I know I have other work to do right now, but Chipmunk (the totem) has been coming around and pestering me for a few days now, and yesterday was -insistent- that I draw him. So I did this little ACEO just for Chipmunk.
Chipmunk medicine teaches about many things, including independence, curiosity, fearlessness, observation, self discovery, and playfulness.
Chipmunks are also the most obnoxious, adorable rodents -ever-.

Edit: Oh yeah, the little things attached to his head are insect wings. I figured a little shaman like that would adorn himself with insect wings instead of feathers, though he could have had really small feathers. Insect wings just felt more...right.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
