LIBERTAD Ornaments

LIBERTAD is an oil painting on wood panel and is available as prints. This painting was created in honor of all the immigrants seeking asylum and a safer life in the United States. The painting shows the quetzal bird flying above the mother, Guatemala’s national bird and symbol of freedom as well as the many beautiful flowers and familiar plant life of Guatemala. The blue jay flying above the boy symbolizes the spirit of bravery and intuition to follow the right path. The inner landscape and sole man in a small boat represent the challenges a person faces in adapting to a new culture and the roots under their feet symbolize their search to feel rooted and safe. The butterflies symbolize transformation and migration reminding us that immigration is an ever happening occurrence throughout human kind, throughout time, all over the world.

These eco-friendly ornaments are made from 100% recycled aluminum. Hang them on the wall, your holiday tree, or here’s an idea! String them onto a pretty ribbon to make a necklace. Each ornament has a symbolic image on the back that comes from each work of art. Collect them all or give them as gifts to those you love.

All profits from this painting go to Hearts In Motion, a humanitarian organization that provides medical care, education, and human dignity to families in Guatemala.
