Rio Grande Angel


 
 
 

This is the Huge indigenous feminine presence that seems to hover above the Rio Grande Gorge and Taos Valley. She is both severe and protective. This gorge cleaves the valley in two. Taos is placed between the Sangre the Cristo Mountains and the Gorge, mediating between two poles. No wonder it crackles with energy both deep and high. Her wings are actually the spirit birds and her halo is the full moon embedded in stars. The dimensions and elements blend seamlessly through the ages.

This one is in the collection of Alice Fenton
