When I was 13 yrs old I did a painting of an Indian girl and her horse. A friend of my grandmother wanted to buy it from me but I was not going to hear of it. I had painted this one for me! Well when my brother moved out of the house he took my painting with him without my knowledge. When I finally realized where my painting was, I just let it go. I figured if by brother liked it that much, let him have it. My brother through the yrs. has moved around quite a bit and in the process the painting is gone, lost who knows? Now as a much older adult I want my painting so I sat down and tried to recreate the painting I did when I was 13. This is the newer Indian Girl and Horse but the one I did at 13 in my eyes was so much better! Don't know why but I miss the original and she will never be replaced it seems.
