This is the first painting in the Romance Series. The paintings hint at romance, intimacy and a particular way of life or life style. I start with special colors and design the backgrounds to fit the mood of the subject. The ideas burst from there! I find a never-ending source of ideas, emotions and excitement during the creation of these paintings.—Barbara Sullivan

This is a painting of my friend Michael. I found him to be the strongest yet gentlest man I know. His life and love is in the Sonora Desert. He has a deep understanding of natural habitat, animals, wildlife and motorcycles. I have yet to see more work and detail in other bikes that he puts into his motorcycles. It is even a challenge to paint them. —Barbara Sullivan

"The reference for this painting was captured during my trip to South Dakota where I photographed the Sioux and other tribes. In painting this particular painting, I changed my traditional palette of using cool colors in the shadows and warm colors in the sunlight to using warm colors in the shadows and cool colors of yellow in the sunlight. This gave the glow I was striving to accomplish.
