HI! I’M ANGELINE

I’m Angeline Duran Piotrowski. I go by the trail name "Dusty House". I'm a mom, writer, hiking guide, documentarian, and adventurer. I put the kids on the school bus then run away from home. I’m happiest with my house strapped to my back in search of hidden history on the trail. Let's hike!

Royal Eagle is of highest divinity, closely associated with the sun. The eagle is depicted with a double perspective of the head (a traditional Huichol style of representation). The Royal Eagle guides us to see things from different perspectives. -acrylic paint on canvas board -glass crystal accent -12”x12” Now in my Etsy shop.

Blue Deer nesting in a Peyote Cactus. In the Huichol tradition the Blue Deer is a symbol of enlightenment. It leads the seeker through the peyote flower into a realm where one can commune with interdimensional teachers. While taking the plant medicine one sees the blue deer in the flames of the fire. The experience of enlightenment makes one’s heart smarter. -acrylic paint on canvas board -Swarovski crystal accent -12”x12” Now in the Etsy shop etsy.com/shop/eyeofgodart or just link to it in my bio. #mandalapainting #mandala #bluedeer #peyote #psychadelicart #meditation #huichol
