The inspiration for this epic near life-size portrait was a 1950's family vacation to Arizona. By chance, we came upon a Navajo Pow Wow and as we were waiting for the dancers to perform, a girl about my age peeked out from behind the rugs, just for an instant, to see if they were ready yet. An small moment in time, captured in a black-and-white snapshot by my mother, yet over the years I found myself coming back to it, wondering about the girl and where she might be now. My interpretation of that moment in this work brings it back to life in full color.

The majority of my paintings are created with oil paints; however, I work with acrylic paints occasionally. After gathering the subject matter of the painting, I begin by drawing the images on canvas. The first coat of oils will show the composition and values for the final painting using a monochromatic color scheme or full color values. While the painting is drying, I will begin another painting. When the painting is dry to the touch, other layers are applied using a medium to enhance the flow of the paint and to build up the desired luminosity of the painting. A soft sable brush is used to blur the edges of the background objects which creates an illusion of less depth of field to emphasize the main subject. After drying, the painting is varnished to ensure protection and easy cleaning.
