This beautiful maiden is carved from traditional cottonwood root and painted with bright acrylic colors. Her hairand multi colored feather headdress arefinelyincised and Dragonflies adorn her tablita as well as the border of her robe. A brilliant rainbow of all colors, including black and white, shines behind her. She embodies positive transformation and spreads beauty across the planet, something we could all use these days. This unusual carvingmeasures 9 3/4″ long by 6″ wide. The maiden is about 6 1/2″ tall and 4 1/2″ deep. Signed by the artist.
