Nature's Inspiration

Nature's inspiration

started when I looked up

high in a tree and saw this 

black crow with his iridescent feathers

and bright yellow eyes.

I then found this feather laying on the ground.

A simple little sketch became a dry point print.

My heart was so inspired after an artist friend showed

me the beautiful work of artist, Ann Wood.

After seeing her cute little birds 

I wanted to try making a bird. 

Never wanting to copy an artist yet being inspired 

by both the crow and the artist I choose to make a Raven.

I loved making this little guy.

 The whole process was intriguing, fascinating and truly delightful.

I see more repurposed fabric coming to life in my future.
