The Hinono’ei (Arapaho) name for Lichen is bííteibé(í)yookú, meaning "ghost tears". On the faces of boulders, tiny rock lichens look like trails and puddles of salty dried tears. They are collected, dried, pounded, and with water, made into a wash for the eyes 🌾💚🌾

This is a 12 x 18” poster print of my original painting, Lichen. Printed in rich color on thick cardstock, it’s ready for a standard-size frame, or to be tacked or taped in your favorite poster space.

All poster prints are shipped in a recyclable cardboard tube box through USPS First Class Mail.
