Crows - a Study in Silhouettes
with Doris Ettlinger
Corvids are smarter than your average bird. They keep an eye on the neighborhood. And they're very graphic. That is, they're very striking on the page. Learn to create silhouettes of these canny creatures in different poses. Then paint a dead tree and populate it with a murder of crows. You'll discover that the birds are more colorful than they seem.
