There stands Jackson like a stone wall!

More drawings! This time I did a couple of portraits of two Civil War Confederate generals. I am rather fond of both Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson and JEB Stuart, and since my brother is also a huge Civil War buff, and just happened to have magazines with good photographs of them on the covers, I decided to draw from them.

Warning! Fairly large images behind the cut.

Thank you! :-)

I feel exactly the same way. Sometimes when I think of the entire way of life that was lost due to the war, I get kind of sad. The South had almost it's own culture, and it's all but gone now. I never thought to compare it to the Regency, though, that's an interesting idea!
