gouache on paper ready to be matted and framed under glass

Way Up Taos Canyon, 2011. 22" x 30", gouache on paper. At that time I was reading a book on the Jicarilla Apache and their creation ideas and I figured from the description this was about were the world began. So I had to go and paint there on a fall Sunday. Pilar where my studio has been for 43 years was originally a Jicarilla Apache village. #taos #taoscanyon #jicarillaapache #pilarnm #jicarillaapachemythology #landscapepainting #gouache
