Taos Memento

Just finished this watercolor from the Taos Balloon Rally; it's titled 'Mass Ascension'. It'll fit in one of the remaining sloped-roof areas in our living room, across from our reading chairs so we can enjoy it regularly!

The big yellow balloon features the New Mexico state symbol. This is the ancient Zia Indian sun symbol; the Zia considered the sun, as well as the number four, Sacred. The four points of the symbol represent the four points of the compass, the four seasons, the four periods of each day, and the four seasons of life.
