Jesse Littlebird

Tetilla Peak

Acrylic and oil pastel on canvas, 24"h x 18"w, Item No. 21961,

This plein air landscape by Jesse Rain Littlebird, Tetilla Peak, was painted on-site within the boundaries of the Pueblo of Cochiti. The location holds special significance to the artist, a tale he shares in an insightful video here. In Tetilla Peak, the hills and mesas are rendered in shades of gold, while the titular peak looms in the background as a prominent umber silhouette. The sky, awash in blue hues with violet touches, is filled with stark white symbols that hint at the deeper significance of the scene.
