A photograph becomes a masterful painting
It is always a special honor when a painter uses a photograph of me as a model for a painting. Alec used one of my favorite photos as the basis for a work. The photograph shows an Indian widow whose charisma deeply touches me:
The dignity of this Indian widow never ceases to move me. A woman who had such a difficult life, yet possessed such a radiant presence – it leaves me speechless.
I took the picture on a trip to India with Ram and Charlotte Bhalla. More photos have been taken which I believe are still current and timeless – perhaps also because I have prepared the images in black and white. Here are a few more black and white pictures from India:
