Beautiful! I like the softer chest/belly feathers, and the more defined wing feathers.
I've been tossing around the idea of doing a raven watercolor as well, for my daughter. She loves crows and ravens, and her name came from the poem by Edgar Allan Poe, so I want to give her raven everything. lol
Wow! Very interesting! Thanks for sharing this with me about your girl! Unconditional love is so beautiful! I have to say that couple days ago I first red the Allan Poe's poem and is very profound. ;)
