A hand-carved wooden figurine of an owl, meticulously shaped using the Ukir technique into a solid, upright ovoid form that rests on a rounded, obsidian-black base. The piece features a rich mahogany brown body that transitions into a wide, heart-shaped facial plane finished in a weathered sage green and ochre wash. The large, expressive eyes are rendered with concentric rings of crimson and black, creating a bold, watchful gaze that is complemented by a small, pointed orange beak. Detailed brushwork is visible on the base, where pale yellow Titik (dotted) accents represent the bird’s talons, resulting in a rustic yet spirited artisanal object that blends traditional Balinese carving with expressive, nature-inspired folk art.
