TUZIGOOT - 7 x 15 pastel

TUZIGOOT
7"h x 15"w pastel
12"h x 20"w, museum glass + silver frame

I've just returned from visiting dear friends, 
which was an impetus to reflect on the past. 
Not only of my fortunes of such wonderful friends, 
families and opportunities, but also of the many 
historical discoveries through my meanderings. 

Tuzigoot National Monument is one such place and
 is located 90 miles north of Phoenix, near Clarkdale.
The ancient pueblo comprises of 110 rooms 
and dates back to 1000AD.
 By 1400 all life vanished.

As National Monuments, please treasure your friendships.

    A thoughtful post and stunner of a landscape! I can feel this light dry air and the path up through the rocks is super.
