Hawks as totem birds are mystical teachers known as messengers of the spirit world. The red-tailed hawk has ties to the kundalini or dormant spiritual energy in humans. It teaches us to balance psychic energies. Fearsome bird of prey.
Once again the eyes catch me. Probing, watchful and ready to challenge. Brave but careful.
The eyes are the windows to the soul. I think that if you capture a mood with the eyes you have a painting that speaks. Thanks for your comments. ♥ gretchen

Strength and balance in one painting, that’s wonderful.
Love the composition in this one, Gretchen. What I have noticed most, with your animal paintings is that they all reflect something of the soul of that being really well.
