Art Design Project #5, Native American Animal Totem Pole Sculpture, Part 8

1 year ago

In this demo, I will add a few more details and then it is finished. Look forward to seeing yours!

Remember as well that the Native Americans used animal totem poles as a way to show their honour and ancestral lineage to their spirit animals. Typically, animal totem poles related directly to the family name. As such, Native American families as well as communities felt protected by showing their animal totem poles as it related to their name and where they came from.

Again, only the Pacific Northwest Native Americans such as the Tlingit and the Haida as well as the British Columbia and Alaskan tribes used these kinds of animal totem poles.
Thank you for watching! Hope you enjoy making this sculpture.
