Crusandao / Crossing; 21'' x 28'' oil on canvas


We all endeavor on many crossing throughout our lives. Points of transition, rites of passage. Moving from one place to another, then back. It is part of our nature, our natural, prehistory nomadic linage. Our feet, spirit are at times in two places at once or on a journey returning to raices, our roots. Crusando is such a painting. A woman from one place, returning to her natural birthplace. Yet, she keeps one foot lightly placed upon soils she has learned to love. She may be in a point of indecision but her inner eyes, her instinctual self say, 'go forward'.
