Dressed for the Powwow

This is another work from my series of paintings from the Mdewakanton Dakota Sioux tribal dances (and their attending guests from various tribes) that are hosted in our area.  This is a young lady that had just been a part of a dance several minutes prior, and was scanning the crowd, perhaps for those she recognized.  I loved the strong line in the design of her shawl, the light reflected in the white trim, and the arid folds in her scarf.
