Andean Waterfall Landscape in Purple Shades Oil Painting, "Torrent"

Eagles soar through Andean skies guarding the valleys in Ayahuanco, in the Ayacucho province of Peru. "This is a personal way with which to depict the Andean landscape," confides Raul Cardenas in reference to the purple undertones that color his composition. "I am highlighting three essential elements: wind, earth and water. They are important to the magical, cosmic world of pre-Hispanic cultures."

Titled "Torrente" in Spanish.
