SUBMISSION: Red Owl by Silvana Silvestre
Acrylic over Canvas. This Red Owl also known as the Madagascar red owl is done in acrylic over canvas. It is the artist's vision of this endangered and rare creature that resides in forest of Madagascar.
The red owl is also known as the Madagascar red owl. It is a rare resident of Madagascar that was virtually unknown from its discovery in 1876 to its rediscovery by researchers from the World Wide Fund for Nature in 1993. It is currently listed as vulnerable because of habitat loss. It is known to live in humid evergreen forest and dry deciduous forest in the east of the island. It nests and roosts in tree cavities and along cliffs with dense vegetation.
Silvana deeply believes in the preservation of all unprotected creatures and hopes that everyone collaborates with the Art4Apes and The Center for Great Apes.
