Sandhill Crane as hotsell Totem - Original Art

SIGNED ORIGINAL ARTWORK by RAVENARI

Sandhill Crane (Antigone canadensis) as Totem:

‘Come, come! There is strength in numbers! Stand by me! We'll- Oh? You wish to learn from me? Well, well, but you do realise what you're getting yourself into, don't you? I require your eloquence. I'll need you to immerse yourself in words and poetry, I'll need you to look back deep into your ancestry – and mine! – and I'll want you to look at your bloodlines and tell me if you know how far back they go. I am one of the oldest known birds in the entire world, and here I stand, still a master of timing and insight. We'll have an exchange then, a call and response, a diaphony that extends into the opaque alphabets that are no more hard to understand than I am once you give me some of your time. When you tire of words, we will dance together, and you will see into the truth of elegance itself.'
