Elder with Bear Totem

Descripción

A meticulous black and grey piece showing an elder draped in a bear-pelt headdress, layered beadwork, and feathers. The portrait’s wrinkles and textures add lifelike depth while the bear’s gaze crowns the composition. The bear symbolizes strength, courage, and protection, and feathers suggest honor and guidance. The tall, vertical design fits the calf well, creating a bold, reverent totemic presence.
