"The Folk Singer"


"The Folk Singer"
36 x 48 oil on canvas , my collection
Well, I found this rolled up canvas in the back of the closet where it has resided for years! I did this many years ago, probably in the sixties! Since I haven't been painting much in a couple of weeks due to Christmas and all the activities and company in the house, I thought I would post some older things. This must have been from my imagination as I don't recall anyone sitting for this. Interesting how the light is from one side and then she disappears into the shadows. What do you think? Comments are welcome! Click on it to see a closer view.

  1. She looks very sad. Must be a mournful tune she's playing!
    Is it Joan Baez???

  2. No one I know! But I did paint it during the "hippie" movement! Interesting to look back, but when one is very young, I think one sees things differently. If I painted her now, she would be joyful and be loving life!
