Mtoto, from the Bayou LaFourche Coloring Book, Robert Trudeau

A study of a queenly woman and her attendees that is based on West African ceremonial scenes.

The symmetry of the umbrella, gown and assistants is satisfying. But I realized I have a portrait in my photograph bank that can be traded for this generalized face.

There may be a color version, too.

Looking forward to re-doing this one.
