Hi Ed, thanks for the comment. Firebearer is very different, it is part of a series I have been working on called Children of the Earth.Each painting in the series shows a creature of nature- Brother Turtle, Lizard King, Butterfly, lizard, Brother Wolf. They are done in a mixed media approach, and all have natural symbol borders. Firebearer is based on a Native American legend of the honor given to the spider by the other animals because she alone could carry the fire to dry land. If you'd like to see the others in this series, go to my web site at allinghamcarlson.com, to see The Children of the Earth. I will be adding more of these soon.
