Water color & Colored Pencil, 2017
The "Wise Seeker" is a student by choice, not out of naivety or blind following. Her firm confidence in holding the staff symbolizes her willingness to step into her power. The staff in this case is actually an ayahuasca vine, shedding a drop of medicine on the path she walks.
The winged serpent, Quetzalcoatl, shows up in many of Adelaide's art pieces. The serpents in this piece wrap around the 'staff' similarly to the Rod of Asclepius, a Greek symbol for healing that later morphed into the more commonly seen medical symbol. The skull is inspired from Adelaide's deceased cat, in which she preserved the skull in "real life." It will eventually become a part of a wizard totem pole to perfectly suit the 'old crazy artist woman' rumors. The 'Wise Seeker' is adorned in mala beads while holding the mudra for water. In "mudra reflexology" the thumb represents fire and the pinkie water. Connecting these 2 points cools inner heat and hydrates/nourishes the general flow of the bodies systems. If there is one Adelaide learned from her retreat time in Peru it's that when the system is flowing naturally, healing occurs.
