Rain Forest Journey
Rain Forest Journey, oil on canvas, 22x30" (56x76 cm.) I'm impressed and delighted with the indian women walking along the roads here in Boquete, Panama. They carry children, heavy bags, or just by themselves, in beautifully decorated and long dresses of bright colors. Hanging in front of her dress, accross her body, is the "chacara", knitted bag of a special fiber, which expands as you keep loading it with things. They seem to be miracle bags! Estoy impresionada y encantada con las mujeres indias que caminan a lo largo de los caminos aqui en Boquete, Panama. Ellas llevan sus ninos, o bolsas cargadas, o caminan solas, en vestidos largos de colores brillantes y hermosamente decorados. Colgando a traves de su cuerpo, delante de su vestido, esta la "chacara", bolsa tejida de una fibra especial, que se estira y agranda al ponerle mas cosas adentro. Parecen ser bolsas milagrosas!
