Art (“Esperanza” 36×48″ Oil on Canvas) and story by Margaret Biggs
“Esperanza” was influenced by the Expressionistic Movement of Northern Europe.These artists set realism aside in order to better express their inner life, personal ideas, and emotions.
In this new painting, the trees are sentient beings evoking the emotions of waiting, striving and hope. Together they gather, a community striving to live a life of service, no matter what their occupation may be.
“All human wisdom is summed up in two words; wait and hope.” Alexandre Dumas
“Esperanza” is a girl’s name of Spanish origin meaning “hope, expectation”.
