“The raven has gravitas. It is a bird of importance in the lore of mankind. This is perhaps
because of intelligence as well as large size and serious black color. There is nothing frivolous
about the raven. Even so, ravens enjoy playing, performing impressive aerobatics seemingly
for the joy of it. Their vocalizations go beyond mere bird cries. They seem to almost talk
to each other with quite a complex vocabulary. I have seen ravens all over the northern
hemisphere, usually in wild and remote areas. We do have ravens close to our home,
but usually in the more rugged upland habitat rather that at the seashore. I depicted
this one in winter oak outside my studio window so I could paint the tree direct from
nature without leaving the studio. I chose the stark, white background to lend dignity
to the bird and his magnificent somber plumage.” – Robert Bateman
