New Crow Collage






At least I think it is a crow, the photo I drew it from did not say and it seems a bit small and does not have a curved enough beak to be a raven, but I love crows too :-). It is titled "Crow Contemplating", 10"x 10", again not a lick of paint, just paper and rust stains and micro sepia and black pens and cold wax on cradle board.
This one was labor intensive, and a labor of love. I included detail and side views, double click to see more detail. I always love to here your thoughts. XOXO
P.S I am tumbling this image for those that like to tumble :-).

I really like it- not just because of the crow but there is something contemplative about the whole piece. You could almost meditate with it.

Annie said...

Annie, I'm loving this work. It is so earthy and peaceful. I love your lines and circles. Masterful.

And I love the tea bag colors

Xoxo

Annie said...

Kj, Thank you sweetie, I actually did not use any tea, I used rusted bits and vinegar, tea makes it much darker than I sometimes want.
Calm and peace are my words for the year, so I think my art is reflecting that. xoxo

Super Annie! This should sell on Etsy!♥

Annie said...

Lo, Thank you, it has not been put in ETSY yet, but hopefully you are right, not much is selling at the moment. xoxo

Annie said...

Angela, Thank you sweetie, strange that after I sign in the comment disappears and there is never that message that my comment will appear after approval, so I always think it has been disappeared, sorry to be leaving two comments each time :-).

I know I've said this before, but I love the sense of language that you get with your lines. Maybe the crow is talking. These colors are beautiful! xo

Hi Annie... just stopping by to say hi & see what you've been up to & you've been up to a lot! I scrolled thru many of your recent posts... but I think this one is my favorite! I love it! I also love that Motherwell quote :)
It looks like you have been well & happy doing the things you love & that is good stuff. Life has been crazy & crazy busy. My things are now in storage & I'm in a 3 week sublet. Singlehandedly moved all my stuff while working & clay class... I am exhausted! Hope to get a post up soon.
Stay warm tonight- after temps in the 80's this week, back to sub freezing tonight!

Annie said...

Pam, You always have the best insights! xoxo

Becky, You have been on my mind, not wanting to call you because I know you have had so much to do. I hope you find a home soon!
It was freezing this morning!
xoxo
