Red Flight

Caroline Camden Lewis.   Red Flight.  Watercolor on paper.  15″ x 19.″  (2013).      $ 425 (framed)–SOLD

Against a background of red, black feathers of different black birds make their way across the horizon.  Each stroke variation represents different feathers of three black birds: the American crow, the common raven and the great-tailed grackle.  The flight patterns of these black birds are like a ballet company performing a beautiful dance every evening.  With the eyes of wonder, even the life of the most common and humble of birds become magical.
