La Paz, Bolivia

 

This scene was on the streets of La Paz, Bolivia. The Indian markets weave through the city from the center and continue for miles. On these streets the artist noticed a tender moment between an elderly couple at the end of a long day. One can feel the lifelong connection between these two as they help each other clean their flower shop. The yellow flowers are shaped in the symbol of infinity; through life’s tribulations one senses an unspoken eternal bond.
