Above the Abyss
One night in 2006, I put in a long Photoshop session on the image of the eagle, abalone shell & waterfall for the Chicana Dreamer. Next morning, I was on my way to the wood shop, making the winding drive through the beautiful hills between Lagunitas and Petaluma. In less than the blink of an eye, I was up in the clouds & mist riding on the eagle’s back toward the abyss. It was as if my art had come to life, & I was inside it. The eagle looked back over his shoulder, right into my eyes, and said “Don’t be afraid, I will carry you over the abyss.” Just as suddenly, in the next instant I was back in my car driving through the green hills. I have used several titles for this image, including “Abiding, Indestructible,” and “Above the Abyss.”
