Eye on You
Mindy Leitner of Fond du Lac
74 S. MAIN – POCKET PARK
“I have always loved owls. Growing up in Fond du Lac, my parents taught me the sounds of owls. We often went out walking in our neighborhood at night following an owl’s call, hoping to catch a glimpse of one high in a treetop. It was usually a Great Horned Owl, and often there were a pair calling back and forth. To this day, I will go outside looking for owls when I hear them at night.”

Guitar Medley

This painting was created to represent the artist’s love for music. As an art form, an outlet, a lifeline. The world would be a bleak and colorless place without the gift of music. The artist used bright/bold colors and strokes to represent the boldness and brilliancy of this art form as a whole.
