Traveling Companion

Wild march winds are beckoning me to the pacific North West and I am taking a crow with me.  He, in turn is bearing a sun clutched beneath him, just like he is supposed to, little thief!  over time my little crow will turn many metallic colors due to the reaction of metallic powders on his surface with the pollutants in our air.

 

And here also are two beads inspired by Jayne of Badger Beads.  I like the one with the diaphanous layer of silver leaf with light iris gold and copper ruby frits, suggesting the shape of a fish's body.  And then of course there is red...who needs to say more!
