Ravens are amazingly intelligent birds. They can become more than 40 years old and remain loyal to a partner for life.
They spy on one another to find out where the other raven hides their food so they can steal it.
When there is an opening to nab a tasty treat, they are quite bold,  just like Krakar, the raven in my book, "The Seventh Door."

I love and admire these beautiful and intriguing creatures as does Rob Møhlmann, founder and driving force behind the magnificent Museum and  Gallery Møhlmann, Appingedam, Groningen. 
Rob asked me to create these two flying ravens to scale. 
This was an unique assignment, which I fulfilled with a lot of love and dedication.
 I have tried, as a dear friend of mine said, to catch the mysterious magic this bird radiates. 

 

Raven

Mysterious eyes
mirror
the night
Indigo-black feathers
partly tattered,
ravaged
by traveling
through our
and other worlds;
clearly the cloak
of a reckless magician

Your raw voice
scores
its message
into my soul
