Description
I admire anyone who has the patience to make this kind of art on a regular basis. Shading using only lines drives me crazy after a short while, though I imagine the process could be meditative for some.So, the crow. A bird considered sacred to Apollo, who turned the bird black (which was previously white) for bringing him the bad news that his lover Coronis was having an affair with Ischys.
Ink on handmade paper, 8x11 inches, reference photo used. [link]

Hi I have a small band out of Dundee IL I am releasing my second single. Was wondering if I can use this as a cover only manipulating it slightly? I only sold 6 copies of my last single and I do it just for fun ie. I don't make any money and this will get very little exposure. Is it possible to use it? PS. Great work!

Sorry, this one isn't available for use as someone else has bought the rights to license it from me.

Great work! I like it very much and I also used this motive to practice my handling of pen and ink. The result can be seen here . I hope you're ok with it.

That's great, I don't mind at all. Thanks for showing me, I think you've done a good job with the line work and shading.

Hey, I was thinking if I can do a tattoo of that drawing, it has cool shapes and I really liked, I was looking for something that meant "key of the intelligence", and the design simply captured it.

Hi! I was wondering if you minded if I used this as my book cover on my Nanowrimo profile page. I would give credit and link back to your page. It would just be for personal use/inspiration. The book is called "The Crow and the Key", so you can see why this image would be perfect. It's beautiful.

Oh my god! it is too beautiful!
I love this drawing, the crow is my favorite animal, I'm crazy!
I do not know very well the draw so I drew the shape ...
I would never have the strength and patience to draw that. u_u

This is amazing. Your eyes must've been driving you nuts after all this. I know my eyes go bleary after a long bout of drawing or writing. Beautifully done.

That's usually the case, especially with ink drawings. I have a hard time focusing properly afterwards.
