Description
More than just a portrait of a 104-year-old Navajo Medicine Man, I wanted to capture the beauty, wisdom, soul & vision within his eyes, the here & now, as well as the great beyond. Title is part of a Navajo blessing or ceremonial prayer to aid one on their daily journey. Enjoy a fine art print of this original pastel drawing, perfect for any room in your home or office, cafe or bistro, hotel lobby or gallery. Be CREATIVE with your space!
'In Beauty I Walk' is also available in my gallery w-an earth-tone border & title, as well as 'art only', which you can access by clicking 'Previous' just above. Ask if you have any questions!

If you're considering a canvas print, it would really make the art pop if you chose to extend the black sides via the gallery-wrap option!
The original, which sold, was decorated with a double-mat of different colors, with a Native American design cutout in each corner, and bordered by a beautiful white-washed wooden frame. It made the buyer very happy...and I hope he cherishes it for years to come!

You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older. ... You have masterfully captured the beauty of the soul! One of your best, Dear Brooks!
