Passion Inspires Connecticut Artist to Paint Incredible Owl Series

Reading Time: 2 minutes

There is nothing more rewarding than asking someone about what fuels their passion in life.

Passion is a feeling of intense enthusiasm towards something. It’s that fire that burns within.

Passion is what drives me to fill the pages of intoBirds with engaging stories about birds and people who are inspired by birds as much I am.

So when I come across a person with a deep passion, when it involves birds and especially owls, I enjoy talking with them.

And I enjoy introducing these amazing people to others.

I’m inspired by Karen Kent’s passion.

Pursuing Her Passion

When the universal forces spoke, Karen, a former interior designer from Fairfield, Connecticut, stopped designing because she felt creatively stifled to pursue her passion: painting.

Not just painting. She paints the most beautiful owls that I’ve ever seen.

And these beautiful owls are painted by the hand of a person who told me if I asked her to hold an owl, she’d be scared to death.

She doesn’t know what kinds of owls she’s painting.

But Karen doesn’t need to know because she captures the heart and soul of each owl.

Owls Name Themselves

And when she paints owls, they come alive to name themselves with each brush stroke.

Ernesto. Grace. Hugh. Maurice. Sally. Glo and Herb. Poindexter. Christoper. Bryce. Joia. Henry.

Just to name a few.

What’s even more incredible is her reason for painting owls.

She’s painted 35 to date and counting.
