"THE OWLS AND THE MICE"
Acrylic Gouache, Watercolor on Paper
Created for a mythology course assignment centered on inventing original myths, "The Owls" and "The Mice" draw from the historical fear and superstition surrounding both animals. I chose to reimagine them as haunting, humanoid creatures lurking within the woods, using their unsettling beauty and bewitching appearances to lure wandering travelers deeper into the forest.
