This is an illustration created specifically for the United States Stamp Advisory Committee.
I love this, very soft feel to the entire painting. The peak looks so real...I also find the textual quality of the flag very ingenius. Your work is ever to be praised. One can never forget it! Have a wonderful day, John! Hope all is well with you and your family. Sincerely CB
Love the softness of the feathery head... what is interesting is that you created the same softness/feathery look in the flag also! Great look of defiance in the eagle's eye!
