Dancing Bear Drum by Herb Rice

This Dancing Bear Drum is 14" in diameter.  It is constructed on a woodframe with a raw hide stretched over it.

In Herb's Coast Salish culture, the drum is used in traditional ceremony.   The drum represents the heartbeat of our mother, The Earth.

The painting depicts a bear dancing with an eagle spirit filling his body.

The bear represents strength and wisdom and carries the teachings of the ancestors.

The eagle spirit represents freedom and vision.

The drum and the interpretation are the creation of the artist, Herb Rice.
