American Bittern (Botaurus lentiginosus)

Women messing with men's heads du jour: Judith, Abra, & head of Holofernes, 1584. By Paolo Veronese, whose day is today.

‘He therefore turned to mankind only with regret. His cathedral was enough for him. It was peopled with marble figures of kings, saints and bishops who at least did not laugh in his face and looked at him with only tranquillity and benevolence‘ ~ Victor Hugo. #BookWormSat 🖼️ David Roberts, 1828.

Strangeness in the Forest of Dean. Children’s Den? Woodwose nest? As I didn’t have to make a choice I decided not to & just moved on sharpish. Also, all the birds went quiet except for the “cronk cronk” of some ravens. If those ravens wanna cronk, you’d better let em (to paraphrase Thin Lizzy)

"..And the cathedral did indeed seem a docile and obedient creature beneath his hand; it waited on his will to raise its great voice; it was possessed and filled with Quasimodo, .. One would have said that he made the immense edifice breathe." ✍️Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre Dame #BookWormSat

Red eye colour study. All originals are in my shop.

An #Edmonton inspired piece. Tentative title “Cult of Public Artistry” - a giant shiny structure? I assume a #magpie would start a cult worshipping them, perhaps. #originalart #painting #bird #acrylic #surrealism
