The Owl's Cry That Whews Aloft. By Jamie Poole Signed poster print A3 sized (including a white Boarder) On 250gsm paper with a silk finish. Yum! This is a 'painting' made using collage techniques from the words of the famous 'Northamptonshire peasant poet' John Clare. To make this artwork I printed the poem in a range a up to date and trendy colours and then cut, ripped, arranged and glued the words into these inspired designs. My inspiration comes from nature and wonderful lino cut print making that I admire. The words of the poem add a bit more magic to my imagination and allow you to see into the world of the poet and me - the artist! I hope you love this design and would love to find out how it looks on the wall of your home too! The Fern Owl’s Nest The weary woodman rocking home beneath His tightly banded faggot wonders oft While crossing over the furze-crowded heath To hear the fern owl’s cry that whews aloft In circling whirls and often by his head Wizzes as quick as thought and ill and rest As through the rustling ling with heavy tread He goes nor heeds he tramples near its nest That underneath the furze or squatting thorn Lies hidden on the ground and teasing round That lonely spot she wakes her jarring noise To the unheeding waste till mottled morn Fills the red East with daylight’s coming sounds And the heath’s echoes mocks the herding boys
