soft pastels on pastel paper 13×19in.
the flower girl in Varanasi, India is part of the series People and Places.
this beautiful girl was inspired by the flower girl who accompanied us on the boat on the Ganges.The guide was from the cast of priests and he did the chanting while the girl was letting flowers and candles float in the holy waters.
