Xochitl - Flower and Song Study, 2026, acrylic and oil paint on canvas, 8x10 inches.
This painting draws from the Mexica philosophical concept of in xōchitl, in cuīcatl, or “flower and song,” a metaphor associated with poetry, art, beauty, and the search for truth in an impermanent world. Through this idea, creative expression becomes a way of reaching toward something meaningful and enduring, even as life itself remains fleeting.
