A hooded raven mask worn in reverse. A gold braided tail of raven feathers, tied with native bird feathers trails down his chest. Taloned limbs stretch like craggy tree branches. The Bird Man stands amidst a Mantra of Dream Symbols. A jewel encrusted ram-headed skull a swirls in a trance behind the mind. A blood shot heavily masquaraed eye, with a spider-like pupil, stares into the viewer, while the bird man stands blinded. A striped serpent outlined in black coils as if to spring, while the figures legs are rooted to the ground. Purple hibiscus are and explosion of beauty and love like the tattooed heart on his arm.
