FLIGHT OF THE RAVEN


My sister's husband was facing surgery for cancer and it was a really rough time for them. I wanted to do something special for him so I told her I would like to paint something for him. They both love spiritual pictures along native themes. She also likes colors more in the pastel shades rather than bold and bright as I usually paint in. The above painting was what I came up with.
Their last name is Raven so the image of the Raven in flight is somewhat symbolic. He loved the painting and I think for a short time it gave him a lift.
They continue to struggle through their battle. I hope they draw some bit of comfort from my painting.
