You're certainly welcome.

This is what I had typed into the description: 'Completely beige and black woodcut rounded tribalesque design of a tree. Thick trunk. Tree roots look like dragons. Some of the branches look like ravens. Some of the leaves have eyes. The tree trunk has Celtic Gaulish symbols on it from top to bottom.' For a style, I chose 'raw.'

It's kind of cool to see what someone else thinks of the design at face value written out in detail. When I looked up the design originally, I was looking for an oak tree done in the coastal Salish art style. Here's another example in coastal Salish art

It is The Raven, from the Native Alaskan mythology. The smartest/trickiest/greatest deity. In this image and story, he has a red spot (the Sun) in his mouth, and the Moon (the face) in his claws, as he escapes from the chieftain who held them for himself, after The Raven tricked him into revealing where he had hidden them. The Raven then puts them into the sky, so as to provide light to all of the people.

Thank you for the explanation. All of this has prompted me to read about the Tlingit peoples on Wikipedia. :)

Anyway, I tried with the image. I don't think the AI really understands yet.
