Laurie Hardin: Corvus Crow

Monkey-Cats Studio

These are the reason for "Monkey-Cats" Studio receiving the name. Pretty cute when they were kittens but they are now 9 years old, still think they are kittens and try to fit in the same spaces on my studio table. For some reason these two have very long tails like a monkey and received the nickname monkey boys from my husband. We are sure they can swing upside down by those tails! Their real names are Jake and Elwood, after the Blues Brothers, because they try to do the right thing but they are just naughty.

Corvus Crow

Thought I would share with you the first crow I have ever created, little "Corvus Crow". He is going to Ghoultide Gathering the end of September, so he will not be available online.

Corvus has a thing for jack-o'-lanterns so if you see a crow flying around with one hanging from his beak, chances are it is Corvus. He has brothers that are equally fond of Halloween so look for peeks of them in the upcoming months!

Have a great week!
Laurie

Keep up the great work!
