16 inch Elk Frame Drum - with Mallet Books the wind tickling its branches

the wind tickling its branches and rustling its leaves in the breeze

The living is interacting with a long dead entity and some form of silent communication is taking place or information is being exchanged

I am now pleased to off prints of my sacred tobacco painting

which server as both reminders of the past (what we've lost) and proof of the future (prolific new growth)

A pink rose with a pool of water in the middle emits a glowing seed of life

16 inch Elk Frame Drum - with Mallet Books the wind tickling its branchesThis beautiful handmade elk drum was built from scratch with materials locally sourced from a native drum supply shop in Washington State. It has a suede wrapped handle and a mallet is included, but may not be the exact one in the photo. This is my favorite animal hide to work with. These frame drums are deceptively simple. Their versatility makes them great for shamanic journeys, ceremonies, sound healing and of course, just playing music.
