Description An experiment with paint. I only used bright pink and bright green gouache to make this, it was very fun. Kinda wish I just left the background with one wash, I kinda blocked the ugly parts out with photoshop though. 

Inspired by some beautiful ravens I've had the pleasure to get close to in the North Cascades.

Thank you! I'm reading a very interesting book about the social life of ravens and you can tell who's dominant by how fat they make their feathers look. it's the cutest thing!

Beautiful work! I love the texturing you've done on the back feathers, and the unusual color choices, really made your piece stand out as I was scrolling through.
