This painting is not typical of my work but while visiting the Seattle Zoo last year, I watched and photographed Uzumma, a western lowland African gorilla. From the several images I captured that day of this girl, I selected and cropped it to show only the pensive look she had as she seemed to ignore the people and stare off to some distant place.
I painted this oil in a bold and rough style to convey a primitive and powerful force that to me the gorilla represents in nature.
