Three's a Crowd.

Three's a Crowd!
I painted this for the bi-annual Crow Show sponsored by The Spirit Room in Fargo, ND. It is a watercolor painting on Japanese Ginwashi paper. It will be floated in a matted frame.

This painting uses the symbolism of the moon, sun, and circles representing life. Crows in the American Indian culture can represent the idea of birds as cheats and tricksters; the Old English will connect them to death, or as Far Eastern people believe, crows are guardians of the soul. I see them as frolicking, bobbing, curious and attentive to their surroundings. They seldom are tricked by other entities - - and are quite fun to observe.
