Tara and Child, oil pastel by R.C. Gorman, renders a tender moment between a Navajo mother and infant with the mother wrapped in a sage green blanket and wearing soft pink garments as she cradles her child close. The composition radiates maternal warmth and protection, with figures rendered in soft, blended pastels that emphasize the gentle curves of the embrace. The lavender and cream background creates an intimate domestic atmosphere. Gorman’s signature technique of simplified form and emotional directness resonates deeply with viewers who cherish family bonds. Essential for collectors of his oil pastel work and maternal imagery.
