Straight and Narrow

I'm not sure if these are ravens, crows, grackles... but I love their attitude. Such characters! This reminded me of performing on the balance beam in my younger (much!) gymnast days. I'm pleased with the contrast of the soft background grays. Here's some fun painting music.

Identity
"If I were a raven
I'd be so much bigger.
If I were a crow,
my eye wouldn't show.
So call me a grackle
with a that a dude attitude,
just a common grackle
(Quiscalus quiscula),
well oiled, canvassing
this neighborhood,
where they don't
even know my name,
damn artists."
