Beautimus! Owl of Minerva pillows

make custom gifts at Zazzle

Okay, so here's the latest Zazzle Merchandise panel from my Jude Cowell Art Shop. Not sure if or when my newest creation--illustration 'Owl of Minerva' as a double-sided throw pillow--will turn up in the panel's slideshow, so check out my art shop whenever you may and browse to your heart's content, 24/7, with no strings attached.

My thought is that an Owl of Minerva pillow is perfect for a child's room, especially one with a magical or botanical theme! And when I have a chance to add to my Zazzle Pillow Gallery, I shall file them in a new Beautimus Pillows folder because that's what I called my designer handsewn line of cushy pillows back in the 1990s!

So look online for 'Beautimus Pillows' by Jude Cowell when your head needs a soft landing or your sofa calls out for a different sort of decorative pillow...

Blog Note: am trying an experiment by adding Amazon's MP3 clips widget in the 'New Age' genre...what else for Secret Moon Art browsing? ;p If the music annoys you please advise and I'll delete the widget forthwith and anon! jc

Secret Moon Art says: Hello, Indonesia!

Today I'm taking note of this blog's Flag Counter stats in the sidebar and Indonesia has visited Secret Moon Art more often than the US or other nations - how cool is that? ;p



Detail of Minerva's Glen, by Jude Cowell 2009+.

Minerva's Glen

Minerva's Glen being one of my all time favorite drawings, I'm adding it here for your viewing or reviewing purposes.

Blending 'real with visionary' somehow seems most interesting to me.

What do you think?

Minerva's Glen

Here's Minerva's Glen (aka, Owl of Minerva) with Owl coming in for a landing. This drawing was originally perpetrated for my dummybook of Pattillo Armadillo who went to NYC but didn't satisfy the Little, Brown editors or their list. One may always blame "the list" for the particular season! And yet a ms must also have some coherence--yet still be unique--to be on a list with other works. It must fit in but stand out. Sabian Symbol "5Sag"> "A Wise Old Owl Up in a Tree." We each have "5 Sagittarius" somewhere in our charts. Where is yours?
