+LadeBear68 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I am still trying to wrap my brain around the back, is it supposed to be a dragon in a boat? The front is great. Quote Link to comment
+Clan Doyle Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I like it! Very tribal, and we love the colors. Please tell me you will be willing to trade for other personals! Quote Link to comment
+geocachingdragon Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 The Front is my Version of a West Coast style Dragon Since there is no such thing in Haida Mythology I thought the name or something to call it would be a Spirit Dragon . The back Picture is my art work of a { raven in a black canoe } The Raven is a very Powerful and Wonderful Spirit from Haida Mythology . Quote Link to comment

+geocachingdragon Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 this is the description i wrote for my coin:: "This is my third personal coin and is probably my most personal coin. I grew up on the west coast of Canada and always loved and admired Haida Art. Now, there is no Dragon in Haida Mythology so I tried to remain true to the this style and still produce something new and interesting. The moons and crescents on the outside of the dragon is a doodle that I have done since I was in school and is more my personal style than it is true to the style of art, but liked the effect. The back picture is my artwork of a Raven in a black canoe. The Raven is a very powerful and wonderful spirit from Haida Mythology. I hope this coin will inspire people to look at this style of art as well as read the mythology of the Haida people. It is full of interesting and fun stories of working with animals and the environment, such as we do with Geocaching and CITO." There is a saying by Chief Seattle said more than 150 years ago, but is still incredibly poignant today: "Teach your children what we have taught ours, that the earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth. The earth does not belong to man; man belongs to the earth. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children." Quote Link to comment
+geocachingdragon Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Only three days left for the presale thanks to everyone that may have purchased one Or even taken the the time to look, hope you liked it . Quote Link to comment
