Psychopomp Wall Hanging

[hermeticdog]

My fucking iPhone camera really doesn't do it justice.

I took a rook wing (legally taken in the UK), and attached a deerskin leather loop for hanging, then added hemp cord dangles with domestic dog bone and magatama. In mythology, the rook (along with the crow and raven) is considered a psychopomp, as is the dog. The magatama is seen as the representation of the soul.

Omg. I am now looking at all the magatama, and now I am wanting to work with those ones. And realizing that I'm not quite good enough yet. >D

Now just to be patient until I am. Heh.
