Original acrylic painting with texture (mixed media) on canvas, gallery wrap with painting around edges. Wired & ready to hang.
This piece is the combination of two visions and imagination with a focus on Native American culture, depicting a battle between a young lion and an eagle with an ancestor watching. One traditional belief in Native American culture is that people come back as birds, i.e. eagles, to watch over and guide us through our lives. This acrylic painting includes details carved in texture (molding paste) with pumice gel to enhance the dirt and dust in the foreground, and highlights on the eyes, claws, etc, (gloss gel) for the lion and the eagle fighting the lion; the ancestor eagle in the background is painted with gloss gel added to the eyes.
