War Bonnet (digital drawing)

Subject: singer Christina Fallin of Pink Pony (band).

You can read more about her and the band here.  I am not familiar with the band's work or with Fallin; I was intrigued by the image of her in the war bonnet and wanted to draw it.

Some Native American groups were offended that Fallin posed wearing a war bonnet. I am part Native American Indian (Cherokee  and Choctaw), and it doesn't bother me too much. (Though, if other reports are true, and she mocked Native Americans while on stage a few weeks later, I'm not okay with that.)
