ALAN BAKER AS "BUFFALO BILL"
This is the first piece of a new collection for Denny. The overall size of this painting is 16” x 20,” painted to the finished edges. The medium is acrylics, laid down in thick layers. This is Alan Baker of Cody, Wyoming in character as a middle-aged, William “Buffalo Bill” Cody. This study was the first of many photos taken of Alan for this portraiture. The greatest thing about this photo, it was totally “candid,” taken on the veranda of Buffalo Bill’s historical hotel, “The Irma,” named for his daughter. Baker was waiting patiently for his turn to play his part in an “Old West” re- enactment when Denny’s wife, Leigh, framed this fantastic millisecond in time.
