Art: Reading Takes You Places by Artist Patricia  Lee Christensen
This little owl loves books and the places they take him! The inquisitive little guy wants to learn, experience adventures, travel to far away exotic continents that his little wings alone cannot take him.

Sold from my Etsy store as a giclee print, this image is a fun decorative motivator to read and explore the wonders of books! Great as a gift for a teacher, a child, or to adorn the library area of any home!

This is a pen & ink sketch with umber ink and watercolor. I am a great admirer of Ernest H. Shepard, British artist who rendered the original Winnie-The-Pooh 'decorations' as it states on the title page of the books. I was raised on these books and still feel the influence of Shepard's charming drawings - probably the earliest art I experienced.

My prints are printed on Epson archival water color paper with professional quality inks. Image size is 7" x 5" with white border - overall paper size is 10" x 8".
