Arboreal
Spirits X
1997 and 2004
48"
x 60"

These
three silhouettes are taken from those of Arboreal Spirits
IX, but lacking the latter’s interior lines and shapes.
Each of the three is painted in a different solid color. And
each, as well as the breast-like orange hill in the background,
are enclosed in multiple colored outlines, resembling a technique
in Huichol yarn “paintings”. Hot, barren, yet
sensual desert coloration of the Southwest and Mexico.
