Description
The basis of this piece is a piece of a map, a map called the "Pilot Chart of the North Pacific Ocean," printed in 1944 by the U.S. Navy. I got it at a flea market. Other items are a star chart, a crow I photographed on the Oregon coast, a diagram showing how a seagull flies, foreign currency, and more. What I like is how the crow, dark as night, stands out against the star chart and the map.

Love how there is no colour to distract from the wonderful detail. Beautiful work.

I hadn't thought of color being a distraction, but you're absolutely right. Thank you, Jan.
