Description
Snowy Dawn is a painting inspired by FAA Photographer Heather King. Her love for these majestic creatures has rubbed off on me. I contacted her for permission to use some of her amazing captures of Great Snowy Owls as a reference for a painting. She responded with an enthusiastic yes, so here they are. The male Snowy is swooping down to be with his beloved mate as she receives some warmth from the first rays of sunlight.
Thank you, Heather...this was such a joy and pleasure to paint!
This painting now hangs in a home in Ottawa, Canada. It rightfully belongs there with one of the world's greatest photographers of owls but more importantly, one who loves owls more than anyone!

I didn't know you and Heather in 2015 and so missed this beautiful collaborative event until now. What magic!! This is an inspired creation and I'll add the owls part of this wonderful painting. They are certainly one of nature's most beautiful birds, especially this wondrous Great Snowy Owl. F/L+++
Jerry Bokowski replied:
Thank you so much, Nancy! All I can do is mimic the Grand Creator’s works. Heather gave me permission to use two of her owls for reference. Now she has the original!
