About the Art: Miniature art is an important part of any collection and SmallWorks is your way to begin. Such works are often a collector's first purchase because they are less expensive. A single small jewel of art can be that final, elegant touch in fine décor. On the other hand, a wall filled with framed miniatures makes for an impressive display of a collector's unique style and range of interests. Ravens are one of the four animals that dominate artist Craig Kosak's work (wolves, horse and bison are the others). Each represents a particular connection he has made on his travels. "Ravens guide me to accept my most secret self," he says, "my uniqueness, to celebrate who I am. Experiences with wildlife show me what to paint, photographs help with the basics, then I use my inner vision to idealize, fantasize and anthropomorphize," he says.

"My trips consist of both journeys through the physical world and inner journeys of self-discovery," he says. "My paintings are about both worlds and how they relate. Each trip is, in a sense, a vision quest."

The raven is intertwined in legends and mythology of many ancient cultures including Native American, Celtic and Norse, as the embodiment of secrets and magic, introspection and self-knowledge, traits often shared with the moon in art and literature. Kosak met this particular raven, Merlin, at Yellowstone National Park where he seemed content to pose with his beak white-tipped from poking in the geyser's mineral-rich debris. The plumb line he holds suggests a dividing line between the inner and outer world and also hints at the intelligence and playful nature of the raven as trickster.

This Smallworks™ edition is a jewel of balanced composition and color that will be a focal point in any room in your house. Share its mysterious beauty with friends and family.
