Three Generations

A climber is pictured at 11,000 feet on the Santa Maria Volcano in Guatemala with her baby and mother. She is breastfeeding her baby while using nothing but a bamboo pole to climb the mountain. The ”pillow" on her head acts as their "luggage" and the exotic clothing is typical of the region. My daughter photographed the image used for reference. The Santa Maria peak in Guatemala is 12,376 feet high. 24” x 30” Oil on gesso board September 2021
