We Want Your Arts!

The Owl needs owls! 


Actually The Owl wants any and all fun art pieces you might have to offer: cute animals, robots, zombie fish, platypuses... platypus.... uh, hmm... How do you pluralize platypus? I googled, and didn't find a proper answer. I did find a fellow blogger that is also facing this puzzling platypus plural, take a look at her ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE baby platypus picture! (This paragraph has way too many Ps...) http://desperatelyseekingseersucker.blogspot.com/2011/02/what-is-plural-of-platypus.html


ANYWAY...


We've acquired two super cool beauties to hang in the dining room already, and we want more! Besides art for the walls we're also interested in art for the tables. Pieces will of course be credited, and (if you want) they can even be listed for sale! If you're interested in either selling us some awesome art, or displaying art to sell to our customers, please get in touch!! You can (obviously) do that right here, or on our Facebook, or Twitter, pages. You can also get me on Google+ or by email. Just put Owl Art as the subject or hash tag :)


We'd love to have a constantly evolving decor, so art sold to our customers, or on loan for a limited time would be fantastical. That said, I'm sure there are pieces (like the ones posted here) that we will fall too in love with to ever part from. 


Here's the two permanent paintings (again with the Ps...) we have so far:

This beautiful triptych is by Jenalea Johnson Check her out on Etsy

And here we have Aaron modeling a Horned Owl by Etsy User Keena






If you want to get in on the Owl Art early we'd love you to post samples on our Facebook page! Just tag yourself as the creator. This would also be great for digital art or (my personal fav) MS Paint style creations. You'll get exposure to our growing audience, and we'll get to see a preview of art we might like to buy. A little disclaimer, we can't buy all the art we'd want for our permanant displays all at once (we're just starting out and we don't have unlimited monies); so don't despair if we don't pick your piece right away! We just might want it in a few months ;) 


I can't wait to see what y'all got in store for our walls. We hope we can display lots of local art from here in Greenville, but indie creatives from all over will get an equal shot at The Owl. In furtherance of that goal, prepare to see me repost this randomly to get the word out ;)


Hoot.
