Description:
About Turkeman Mother with Children, Lea says, "This representation of a nomadic family from eastern Turkey welcomes the tourist into their world. Note that each greets you with a telling expression: pride, fear, excitement & curiosity." The composition was inspired by a photo taken by the artist while traveling in eastern Turkey.
