This 8x8 oil on canvas is a study for a larger painting. It is a commissioned birth totem painting for a client, and has the words "On the day you were born, Bear danced to the beat of your song," written along the 1-1/2" gallery-wrapped edges.
If you are interested in learning more about commissioning a birth totem animal painting, or just want to learn more about your birth totem animal,
please contact me. Each commissioned piece has words written just for you incorporated into the design or along the edges. They make wonderful gifts for others or are perfect as a gift to yourself!
The paintings in my series of the twelve birth totem animals, called "The Heart of..." are available as limited edition gallery-wrapped giclées -

"As we learn to listen to Nature, we break down our out-worn perceptions. We find that magical creation is the force of life inherent in all things. And it is this, above all else, that Nature teaches to those that will learn from her." _ Ted Andrews,
