Africa

(8'x7') The first one. I adapted a portrait of a Burundian woman I had from a trip to the area because she had good lines on her face and good folds in her shirt and scarf. It was stream of consciousness and it took all night. Due to popular demand, the eye was removed from the composition. No one liked it but me.

I wonder if the eye might click if it was a left instead of right eye. There's definitely something great about it being part of the composition.

Really enjoying your work Hosmer. More, more!
