Pulp Painting - Crow Divination Series

In this series of pulp painted crows, I combine an image of the crow with a watermark of a Viking rune.  Runes are symbols used by the Vikings which are imbued with a particular meaning.  I put the bird in a posture to emphasize the meaning of the rune.  When the piece is backlit, the rune symbol reveals itself as a watermark.  Read more about this series on my blog.
