"Stillness with Golden Eyes"
By: David Sorensen (Duluth, MN)
A great gray owl stands sentinel on a snow-capped perch, its gaze unwavering as fine flakes drift through the dusk-toned brush. The muted winter palette—cool blues and soft browns—turns the scene into a quiet study of texture: feathered patterns, bare twigs, and fresh snow. In the center, two luminous eyes anchor the moment, conveying patience, precision, and the hushed power of a northern hunter.
