Three-Quarters View, Peter Passuntino Painterly Oil on Paper Portrait of a Man, 1960s native craft And indeed when they are

And indeed when they are hung and left to balance and bob and turn in the breeze

I have seen a very very close match (same overall design

The green appears to be silk

very very minor

Three-Quarters View, Peter Passuntino Painterly Oil on Paper Portrait of a Man, 1960s native craft And indeed when they areA couple more works on paper today by Peter Passuntino (b. Chicago, 1936), dating to the 1960s this and a second portrait, which I think may both be self portraits but I'm not entirely sure. (Lots out there about Passuntino, including photos.) I find them both very full of life, and tender too, and this one beautifully, skillfully painted, and better in person. 10" x 10 1 2". Oil, ink, watercolor on heavy paper. Very good condition.
