last raven

9" x 12"
oil on canvas paper

I've been doing all these raven pieces, trying to get a good one for a friend's birthday, and this one I like the best. It was fun to paint too.

  1. If the artist's sketchbook is an eye on the world, then your eyes are surely focused on the world around you. Your drawings are impressive in their clarity and spontaneity. Personally I am partial to the streetscapes...my own fondness for things architectural.
