online This is an untitled vintage original Indigenous pen-and-ink drawing by Ron Solonas. It depicts a smiling wolf in a coastal birch forest overseen by a crescent moon. People respect the Wolf for its strength, intelligence, and capacity for family devotion – Wolves are frequently representative of strong family relations, hunting skill, good communication, and transformative abilities. Moon is known as a protector and guardian. It is also associated with abilities to affect human emotions as well as transformation, due to its influence over the tides and the colour of the sky. This piece measures 15" x 11", and was drawn in 1996.
