This painting is a study of an Edward Curtis photograph taken in the early 20th century. Curtis is well known for his photos documenting North American Indian life. He took over 40,000 photographic images from over 80 tribes.
The primary color of this portrait is Burnt Sienna which I used along with Ultramarine, Ochre and Titanium White to produce the skin tone. The drawing was off from the start and I took a few liberties, but I continued forward with what we'll call a "variation." :)
