Finished Indian Warrior
Well, I finished the Indian, be it as it may. Karl Bodmer, BTW, was spelled Carl, with a "C" when he was young- then he changed the spelling to "K" later on. Also, later on in his life changed his name to Charles. I don't know why. A very interesting character. I must delve into this man's bio more! Anyway, he did these watercolors of the American Indians in 1833 on an excursion thru the American frontier. It was very difficult to reproduce in acrylic -- a watercolor rendition --- Hence - you have this painting.
