Whimsical and Colorful Raven and Crow Paintings
I like to paint ravens. They might be crows but I like the word "raven" more. So for me, it's ravens. My newest ones are of ravens sitting in trees. I've been studying native american symbolism regarding the raven/crow.For this blog post, the info on symbolism I gathered comes from whats-your-sign.com. They have so much info on their website, I find it very fascinating!

In Norse legend, the raven is symbolic of mind, thought and wisdom. And in native american folklore, whats-your-sign.com says "Highly enthusiastic, and a natural entrepreneur, the Crow is quite a charmer. But he/she doesn't have to work at being charming – it comes easily. Everyone recognizes the Crow's easy energy, and everyone turns to the Crow for his/her ideas and opinions. This is because the Crow is both idealistic and diplomatic and is quite ingenious. In nurturing environments this Native American animal symbol is easy-going, can be romantic, and soft-spoken. Further, the crow can be quite patient, and intuitive in relationships. Left to his/her own devices, the Crow can be demanding, inconsistent, vindictive, and abrasive."

And they say "other Native North American tribes saw the raven as the bringer of light." And that is what influenced the title of my painting below. I didn't even know that about the raven until I read it on the whats-your-sign website.

We took some cool photos of crows on our drive back up Baja to Oregon. The below pics were taken at Playa Escondida on the Sea of Cortez. They'll be good references for me when I do my next crow/raven painting. I love the bottom photo cause he looks so magestic. He looks like he's on the look out like a sentinel.

2nd Raven Cactus Painting
I finished the 2nd Raven Cactus painting. It's on the right. I felt the one on the left needed a companion. The one on the left is titled "Raven Searches for Home", the one on the right is "Two Ravens Watching the Sunset". This makes me want to do a third one, titled "Ravens Watching the Moon". I love making paintings with Moon in the title. We'll see what I come up with next.
