Thanks SJD, I did work on the sky a lot, getting rid of the horizon. The folded flagpole makes an interesting triangle shape. 🙏🐦‍⬛

“Crows on a flagpole” acrylic on canvas
Along the coast you can see flagpoles that fold down for the winter, I added the 2 crows, maybe looking ahead and behind.

Very nice!

Thanks tee, an older piece that I saw again recently, it was a rougher linen, so I let the paint talk a little more, somewhat looser.
Nice pic of the late roses brought indoors, apt symbol for turning into a new season!

Thanks paint ! 🙏
