SWEET WILLIE

A dry brush watercolor copy of a photograph of SWEET WILLIE, one of my heroes. QUOTE BY EMERSON."NATURE FOREVER PUTS A PREMIUM ON REALITY. WHAT IS DONE FOR EFFECT IS SEEN TOO BE DONE FOR EFFECT; WHAT IS DONE FOR LOVE IS FELT TO BE DONE FOR LOVE. A MAN INSPIRES AFFECTION AND HONOR BECAUSE HE WAS NOT LYING IN WAIT FOR THESE". paintography by MIchael Forbus (miguel)

Willie Nelson a national treasure , Michael awesome effects lovely piece of art. Bless with talent and great idea.

Artist Reply: Mildred, my total appreciation for your kind comments and from Willie as well. He is playing a benefit in our little town this weekend and the proceeds go to a mutual friend whose wife needs a liver transplant and also to a home to take care of aging and indigent musicians. There is much that he does to give back to humankind that is not published. He is a humble and multi-talented humanitarian and you are right, a national treasure. My gratitude to you. Michael
