killer whale

Haida Gwaii. Haida are some of the best artists in the "primitive" world. Their art has been called "The most sophisticated" of all the primitive styles. This image is of a killer whale (orca). The little red "feather" at the top represents the vapor from the "blow."

Reminds me of art I've seen at Swinomish, and the Quinault Indian Nation...
