My Halloween Illustration of a Raven

Last weekend I went to CVS with my mom and saw a Raven eating tater tots in the parking lot. All week the Raven has been stuck in my mind, so today I decided to paint it. Although it was doing something so unappealing, like eating someone's left over fast food, I still found the creature to be very glamorous.That is why I chose to leave the tator tots out of the picture. I decorated the background with splotches of red ink to give the piece a more sinister feeling in honor of Halloween.
