You love ravens and it shows, all your crow pieces are really interesting. You made me remember a conversation in Skellig and had to go look for it to share it with you: "Do you like birds?" she said, and she looked at me like something I'd done had made her cross. "I don't know," I said. "Typical. Do you like drawing?" "Sometimes." "Drawing makes you look at the world more closely. It helps you to see what you are looking at more clearly. Did you know that?" I said nothing. "What color's a blackbird?" she said. "Black." "Typical!" She swung round into the garden.
Thanks, Jane, Christiane and Teresa. I'm working a bit more on them today - headache is gone and I'm hoping it doesn't return for a while. I don't know that story, Teresa, is the book called Skellig? Anyone who thinks black is black isn't an artist, eh?

Lovely painting,,,
I'm loving these ravens, Rhonda! Great colors. I hope your migraine is as gone as 2010, but just to be safe I'm typing in a whisper anyway.
Thanks so much, Arti and Lisa :) Lisa, thanks for typing quietly but no need, the migraine is gone now.
