An illustration of a desperada crouched over a pool of mysterious ooze between a set of massive rib bones in a drought stricken canyon. She is wearing a hat, a handkerchief which obscures her face, a woven poncho, and a shirt and pants with boots. Her expression is furious and pained, with tears rolling down her face. Above the scene is a black moon.

This piece is part of a small trilogy of works. This character is a desperada meant to explore the client’s tribulations in the wake of the pandemic over the past several years. Here we meet this nameless wanderer at a scene of oozing decay and drought, in a world that would rather pretend all is well and leave those most most vulnerable out to dry.
