Kokopelli

Acrylic painting. Kokopelli is a fairly common subject for the petroglyphs left behind by ancient Native American peoples in the Southwest. He was supposed to be a mischief maker and fertility symbol who loped his way from village to village, playing his flute and making trouble. I have always liked him. Since it wouldn't be legal for me to possess my own petroglyph, I decided to paint one.

Original for sale here.
