Ogre Woman Kachina

Ogre Woman
8 x 10
oil on canvas
not for sale
This is a painting of one of my favorite kachinas, an Ogre Woman. I bought her in Albuquerque. (She is a fairly old one.) I chose to paint her at an angle as she hangs on the wall.

    Haha , I DON'T sew. Actually kachinas are carved from the root of a cottonwood tree. This one has string hair and feathers sticking out of the ears.

    I love this one Doug. Your palette is wonderfully subdued, a beautiful shadow, alot of mystery portrayed.
