Night Mask, Night Dances by Stephen Mead
Pastel 18" X 24"
Text Description
The head of a woman dominates the left hand of the painting. She appears to be reclining and a butterfly floats above her head in the reed like leaves. The right half of the picture shows three stylized horses in a meadow as if a dream image in the woman’s head. The woman is rendered in flesh tones while the background is done in mainly shades of green appropriate to the leaves and grasses depicted.
