Artist's Comments

The right side was cut off by my scanner...sorry!
FULL VEIW PLEASE!
Done for a project in my English class as a final. We had to analyze a theme from the book The Kite Runner...I believe mine were betrayal and redemption.
I really enjoyed the book and thought it deserved a complex picture to express my feelings toward it.
For anyone who has read the book;

Amir - steller's jay (upper left)
Sorab = water rail (upper center)
Ali = little-ringed plover (center)
Baba = Northern goshawk (upper right)
Assef = Skua (lower right)
Hassan = American crow (lower left)

Note; Hassan is holding a slingshot in his claws, pointing them at Assef's face to protect Amir. Amir is about to claw out Hassan's eyes, as he calls to his father. Baba is reaching out to Hassan, while Ali is protecting his 'son' from Baba. Assef has brass knuckles on his talons. Sorab, being so shy, flys away form the chaos to hide.

This is amazing!!! And it fits the book very well! :D

Do you draw birds often?

Can't quite see the slingshot in the picture, though. But all in all, I really like this picture! :+fav:

Tempus edax rerum.
:iconsingswithravens:
YES! It was an EXCELLENT book that I think everyone should read. However, it is quite disturbing in a few parts; you've been warned.
But really, the good things about this book outweigh the bad :)
