What is it about October that seems so well suited to the raven and all it has traditionally symbolized — thoughts of mortality, loss, longing, and loneliness and sadness of the shorter days to come.

Is it the proximity of Halloween? Maybe it’s as Edgar Allen Poe said, the raven  symbolizes “Mournful and Never-ending Remembrance.”
Is it the closing of the year, with its shorter nights and falling temperatures that force us indoors to ponder such thoughts?

Embrace the season and create your owe painting to perfectly evoke Poe’s, The Raven.
