Richard Spare’s owls are watchful guards of the night. This original drypoint print Night Owl captures the enigmatic beauty of darkness. With a crescent moon shining above in the bold sky, this snowy owl lingers between the wise and unknowable. Staring directly at its viewer, the reminder that the mysteries of the nocturnal world hold both wisdom and secrets yet to be unveiled seems unavoidable.

Educated at Maidstone College of Art, Richard Spare has established himself as a renowned Master printmaker. He has editioned work for many acclaimed artists including David Hockney and Keith Haring, and worked with artists such as Jasper Jones. Since the 1980s, Spare has focused on his own practice, creating a signature style that is recognized in its bright colours, vibrating lines and appreciation of everyday beauty.

For collectors of contemporary printmaking, Spare is a joyous find.
