Sandstone Bird, Barn Owl by Melvin Sandoval

$ 60.00

A muted yellow ocher, umber and brown veined Utah sandstone barn owl carved by Melvin Sandoval. The salient form is the shape of the owl's face with the prominent shaped beak. The symbolism of barn owls is directly related to their character and how they live their lives. They like to remain hidden and observe their surroundings calmly, leading them to become symbols of wisdom, mystique, silence, and listening. The Zuni believe the owl can see what others can not - they assist in helping to root out deception and they can get to the essence of true wisdom.
