After hearing of Tina Turner's passing, I just had to paint her. This is before she became Tina Turner, when she was still known as Anna Mae Bullock and probably in her late teens. I've got one or two more of her in me yet to do. What an inspiration she was, is, and will remain well into the future.

Victor
oil on panel, 12" x 12"
This painting is in tribute to my great friend Marilyn. She is a total horse lover, and Victor was her quarter horse sweetheart. Quite a handsome fella, and once upon a time, he was a race horse.
