Where shall I wander?
to the banks of the Avon
a taste of freedom

- on seeing a domestic goose feeding free on the banks of the River Avon – an escapee? certainly not something you see all that often.

Mr Crawls’ work is always a pleasure to find, but not only that, there is a sense of fun with each of his bird characters, and the effect his pieces have on me is similar to the sensation I get when I find anything by Mr Underbite. Their concepts, although with different characters, have many similarities, and both present their heroes with a certain amount of pathos.
I am a bit disappointed that I didn’t get to photograph this one a little sooner because it has been tagged a little and it looks like some posters were plastered over the top of it too. This character is a goose wearing a rather warm looking hat. I imagine that the goose is resting from a cold weather migration – he reminds me a little of a WWII pilot, if you know what I mean. Nicely conceived and painted – lots more from the artist in my archives.
