Raven and Corvid Art Listening To Raven~ Mixed Media Myths and Realities ©Beth Surdut 2008-10
Wildlife Art
Drawing ravens is an intimate process--- preening each bird gently into existence until a unique character emerges from the page to tell me why he is here. These detailed story drawings, created with pen and pencil, heart and mind, are a vision quest expanded by paying attention to small moments.
To my delight, Listening To Raven is inspiring people who never before looked at birds with much curiosity to bring me stories of science and spirit. This recognition of life heretofore unexamined develops a personal involvement with nature and, I hope, set us on a road to saving what is left of our endangered planet.
It is also a gift to me. I am honored that my work is prompting strangers to come to me with very personal stories of connection to ravens as spirit guides.
