Michael--Your Civil War soldier paintings remind me of the watercolors Winslow Homer did when he was covering the War for, I think, Harper's. His were not as complete as yours, but they still were quite detailed. Your figures are posed in such an interesting way--horizontal movement though the hands, hats, knees and bayonets
Another awesome piece. So glad to actually meet you and your wife in person this weekend in Gettysburg. See you on July 2nd at the First Friday reception at Gallerie 13 in Mechanicsburg.
I just spent ten days plein air painting in Gettysburg, and this just makes me feel as though I walked back onto any one of the battlefields of the 1860's!
Wonderful painting! Attention to detail is amazing! I saw your work in Gallerie 13 today and it was really great to see in person. Hope to meet you Friday.
