This hand-painted acrylic on canvas follows a section of "The Prayer" by American artist Frank McCarthy (1924-2002). A Native American warrior sits astride a brown horse on a dry, rocky overlook, raising both arms in devotion beneath a clouded sky. His sweeping feathered headdress, fringed buckskins, and body ornamentation stand out against the muted green valley beyond. A steep plateau rises on the opposite side, its pale face catching the light above the darker slopes. The unframed canvas bears an indiscernible signature at lower right. The second painting is a large framed portrait of a South Asian, likely Indian, woman resting her crossed arms on a decorated water jar. White flower garlands trail through her dark hair and circle her wrists, their pale petals contrasting with her warm skin tones and the subdued cream background. Her direct gaze and relaxed pose give the portrait a quiet intimacy. A stylized, indiscernible signature appears at lower left. The framed work measures approximately 25.75" x 31.75" overall.
