Judy says:

I used as subject a photograph, courtesy of the Smithsonian Institution National Anthropological Archives. The book is part of a set of Time Life Books® provided by Roxy Gordon’s parents, Bob and Louise Gordon.

I chose this Pawnee because of his fur hat, which reminded me of a fur cap that Roxy Gordon, First Coyote Boy, had made for me to wear on cold days.

When one shines a red light on painting, painting becomes very realistic. Learned this trick about using red lighting on my paintings, when I lived at Lodgepole, Montana, Fort Belknap Indian Reservation, 1968 through 1969.
