I just finished the 2 flutes that were generously bid on for the St Judes Auction.Both flutes are made from river cane that I harvested while in Florida.The flute on the left is a bird flute done in the key of G. Deer leather ties. Red and black crow beads and crow feathers. The flute on the right is in the key of F#. Purpleheart nest with a deer antler tine totem. Hand knapped obsidian arrowhead at the tip of a woodburned primitive arrow. Deer leather ties with white glass crow beads and pheasant feathers. I hope the winners approve!

Amazing work!!!!

Thanks for the compliments guys!These flutes are very easy to play and the sound is hypnotizing. Playing these flutes is very similar to trad bowhunting. One flings an arrow throught the air to nourish us physically and one send sounds through the air to nourish us spiritually.
