Alice Neel


Charcoal of Alice Neel by Trisha Lyons, 9 x 12 Paper $25
She painted this....

which I have admired many times at the Speed Art Museum in Louisville.
She also painted many other portraits of all walks of life.

She was an original through and through. 
I dig her style and independence.

(note: I am on tree 4/10 and portrait 1/10 in the Series of 10)
