Moon Raven Wall Art Gothic Crow Metal Sign for Halloween

Driftwood frame, red-hot wall.

The background is a slab of red plaster, cracked and scraped back to orange in places, with a fat yellow-gold sun sitting low in the upper left. A black raven perches in silhouette on a broken branch that runs across the lower third. More bare twigs reach in from the right, one of them carrying a bunch of small red berries. Around all of it sits a deep, splintered timber frame layered like old barn wood, with grey blossoms tucked into the bottom rail.

The chunky frame, the split grain and the trowelled plaster are all printed onto flat aluminium. Run a hand across the face of it and there is nothing at all to feel.

The colour is loud, so give it a plain wall to sit against: white plaster, bare brick, a kitchen alcove. It leans rustic more than gothic, which makes it a good housewarming piece for someone new to the craft, and a pair either side of a window works as a set.
