I never lure my animated subjects to come close to me: spontaneity is the key. / / ========================================================= / All proceeds from the sale of this piece of artwork will be donated to: / / Migratory Birds of the Great Lakes / / Wetland conservation is key to the survival of the Sparrow. / / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-——- / Carmen, creator of Art for Conservation
