Original artwork description:

The great plains and badlands of the Dakota territories are shaped by the constant effects of weather. In Whirlwind I tried to capture the story of the wind and its impact on the landscape and people. The figures shape is monumental, with simplified shapes and line. Her features resemble that of Frieze sculpture from the Empire Period of the early 20th Century. The art is signed on the back.

Materials used:

oil paint on 12 oz. cotton duct canvas stretched over a 1.5"x 2" wooden frame, acrylic base primer
