A pink, peach and red siene colored dolomite eagle carved by Melvin Sandoval - delivered to Sunshine Studio in late April of 2023. Melvin has added a fantastic offering bundle to the top of the eagle's back with sinew featuring a large turquoise arrowhead. On top of the arrowhead, Melvin as placed three azurite/malachite beads - then he surrounded them with one clam shell, one coral and one turquoise heishi bead - hand made we are told by his relative; Irma Velasquez. The eagle is the prey God of the celestial heavens - he represents conscious enlightenment and clarity.
