Description A cougar done for part of the animals of North America series. If you put him next to the medicine bear you will notice they almost fit together as one piece. I would really like to do an elk but not sure how many people would enjoy it. Guess I will just have to create one and see.

Your pictures remind me of an artist named Alicia Austin, who illustrated some of Andre Norton's novels. The pictures are very nicely executed.

Lovely! Cougars are one of my three favorite wild cats. Snow Leopards and Cheetahs are the other two.

I think I'm a cougar. That's because I can talk to them and they understand me... Cougars are very beautiful, and they have inner power.

I love that you are making different totems, and espesially this one because the cougar is my totem. I am still yet to meet another cougar though... but i can be solitary and wait

I acutally thought i was a Lynx for several months, until i began to read more about totems and saw a cougar on a hike in the mountians; a fearsome sight, but i somehow felt connected. My friend is a mongoose, do you have any idea on what they are?

If that was a print, I would buy it in a heartbeat. The cougar is my totem. I love your native american drawings, they are a lot like what I wish I could do. I have not been able to master the art of biped-animals; but I'm trying.

A beautiful, peaceful piece, this is. Lovely work on the fabric which does make it feel like it's heavier and a tid bit fuzzier on one side - might not be the intention? But it looks so. , great work also on the background which fuses the whole thing together!

Holy great good gods.

It is so incredible to find someone who can create images of anthropomorphics in a shamanistic way. Shaman-art is too neglected.

If this was a physical painting and you haven't sold the original AND are willing to do so, please note me. Even if it's wholly digital, I'd adore some type of a print of it.

(Cougar's my totem, and I'd love to have some incarnation of this gorgeous piece on my wall.)

Did you ever do the elk? I was searching for cougar pics and your phenominal piece caught my eye. Your attention to the smallest details and the appropriate dress for a native picture are astounding. Beautiful work, and I love this one in particular.

you should check out another artist on dA - wolfsjal . i think she has an anthro elk on there (or at least some sort of deer).
