Description
If you are traveling with us on our Glacier Bay Alaska cruise you have come to the right place! Both the figurative and abstract work of Barry Herem owe much to natural forms and often to essential shapes from the ethnic or “form line” art of the Pacific Northwest Coast. The clap of his wings causes thunder, lighting flashes from his eyes, he plucks whales from the sea and his shadow in flight covers mountains and skies. This is Thunderbird, in varied myths either a female figure or the incarnation of from one to three brothers who have transformed themselves. A universal element in the myths of the Alaska and British Colombia coasts and far beyond into the Plains of North America. Thunderbird measures 11″ x 14.5″ on 14, 16 or 18 mesh mono deluxe needlepoint canvas. Please indicate your mesh preference in the note section at checkout.
