Quint’s original paintings make wonderful holiday gifts for your friends and family and don’t forget one for yourself! Please visit his art shop to see his latest work and some of his earlier art too. All proceeds for all paintings sold through January will go toward the purchase of a study feralvilla feral feeding station to help our outside visitors through this cold winter. We say, “Happy shopping” and Quint says, “Thank YOU!”

Some owls say, “Who?” Our owl says, “Wut?”
