Seascape with Cormorant

Solitary Cormorant Contemplating the Overcast Sky
I like the way this painting turned out. It's done in a variety of media. The bird was made from some hand-colored paper collaged after the lonely rock seascape was done and waiting for a few weeks, unfinished. Here are some details:

  1. Like it Rob. Especially the expression on the bird! I like the writing on the paper too.

  2. Thanks Lari. As I stated elsewhere (flickr?) this is drawn/painted in my sketchbook in which I also write journal-like notes, lists, observations, confessions, etc. I like the pairing of text with drawings. Sometimes, they collide. They rarely relate to each other in a direct way.

    Sometimes I delete text in the images I present on the internet.
