Navajo Sisters

Two young girls stand and sit beside a low dry-stone wall in a sunlit desert landscape. A younger girl perches on the wall in a light blouse and gray skirt, while an older girl in a brown jacket and green pleated skirt stands beside her. A hogan, sheep and sagebrush complete the scene in this oil painting.
