Description ...While I pondered, weak and weary, these lonely Ravens, nothing more.
      For the last 8 weeks, I sat an looked at the first pour, and had not the energy to
lift a brush to finish it. Our trip to the North Shore of Superior, brought me in contact
with a beautiful Raven, stuffed by a taxidermist, and found to photograph easily in the
Interpretive Center at Gooseberry Falls. That became the catalyst for this
       WATERCOLOR with some PRISMACOLOR PENCIL, on 18x24" Cold Pressed Paper

I truly love all your work, but have to be picky, lest I favourite everything you do.  

This one speaks to me mostly, I think, because of my love of texture, watercolour, and ravens. Absolutely beautiful work.

Thank you. Certainly, not one of my faves, but it surely has caught the attention of others.
I think I paint for the textures and feel of WATERCOLOR. Subject doesn't matter much to me.
Kind regards....Richard

It's funny how it's usually the pieces we don't care for as much that others latch onto as the pinnacle of success. My nine year old greatniece recently started making earrings to sell, and it was her favourite pair that sold last.

Have a beautiful day.

THANKS so much Trish. I like them too. Their
numbers have dwindled. And speaking of the UK,
last night Public Tele started running the 4th(?)
season of Death in Paradise The TV
magazine made no mention of running this new
season....totally surprising. I love Ben Miller, and
I knew he killed with an ice pick in this first episode
of the 'new season.' Now, he's back in England to
be with his family. And I really like the new DI....
Tanks Again......

Amazing work!
I like how an encounter with a taxidermist summoned your watercolour into life.

Well, I never really went to visit the taxidermist... but I did visit
the Gooseberry Falls Interpretive Center on the North Shore of
Lake Superior. Where I found his superb work. THANKS MUCH....
