Soul Mates Paddle

MOA: University of British Columbia

Long, heavy steering paddle. Painted design on one side and deeply carved design on the other side. Painted side features stylized designs in grey and white. The paddle is long, with a wide notched handle at the top. The neck narrows before the blade. At the bottom of the blade, the paddle narrows to a point. The carved side of the paddle features three faces, two of which are anthropomorphic with narrow eyes, a wide nose and narrow mouth. The face at the bottom is larger than the one above. The small face on the handle looks bird-like, possibly an owl? Signed and dated near handle.
