"Spirit Raven, Star Eater"
This recent digital painting is directly modelled on one of two rare White Ravens born on Vancouver Island in May, 2008.
Known by the Haida First Nations people as “Spirit Ravens”, these two wonderful birds were born along with 3 black siblings to two accepting Raven parents. What a thrill it was to watch them fly as my friend and I took hundreds of photos and some fun video footage of these rarities.
Spirit Ravens are not albino, although they resemble them from a distance. These birds actually have blue eyes and are every bit as mischievous as their black counterparts.
25% of all sales will benefit the Mountainaire Avian (& Mammal) Rescue Society (M.A.R.S.), in the Comox Valley, Vancouver Island, (B.C., Canada).
They can be visited at their web site at: www.wingtips.org Thank you for helping me to help them. ~ Skye

beautiful skye! ... but you know how I feel about raven (big smile) ...ever think about doing long sleeve T’s ? there are many of us who live in cold weather in the winter that could benefit by long sleeves (grin) ...

Thanks to Zeke, Anita and Spook for your generous and helpful comments!
Spook, I think you can simply select the long-sleeve option when ordering any of the designs. I had already done quite a few long-sleeve displays for my Bubble collection and figured this style might be a good idea in case the short sleeve shirts felt left out lol
