This painting is my creative memory of Xel-Ha near Cancun, Mexico. A few years ago I went to this area and Xel-Ha is a "natural aquarium." It's a beautiful place where a river meets the ocean.

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to everyone, especially those of you that have been following this blog.
