Flaco Enshrined Print

This painting is a portrait of the late, great Flaco The Owl, who’s escape from the Central Park Zoo, year-long survival and subsequent (and very sad) passing inspired millions around the world. The week Flaco was killed, I had just completed a painting of another bird-of-prey neighbor, a portrait of a falcon that had struck a pigeon outside of my fifth story window. The coincidental timing made it clear to me that I am now entering my feathered phase and shall be painting the wild flying things of New York City for the next few months and meditating on themes of freedom and concrete. I will offer the falcon in a few days, a small diptych coupled with said pigeon, natch. Thanks so much for enjoying my work and I very much appreciate your likes and follows!
