I just finished this 8x8 commissioned painting - it is a Christmas gift for a little boy born in June, so his birth totem animal is a woodpecker or flicker. I chose the flicker because it is commonly seen in both urban and rural settings, quite often hammering its tune on the side of someone's house! If you are interested in commissioning me to paint a totem animal for yourself or a loved one, please contact me. Commissioned paintings start at $100. My series of twelve birth totem paintings can be viewed on my website.
Birth totem gift items (tiles, canvas bags, calendars, etc.) can be viewed and purchased here.
"As long as I live, I'll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing. I'll interpret the rocks, learn the language of flood, storm, and the avalanche. I'll acquaint myself with the glaciers and wild gardens, and get as near the heart of the world as I can." John Muir
