Puzzled

Has it really been four months since I've posted anything? Time flies and life gets in the way of my creativity, but I've just completed my newest Mixed Media/Collage.

I'm not sure why I seem to be attracted to Crows in my artwork, since lately they have been a real pest in our work parking lot. (Don't park under the tree!) Maybe it's because they seem to have real personalities and they just look kinda cool!

Here is "Puzzled", 16" X 20" on canvas. This painting will eventually framed in a black "floater" frame.

    1. Thanks, Kay! I think it's fun to take something that is normally black or white and give it lots of colour!

  2. Beautiful capture of the iridescent colors in these birds. ... they really are not just black and are so many brilliant hues when in the sunlight.

  3. Yes, four months can fly by in a blink. But worth the wait. This piece is great.

  7. Nice; I really like the background and the use of the crossword puzzles. I like the whole piece actually but the background is what got me to look first.
