Original artwork description:

The generic name Anhanguera comes from the Tupi words Ahiag̃ - "spirit" + wera "bygone".
In Brazilian mythology Anhangá was a spirit that often protects animals (especially the females with babies) and tends to appear as a white deer with red eyes. One legend involves an indigenous person who tortured a young fawn so the screams would attract the mother. When she came near, he killed her just to realize that the Anhanga had used an illusion and he had just killed his own mother.

Every paleo artwork is hand drawn watercolor illustration made with paints Horadam Schmincke and Ukrainian fine art supplies brand Rósa Gallery on a french watercolor paper 300 g/m².
All artworks are unique and one of a kind.
