Mini Wednesday

It's another wonderful Wednesday & I'm so excited to show my latest mini process.

Already you can tell that a bird is emerging.

I'm working with shades of black.

And here's the crow which is the focal point of the piece. 

Here I've chosen a batik for the sky & a mottled tone on tone for the ground. I love all the muted colors and shapes in the pale lavender batik.

Next I've added a horizon line with a trees to add interest.

Now for the fun part. Placement & more details. I find the whole process very therapeutic. If I didn't have to eat I think I'd make minis 24/7.

I've added a rock formation, some sparse grass & a couple of bare branches.

Finally, the shadow beneath the crow. I've name this one "Solitary Crow."
