I made these for @thante in the IYP swap because one of the ideas she wrote to me was, “a handful of owls”. Now, I don’t know that this was exactly what she had in mind when she penned that statement but this vision popped into my head at that moment and I just had to make it happen. The idea was inspired by previous “bowls of whimsy” that I’ve experienced in my life. One of my former ceramics instructors had a bowl full of little faces that he’s absently sculpted in his college days and I always loved them. So, here is my interpretation on a bowl of whimsy, or in this case, a handful of owls…

They’re super cute and feel nice in the hand! 
…and then they were still sitting on my coffee table when my mother came to visit yesterday, and she looked at them and said, “oh, of course! They’re owl pellets!”

These are so strange and lovely. Almost identical, but then not quite.
