IF - Sour

July 9, 2008

I am stretching the point this week. We have a lot of crows around, in fact we have a lot of crows around all the time. You see them eating all the time. I don’t know if they would attack ‘lemons’ or not. They hang around where ever there is food, like picnic grounds, school yards and paddocks.Hence the crow, picnic pattern and plate of lemon.

That looks great. I miss the sound of crows now that we are living in the city. Out in the country, particularly when we’re camping, their sound really makes me slow down and relax. I am trying to look closely at the piece you did and figure out just how you did it.It looks wonderful.

I love your crow illustration!
Last summer I saw a pair tormenting a squirrel.. not hurting, just tormenting! Then they flew away!!

Lovely illustration. It is great you have drawn out of the square too! It think the very geometric background contrasts brilliantly with the realistic style crow. Thanks also for your nice comment on my blog, it is great to get the encouragment on IF hey? Keep up your fantastic work :)

Crows and Ravens are my favorite birds. I love the blue-blackness of them and their mystical qualities.
Very striking image!

Oooh, this is lovely. I love ravens and crow, even though they can be a bit pesky at times. There is one huge raven that sits in our tree and torments my kitties, hee hee.

Your illustration really captures their mysterious beauty.

This is a fabulous illo.

I love crows - jackdaws, ravens, carrion crows, magpies, the elusive jays.

I’m always really pleased when i see them. Unfortunately, they aren’t easy to photograph

I love crows! Have you illustrated any work by E. A. Poe?
