Kiva

Kiva is the Hopi word for ceremonial room important in the life of Ancestral Pueblo-ans. They believe that the world before this one was destroyed, but a few chosen people were saved, and perhaps, by climbing up the ladder from the smoky kiva and into the courtyard after ceremonies they may remember their salvation from the world before.

St. Foy

Churches are the focal point of small villages and towns, and I particularly liked this one in southern France. I like to use the natural warmth of terra cotta in the buildings since they are the main focal point of this piece. When I was nearly finished with the drawing I realized that it needed a figure in the foreground, and so I found an old photograph of my French grandmother as a young woman and set her in the painting along with an image of my cat Lucy. I think this painting is a good example of the grandeur of church architecture set within the context of a simple village. Sculpted and painted with slight differences as a unique work of art!  Price $1400 size: approx. 14in (w) X 24in. (h). Shipping is billed separately.
