“I have spent many years observing the wonderful and fascinating lives of wolves in the wild, but it was only recently that I realized that the crow or raven has always been right there with them. There is an intricate relationship between the crow and the wolf. They hunt together, eat together and depend on one another for safety. Not enough is known about the ‘vocabulary’ they share, but it is known that the corvids (crows and ravens) are noisy neighbors.

This is one of my all-time favorite paintings. I like to let people in on the wonderful secrets of animal life; I want you to walk away from one of my paintings (or with it!) knowing a little more about the subject than you did before you saw it.”
