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.

8-D Oooohhh!!! I didn't know that painting was here in the US! OH now I absolutely have to go there!!! I adore this portrait, like it's any secret, lol. Thank you very very much for the photo, Jen! ;-P

You know, I recently watched a show on the French Revolution, and did you know the guy who painted it, David, later was responsible for the beheading of Lavoisier? The butcher!
