Cloudfoot quivira

​

Paintings as performance  in relation to volcanic landscapes: footprints on lava. Watercolors and oil sketches and canvas based works. Ricochet between the Pacific ring of fire and midcontinent ocean-born prairie and plains of Turtle Island: Quivira was the name conquistadors called it,  sites of hellish colonial suffering and imaginary gold.  Lands brought back despite and through the scatter zones.
