Trickster - Archetype of Challenge

Chas Martin

The Trickster archetype is common to many cultures. It takes different forms, raven and coyote are the most common. Encounters with the trickster can be humbling, revealing and usually offer a learning opportunity. Regardless of the outcome. the encounters leave their message.

I do not focus on animal characters very often. I might have missed a lot of fun by overlooking them. This one began, as do most of my sculptures, as a series of graphite on paper sketches. See size and details.

Trickster is one of the new works included in my new book, “VOICES” which is available as a free ebook.
