Once again Mark Nadjiwan has captured the beauty of Aboriginal Art in this ink reproduction. The story of the piece is on the back of the card which remains covered. A lovely accompaniment for a gift or can be framed (5x7).

Homage depicts the simple image of the beaver (amik) at home in the wild surrounded by the two principal elements of its existence, water and trees. The circle encompassing the beaver represents Mother Earth. Above, one can see the sun, which sustains and unites all life and the elements. This interdependence is rendered by the long thin lines running throughout the piece, connecting all of the elements to one another: sun to earth; earth to beaver; beaver to tree; tree to water, etc. The beaver is striking an almost reverential pose as it looks up to the tree.
