"Honest Abe"

2004/07
Acrylic and graphite on illustration board
20" x 28 1/4"
Collection of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library in Springfield, Illinois.


This is a portrait of Abraham Lincoln and I used the well-known photograph of him taken in 1863. I gave him a little softer look but still tried to keep some good details in the skin, eyes and beard. The painting now resides in the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library in Springfield, Illinois.

Here is a detail from the painting.

Prints of this painting are now available!

Printed on acid-free paper using fade-resistant ink, great care has been taken to capture every detail.
