The Totem Animal Series
All rights reserved - Images/text Copyright Suzanne Grover
... It is believed we all have a group of animals to whom we are spiritually linked called our totem animals. They walk with us through life teaching, guiding and healing us. Find your totem animals here, or contact me to commission an original totem illustration all your own. Each totem comes with a story of each animal's spiritual attributes. Prints are $45 (free shipping in the US). Proceeds go to wildlife and companion animal rescue. Each print is hand-signed on 11"x17" cardstock.

Military Art ~ The "So Long" Series
The So Long series began as a tear-soaked sketch I drew on the back of a piece of mail just before troops were being sent to Iraq. It's about seperation from the ones you love, and how time is so precious. Home Safe was inspired by the words family members painted on sheets draped over the fences around Camp Lejeune, NC to welcome their loved ones back home. Always Faithful is a Marine Corps slogan and I thought tying yellow ribbons around a tree would be perfect for showing ones' loyalty. In each print, there is a spot for couples to "carve" (print with a permanent marker) their own initials on the tree. Proud Mom is a actually my own rendition of The Blue Star Service banner with the star as a picture on mom's t-shirt and the window as the red border.
After I created these four drawings, the Marine Corps Exchange Service decided to sell a limited amount of prints around the country for about two years. The series is not available in stores at this time, and the Higher Power Illustration has never been released until now. That one is available only in USMC version. I hope you enjoy collecting the series or giving them as gifts to your veteran friends and loved ones.
