Family Circles Collection - "Great Gray Owl Family" by artist D.L. Rusty Rust. First issue in this series -- Bradford exchange, production date 1993. Plate size approx. 8 inches. Suggested Retail $50.00.
Hidden deep in a far northern forest, high in a towering spruce tree, is an intensely devoted family group. Surprisingly, it is a family of great gray owls.
Here we see the mysterious owl that is often called "the great gray ghost," with his mate and his fluffy chicks as few humans have ever seen him. The great gray is an awesome predator. But it usually mates for life and faithfully shares the parenting duties with its mate.
In "Great Gray Owl Family," first plate in his Family Circles collection, wildlife artist D. L. "Rusty" Rust gives us a stunning depiction of this largest of the North American owls. With consummate artistry, he employs a misty, monochromatic color scheme to play up the owls' ghostly coloration, and at the same time to symbolize their mysterious lifestyle. Each detail, from downy feather to spiny spruce needle, is so meticulously defined we feel as if we are seeing this scene first-hand. "As re-created on fine porcelain, "Great Gray Owl Family" brings you a rare view of nature that you can enjoy whenever you wish.
