Raven Bringing the Guitar
Jerry was inspired to create this based on his connection to Woodstock (the year he was born) and to Raven bringing the Sun to the people of the Northwest.
Made with a B.C. Rich Warlock Bronze Series Guitar representing the metal head/heavy metal days.
1920’s Steampunkk hardware – kind of an attitude – like a steampunk attitude of rebelliousness
The traditional motif of Raven Bringing the Sun Mask is made of cedar wood and painted with acrylic paints; the feathers are all waterfowl feathers, and they are accented in between with guitar picks painted to coordinate with the mask.
The traditional hoop represents entering the spirit world and the hoop and guitar picks are ensuring balance and good hunts.
Materials include the guitar, carved baby raven mask, waterfowl feathers, neon metal guitar strings, abalone shell inlay, amber bead, Russian blue trade beads, nylon strap with metal beads, brass hardware, acrylic paint, guitar picks.
