Inspired by my studies of Ancient American (Mayan and Anasazi) art and archaeology, I use the jaguar, the bird, the snake and man in metaphoric allegory to parallel the four stages of life. All ideas and expressions in my artwork and in my thesis paper are personal and represent my own view of life.masters thesesZIPJPEGengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
