The Sturgis Banditio

The second of my “Stars of Sturgis” paintings. These are portraits I’m doing of the many and varied characters we encountered at the great Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis, S.D. this summer.

This particularily colorful fella had the neatest sombrero which he simply slipped back on his stampede string when he rode off on his motorcycle. I have several great shots of him on the street that I am going to do along with a particularily good one of him riding off with his girlfriend on the back of his motorcycle. Seeing this guy was worth the trip alone.

This is an 8 x 10 ol on linen/panel, framed in a 4″ wide antiqued black and gold Spanish style frame that suits the painting well. It is for sale here in the gallery for $450.
