Fantastic piece of authentic native art by Shane Flood Baker, a member of the Squamish Nation (Coast Salish)

NEW DESIGN: Red cedar panel: Thunderbird with killer whale symbol, on cedar base

Please have a close look at the images and you will see and appreciate the details and love Shane puts into his artworks. He clearly has a great eye for design - this piece of Indigenous contemporary, yet traditional and superb quality of art is outstanding.

Hand carved on red cedar. Beautiful and extremely clean hand painting, the colors chosen are traditional and just beautiful, soft yet powerful. The panel is mounted on a red cedar base which is also carved. Look at the carving lines, so clean, detailed and deep. He spent a lot of time on this piece and it shows!!! It's signed and dated at the back of the panel. Perfect for every fireplace mantle....

Measurements: 13" tall, 5 1/4" wide, the panel is 1/2" thick, the base is 8" x 5 1/2"

Meaning: The Thunderbird symbolizes supernatural power and is believed to be the  dominating force behind all of natures doings. It's  a mythical creature and only the most prestigious and powerful Chiefs are allowed to have the Thunderbird as a crest especially among the Kwagiulth, Nuu-Chah-Nulth and Coast Salish people.
