THE VALLEY OF HEAVEN
This work is an abstract rendering of a concept from Concow Maidu
Indian culture: The Valley of Heaven. This realm is called Hipiningkodom
by the Maidu. It is a name also given to the Sacramento Valley in Northern
California by the Maidu.
This figurative expressionist work utilizes forms found in pictographic and
petroglyphic art. The prehistorical arts of California have long been of
artistic interest to me in the pursuit of my art.
