Tikal Temples

The majestic ancient city of Tikal is located in the rain forest in northern Guatemala. It is truly a breathtaking site to see the tall temples poking through the jungle canopy as you fly in. This scene is a view of the main temples in the square from one of the lesser temples beyond.

I painted this for my brother-in-law who also happens to be one of my favorite missionary companions. We served together in Guatemala and each of us, as we finished our missions, had the opportunity to visit this national treasure for a couple of days.
