Product description
So when and how did the owl become wise? Athena. The Greek Goddess of Wisdom is responsible. The greek goddess took the little owl and used him for her symbol. Did she take the owl as her symbol because in ancient Greece it represented the wise? Or was it because Athena was the goddess of wisdom that the owl became wise by association?
Background Information about Daniel Mackie
Inspired by Art Deco, Egyptian Tomb paintings, Japanese Prints and Impressionism, Daniel Mackie drew from a range of sources to create his DM collection of greetings cards, perfect for every occasion. Originally designed and explored with line art and water colour by hand, he created a decorative, gentle art style that has come to define his cards. Printed on a plain white background, his animals contain their environments within themselves, an entire world confined to the boundaries of a living being. Though his style continues to evolve as he releases more cards, they are all unique and distinctive pieces that will make you wish they could stay on your mantlepiece year round.
