Inspired by a Native American prophecy as told by Lee Brown. This is my Native American Earth Shaman.

All 4 shamans wear the same 4 colored beaded necklace, with the only differences being that the woman have a triangle pointed down and the men have the triangle pointed up. Each shaman also have a Chakana behind them as well as symbols of their elements. I painted each shaman with eyes to see spirit and a rainbow 3rd eye to symbolize the coming together of all colors.

“At the beginning of this cycle of time, long ago, the Great Spirit came down and He made an appearance and He gathered the peoples of this earth together and He said to the human beings, "I'm going to send you to four directions and over time I'm going to change you to four colors, but I'm going to give you some teachings and you will call these the Original Teachings and when you come back together with each other you will share these so that you can live and have peace on earth, and a great civilization will come about."

“To the Indian people, the red people, the Great Spirit gave the Guardianship of Mother Earth. We were to learn during this cycle of time the teachings of the earth, the plants that grow from the earth, the foods that you can eat, and the herbs that are healing so that when we came back together with the other brothers and sisters we could share this knowledge with them. Something good was to happen on the earth.”
