tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25655847620735774722011-04-21T18:26:23.378-06:00These days, there seem to be a plethora of daily painters out there...this is my version. A Corvid a Day... sharing what I find intriguing and inspiring about the Ravens, Crows, Magpies, Jays and their kin. With luck it will be something to crow about. Hopefully, there'll be more raven than ranting about it. At the very least...it should be fun. (and, yes, I know I'm stretching the pronunciation on Corvidae...but I couldn't resist the playful pun)Lyn St.Clairnoreply@blogger.comBlogger151100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565584762073577472.post-66744254246346015852009-04-05T14:23:00.001-06:002009-04-05T14:26:22.442-06:00<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href=""><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3620/3415849504_8dfe220fa0_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"></span></div>Common Raven<br />Oil on Cradled Panel<br />8" x 6"<br /><br /><br /><br clear="all" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2565584762073577472-6674425424634601585?l=corvidaelypainter.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lyn St.Clairnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565584762073577472.post-51088816798879806232009-04-04T17:52:00.003-06:002009-04-05T14:23:16.096-06:00<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href=""><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3404/3413237276_161a80ed31_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"></span></div>Black-billed Magpie<br />Oil on Cradled Panel<br />3" x 4"<br /><br /><br /><br clear="all" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2565584762073577472-5108881679887980623?l=corvidaelypainter.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lyn St.Clairnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565584762073577472.post-51190657817965796432009-03-28T12:02:00.001-06:002009-03-28T12:03:41.543-06:00<div style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href=""><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3579/3392952518_9874567fbf_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"></span></div><br /><br />Common Raven<br />Oil on Cradled Panel <br />6" x 6"<br /><br clear="all" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2565584762073577472-5119065781796579643?l=corvidaelypainter.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lyn St.Clairnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565584762073577472.post-68695879152029199702009-03-27T12:00:00.000-06:002009-03-28T12:01:51.006-06:00<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href=""><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3638/3392141745_90120fb43c_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"></span></div><br /><br />Common Raven<br />Oil on Cradled Panel <br />6" x 8"<br /><br clear="all" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2565584762073577472-6869587915202919970?l=corvidaelypainter.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lyn St.Clairnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565584762073577472.post-356283473591669572009-03-26T17:19:00.002-06:002009-03-28T12:02:08.831-06:00<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href=""><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3636/3388764900_bfdf2d8271_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"></span></div><br /><br />American Crow<br />Oil on Cradled Panel <br />7" x 5"<br /><br clear="all" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2565584762073577472-35628347359166957?l=corvidaelypainter.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lyn St.Clairnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565584762073577472.post-14041964401683798142009-03-25T18:40:00.003-06:002009-03-25T18:47:35.273-06:00<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"> <a href=""><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3176/3386488502_ebfaf700e8_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"></span></div>There is a Raven nest I check on every year...it is in a place where you can look down on it from a cliff top.
