"Perfect Imperfection" - Public Art Competiton
now - May 24
now - May 24
Entry Number 9
Artist: Carol Hendrix
Title: “Zeus”
Medium: Watercolor & Gouache
Sale Price: $650.00
Age Category: Adult
Zeus is inspired by a western screech owl I visited at the Wildlife Learning Center in Sylmar, California. Zeus has blinding capsular cataracts in both eyes, turning them dark bluish black. His eyes also have white flecks caused by pigmented clots, resulting in a tiny owl who looks like he has the starry sky in his eyes. I chose Zeus as my subject for Perfect Imperfection: his eyes may be imperfect as far as function, but it looks like he has the whole, perfect night sky in them. Just because things don’t work perfectly doesn’t mean they aren’t still beautiful.
