Ravenous

oil on wood panel, 9" x 12"

This palette knife painting of a raven eating a spider must have come from my subconscious mind.  A psychiatrist could probably have a field day with it, since I was working intuitively and not terribly concerned with accuracy or detail.  Still, I'm pleased with the bird and the overall composition.  For this one, I used a limited palette of ivory black, ultramarine violet, naphthol red, and yellow ochre, plus white.
