As the Crow Flies

10.5x8 mixed media collage on matboard started yesterday and finished today.  There are 3 birds in this composition.  Materials used:
watercolor, stamps, handmade paper w/acrylic, India ink, Staedtler Lumocolor black pen, old paperback novel pages, black felt tip pen. I did this for Sketchbook Skool and any chance to paint crows I jump at usually or any bird.
