Artwork Description

I was thinking of my grandmother on my mum's side and how much I missed her. So I reproduced this trendy symbolic Mayan Crane in her memory. My grandmother was from Merida, Yucatan, and she spoke much of the Mayan culture when I was a child. She told me that the Crane is a a unique bird that symbolises the power of emotions and creativity. I think I believe it.
I drew the Crane with shorter legs, because my grandmother had shorter legs, but strong.
Ready to frame.

Artist Bio

For most of her working life, Patricia Concha has worked as a psychologist and social educator. She is now retired from her academic career.
When her mum became ill with breast cancer, Patricia began making doodles to make her mum laugh again. After her mum passed, Patrica then cultivated her newly found talent in watercolour and pencil portraits and abstract art, containing an intricate array of geometric shapes, doodles, squiggles, and distinct lines. Also, she has a flair for creating a story within the animals, faces, birds, and flowers she draws.
Patrica's eclectic art captures a collection of abstract, portrait, and pop street art drawings, and linocut, drypoint and photopolymer etchings.
