Original Norval Morriseau painting...

that my mom has owned for at least thity years. Untitled stack of birds, perhaps crow family. Different "bird family" motifs are a common subject for Morriseau.
At times when NM couldn't afford 'archival' quality art materials he would paint on whatever was handy, with a limited palette; this piece is red and black acrylic or watercolour on acidic 'kraft' paper.
Pic is a scan of a polaroid, will post a better pic when I get a new digital camera.
