My â7 Generations of Genetic Memory: Xinachtli to Xochtliâ painting got over 1000 likes on Instagram. The most ever for me (Poppin my collar). Since I thought that was cool, I wanted to share a little more about the painting. I painted the first version 10 years ago. Before I painted the original version I was looking for the meaning of life, what does it all mean? In an altered state I had a vision. In the vision I saw two of my ancestors, indigenous men sitting around a fire praying and doing ceremony. I knew they were praying for me. The next day I had a warm feeling, I wasnât so concerned with what does life mean and all that. I knew I was protected by my ancestors. I was like âIâm good. My ancestors have prayed for meâ. After 10 years I wanted to revisit the painting to see how much I have progressed as an artist. The idea for the painting was the Mayan was holding the symbol for Xinachtli (seed) and the little girl was holding the symbol for Xochtli (flower) representing that our ancestors have planted seeds that have bloomed into flowers with us the Seventh Generation. for indigenous communities the seventh generation is important. We didnât make decisions based on what was good for us or our children we made decisions based on what would be good Seven Generations out. We are the dreams the hopes and aspirations of our ancestors. And they are there to guide us along our path.

â7 Generations of Genetic Memory: Xinachtli to Xochtliâ 36"x24" oil on canvas by Jake Prendez. 2018 I first painted a version of this 10 years ago. It was one of my first paintings. I wanted to revisit it with 10 years more painting experience. The idea is that the Mayan is holding the symbol for Seed (Xinachtli) which has bloomed into a Xochtli (flower in the girls hand) with us the 7th generation.
