Description

This is a trilogy of nonhuman ancestors. Cultures that regards some animals as their ancestors and spiritual helper include native American, aboriginal Australian and ancient Chinese. These spiritual helpers are called totem. I created these totem based on 3 characters in chinese mythology. The dog represent childhood, the octopus represent adulthood and the tortoise represent late years. For more of my work: CheukYin Arts & Design

I like how the basis of your art has a lot of substance behind it. It shows that you put a lot of thought into the meaning of your piece and put a lot of research into it.
