The Owl Was a Baker's Daughter
The Owl was a Baker's Daughter. 9" x 13" acrylic on stretched canvas with a 1" profile by Julie Kwiatkowski Schuler.
Inspired by the legend of the baker's daughter who was turned into an owl for not wanting to give bread to Christ.
Dark, dreamy surrealism in an industrial kitchen.

The Owl was a Baker's Daughter
Work in progress today.
The baker's daughter was turned into an owl, in the legend, for not giving bread to Christ. The legend is most notably cited in Hamlet, in a scene with Ophelia:
Well, God'ield you! They say the owl was a
baker’s
daughter. Lord, we know what we are, but know not what
we may be. God be at your table.
