"Heron Dance" painted drum by Foxfeather R. Zenkova

Mon, 27 Nov 2006 14:44:09 -0000

Jan. 2005 This was a commission piece, the image is painted on a 12" octagon-shaped deer hide drum. The colors and painting are much softer and more vibrant in reality. Heron is a symbol of patience and wisdom. Heron people are generally good orators and leaders, powerful speakers and good listeners. Heron medicine teaches people that good things are worth waiting for, when to speak and when to listen.

"Healing Hooves" Drum by Foxfeather R. Zenkova

Fri, 24 Nov 2006 15:18:03 -0000

Dec. 2004 This is a custom painted drum commission for Ravynwolf. It is painted on a 12" deer hide drum. It has a really high, sweet tone to it, and it's a drum I have been holding onto for over a year, waiting to find it the right owner. The symbolism of the spiral represents a path, one with a distinct beginning and end, but many curves along the way. It is a very personal-relating symbol. The horse represents strength (standing strong but moving forward), feminine energy, empathy, and emotional wisdom. The blue and water themes are just that; a symbol of life, rejuvination, healing, power, and comfort. The real version is much more vibrant in color and detail

Wings Within by Foxfeather R. Zenkova

Fri, 15 Dec 2006 04:51:29 -0000

Feb. 2005 14"x18", watercolor and india ink. There's a lot I could say about this piece - but to keep myself from writing a novel, I will just say this - This piece went through many transformations to get to this point. This originally started as an ink sketch of a piaffe (a dressage move) and then took off from there. I am fascinated with the idea of transformation, it is a constant inspiration I explore with a lot of my art. I think that is part of why I find myself so drawn to northwest coast native american art styles - their bold stylization covers a heavy theme of transformation and connection. Horses can fly without wings, they use the wings within.

Dragon Paws by Beetle

Sat, 02 Dec 2006 02:03:26 -0000

Dragon paws. Five finger and slightly padded for that delightful inhuman look. These specific paws had attached rubber claws which made finger dexterity excellent. I could pick up and manipulate objects with the claws, almost better than with my own naked fingers.

Bone Pick by Lykospira

Sun, 15 Oct 2006 00:00:00 -0000

A bone pick is a creature composed almost entirely of mismatched and oddly sized osteological materials and perhaps a bit of magic. I imagine that they are constantly looking for suitable new bones to expand their bodies. This particular bone pick is wondering how he can best assimilate this beautiful new skull into his assemblage.
