Emu as Totem

Emu is a powerful teacher and animal guide, not just in Indigenous paths, but also in contemporary spiritualities. The emu teaches the value of fatherhood and paternity, and in the deck represents an epitome of spiritual achievement and accomplishment.

thank you! it's a tad darker in real life (the greens are more saturated / jadey), but I like the way it scanned too. :D

Absolutely gorgeous, as all your work is! It reminds me of a pair of emus I used to work with. You made him look so noble :)

thank you! I love emus, I'm hoping to own some one day, but that's far off in the future.

As always, wonderful colours! The brown is so... emu.
The markings and the sparkle... wow :) And I´m not going to say a word about the blue since you already know it´s awesome.
