Well, things are starting to come together a little more. I worked on the Buffalo and the Bear first because those two animals were important to the Native American Indian culture. I didn't even think about the buffalo until recently, but it's an important addition. The cub on the bears back was inspired when I went online to look at pics of bears to see what kind of tail they have. I ran across this charming pic and it reminded me of the little cub that hung over the raft while my dad, my brother, & I were in our waders fishing for salmon in Alaska in 1996. So I added the little guy. I'm not sure if the cow moose will be part of the piece. That remains to be seen. I also made a red blanket but that may or may not make the cut. My original thought was to have it hang over the Creator's arm but I'm not digging that. I decided to add a border so I'd have a little more room for the animals. And I have the cream rope edging may be braided and used or may not make the cut. This piece has been a little more challenging than last year's piece as I did not have a clear vision on what this was gong to be when I started and I still don't. But that's the creative process. Btw, Full Moon was this morning.
