The photograph of Barbara Mullen in the NYT's obituaries inspired this painting. She was a Harper's Bazaar and Vogue model in the 1950's. I loved the photo of her with the leaves around her head. I took the canvas outside, cut some branches off one of the bushes and started spray painting around them. She said, "moving in front of the camera was like being free".
