Betty Reid Soskin Watercolor Portrait

Betty Reid Soskin was an amazing human, and she recently passed away. She was the oldest national park ranger - taking the job at 85 and retiring at 100! She worked at the Rosie the Riveter WWII museum in Richmond, CA. She was also a talented musician, civil rights activist, and mother. Shortly before her death, I felt inclined to paint a portrait of her in watercolor. This is on Arches paper. This is a work in progress, as her badges and background are still being worked on.
