If Crow Would Come

 



Julie Devine, If Crow Would Come, 2012
Oil on Canvas, 20" x 22"

 

It's taken me a while to photograph this painting. I wasn't sure how I felt about it, so I turned it backwards toward the studio wall for a couple of months, then came back to it. I like it.

My son calls it "the white one" or "the one that looks like snow in the sky." It's another canopy painting. It makes me think of our wild friend, the crow, who's adopted our family and visits for food and entertainment. I check the skies for him and often see his black wings in the corner of my eye.
