Peter's Playmate Original Wildlife Oil Painting By Nena Howell

Nena Howell's "Peter's Playmate" original oil painting captures a whimsical wildlife encounter. The artwork depicts a barn owl perched peeking around the truck of an old broken cedar tree. The owl has locked eye on a curious squirrel make his dash to the right.  The dance continues from side to side.

The owl, with majestic white plumage, is a symbol of wisdom and mystery. The squirrel, on the other hand, is full of energy and vitality, its bushy tail twitching with excitement. The contrast between the two creatures creates a sense of folly and intrigue.

The background of the painting is a soft blur of teal focusing the attention on this curious interaction between the owl and the squirrel.
