LineMartel 6,344 Posted October 12, 2013 The Choctaw Nation was a tribe of farmers who lived in what is now the southeastern U.S. until the federal government forcibly removed most tribal members in 1830 to Southeastern Oklahoma in what became known as the “Trail of Tears.” Link to comment
vikingman 0 Posted October 12, 2013 I really love this portrait - the colours are beautifully balanced and the has a very 'full' and complete feeling to it. The expression on the girl's face too is wonderfully captured - kind of sad and reflective. I wonder what is going through her mind? First rate portrait. Regards, Erik Link to comment

Wayne Sadler 591 Posted October 13, 2013 Beautiful portrait. Couldn't have planned or executed a painting any better than this - selection of hues and tonal arrangement and placement of forms. Excellent work, Line. Link to comment
