KATHERINE GALBRAITH MONTANA MAN

On a trip out west a few years back, we encountered this very interesting man from Montana. With his snow white beard, wire rimmed glasses, and tall black hat, he was such an intriguing subject. I asked permission to photograph him, and he kindly consented. My background as a portrait artist jumped into high gear as I painted this fellow so full of character, and in such an unusual costume. This painting was featured in International Artist when I was awarded signature status in the Portrait Society of America.
