The Compleat Crow
256. THE COMPLEAT CROW - An acrylic painting on a 16 x 20 size canvas board. It appears on the dust jacket of, "The Compleat Crow," by Brian Lumley, published by Ganley in 1987.
This painting was done using only one color, a bluish-purple hue, because the publisher could not afford paying for a full-color process. It was my intention, when I got it back from the publisher, to tint the painting with other colors. But I never did, I decided that the scene was a darkened room in which colors would be very subdued, the time and effort would be better spent working on another project.
