Artist Statement :
"The wolf is one of my family crests from both sides of my family. The wolf is considered very family oriented and committed to one mate for life. The mother wolf is very respected among the family for her nurturing and caring of her offspring, as well as her mate. This print depicts two wolves (male and female) beginning to mate and start a family."
