great talons, too!
Definitely, an owl with attitude! You captured him perfectly. I sure would love to see all 100 Owls!
