Star Love
Star love is influenced by the typical ledger drawings showing courting scenes of warriors suiting
young ladies. Coyote, who was more of a lady’s man than a warrior, would certainly have had a number
of courting pictures of all his loves in his own personal ledger book. Unfortunately his ledger book
has been lost to history, therefore as an artist who cannot say no to a thought, no matter how
bizarre, I have endeavored to recount some of Coyote’s Love scenes. This one is “Star Girl and
Coyote”, one of his more unfortunate love experiences. From this experience Coyote learned very
little except it can get very cold in the heavens and stars have no soul. Also even today when you
hear the coyotes out in the hills howling and yipping, it is because of this sad love affair gone wrong.
Star Love is done in an edition of 34 hand pulled prints by artist, Susi Nagoda Bergquist.
