'Delftware' Tile - The Wit To Woo
One of the 13 faux Delft tiles (actually acrylic on panel) I created last week especially for my Wunderkabinett solo exhibition at the week-end. The Show was in a Georgian period townhouse, which not untypically have blue & white Delftware tiles surrounding the hearths.
The Owl is a symbol of the Norfolk town of Holt, where our friends, Will & Marie, have a wonderful shop, Old Town. Apparently the town was plagued by a particularly noisy one back in the mists of time and tried to drown it by sticking said bird up the church drain pipe. Fortunately the wise owl outwitted the townsfolk and escaped to hoot another day...
