On The Lookout

Acrylic on Canvas
16" x 20"
Sold

I was commissioned to paint a crow... nothing particular in mind. Not even a week later while sitting at my desk I could see some crows gathered just outside my window. I grabbed my camera to capture my unknowing models and see what they were up to. This one caught my eye - he was perched on a peak of ice 'on the lookout' while his buddies mischievously tried to break into the trash bins. I was able to snap 2 quick images before he spotted me, alarmed the others and fled.
