Winged Guardians of Time

The ravens have found a shiny vintage timepiece. They are attentively focused on the pocket watch, which lies on the ground partially covered in soil, suggesting a theme of time and nature.

The positioning of the watch and the ravens looking directly at it suggest a symbolic reflection on time's passage.

The background and elements of the piece suggest a vintage or timeless aspect, particularly with the golden-brown hues that provide an age-worn aura to the scene.

This painting was inspired by personal raven visits and experience. Ravens are intelligent, curious birds of mystery. These exceptionally intelligent birds have observed me feeding and watering them daily. Appreciating and remembering my generosity they bring friends. Lots of friends and gifts. Some of the gifts they have brought include a root beer bottle top, gold earring, plastic toy soldier, tiny green beads, a penny and a gold rock to name a few.

The ravens are portrayed with meticulous attention to detail, each feather defined and imbued with deep shades of blue that shimmer against the golden backdrop, suggesting a sense of richness and depth. The birds appear curious and engaged, with focused eyes and poses that imply interaction.

The presence of the natural elements like the wood stump and the delicate texture of the ravens’ feathers contrasts with the man-made objects, creating an interplay between the animate and inanimate, the natural world and human artifacts. Overall, the painting evokes a contemplative mood, inviting viewers to ponder on themes such as time, history, and the animal kingdom's interaction with human objects.

The original is 24"H x 20"W x 1.5"D on gallery wrap canvas.
