Artist Steven Wilson and the expressionism of the Navajo woman

 On my last trip to New Mexico I took the back way.  In the fall there are many festivals and on this occasion I came across a group of Navajo women cleaning up the grounds.  I was North of Gallup.  She was standing alone and looking out onto the empty fields.  I don't know why, but I pulled over and took a quick sketch. 

The title is Lewranti.  It is 36 x 24 on canvas.  The materials used are ceramic stucco, resin sand, acrylic, and white flake.
