One year during the apple harvest festival, I came across this guy sitting on a bench playing a fife so I took a picture of him. He was not in full uniform but he looked very patriotic. I replaced the crowed behind him with an American flag and thought this was a good one for the patriotic art show at Gallery 13. Stop in to see him.

Great piece Charlotte. See you on Friday!
Very special--looking forward to seeing it at Gal 13.
Charlotte - I am sorry I won't be there tomorrow evening for the reception as I would love to see this in person. This is beautifully done!
And the piper played
America's song that day
While the flag stood guard
Over a battlefield once scarred...
I like the choices you made. I am like you... I find paintings all around me... just need to remember my camera!
Thank you all for your kind comments and Bertie I love your words-they are perfect for this piece.
Great to meet you and see this beautiful painting in person!
