Latest Artwork: Telling Secrets

This latest artwork was inspired by seeing both of these creatures on my drive home from the studio on particular day a couple of weeks ago. I was driving and I looked over and saw a large, shaggy crow on a telephone pole by the side of a road next to a quarry. While crows are very common around here, I can only recall seeing an actual raven out in the wild in this area twice. And then, not five minutes later, a Great Blue Heron flew right in front of my car while I was driving on the highway. Great blue herons are more common but usually they don't fly right in front of your car. So I thought about putting them in a picture together, as both of them are solitary but strong animal totems. In real life, ravens are predators of heron's eggs and chicks.

Or course, a couple of days after I started this painting, an owl flew in front of my car (in the middle of the day) while I was driving back from dropping off some artwork. I think all this is telling me I need to get out of my car and walk in the woods more ;)
