About Me



NightOwl is a hand-made visual arts publication (collection of mini booklets and various ephemera) which brings together the work of all creative types. The emphasis is on originality and freedom to express personal viewpoints.

Theme of issue one:

Twilight n Soft light after sunset, dusk, evening, half-light. The time before sunrise or after sunset when sunlight scattered in the upper atmosphere illuminates the lower atmosphere and the surface of the Earth.
