Risen

Like the phoenix there will come a time when humanity as a whole must… rise. The metallic silver I think is so symbolic of a fresh new start that out of the darkness arises some clarity with this portrayal. A Raven is an incredible creature of wits, mystery and foresight but I hoped instead to dwarf that spontaneous side and instead capture its beauty and elegance, often overlooked by its mischievous nature so, I choose gouache as the medium its fluidity gave me the foundation I needed for my paper and the representation. It’s a figurative representation of promise.
