$64 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crows at the Beach 7, 8×8 oil on clayboard I’ve sold the other two of this composition, so felt compelled to paint it again. I find painting ripples a challenge to render and they are quite different every time I do them. When painted on Claybord, it is tougher [...]

$64 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crow on the Beach 6, 8×8 oil on clayboard For the love of crows. They are everywhere, cleaning up after us. This one is waiting for something to eat. I was able to approach within 5 feet before it flew away. It hopped around, called out, and checked the [...]
