I painted this for a class project called the "Three-headed Portrait." I used a cropped version of a photo I had taken in China of a class of school kids on a field trip to the famous Three Pagodas near the town of Dali in the Yunnan Province. Only when I zoomed in did I notice the face on the baseball cap that looked like it was floating in space. I thought it could serve as the third portrait in my composition and an amusing counterpoint to the serious expressions of the two kids.
