Description
General Washington was known as a prayerful man especially privately, and sought aid from a higher power for guidance. Painted on a Wacom tablet. David modeled a Washington character then posed him and his horse for a 3D rendering which he then used as reference for this painting, one of his first models.
David finishes his prints in very high resolution, so even large size prints will have great smoothness, sharpness and details. His monitor is color calibrated, so for a person viewing this image with a calibrated screen, the ordered print will look very close to it. Visit the LouBear Pixels gallery, loubear.pixels.com, for many more forms of printing... puzzles, lifestyle, stationery, beach, coffee mugs, apparel. Use the CODE at Pixels for an artist discount.
David has always been good at sketching exactly what he sees and as faithfully as possible, that is, if he can see it first, this has become his ADVENTURE, once he helps that subject become reality, he finds something else he has not created before, something that he yearns to paint. For David, style and technique are secondary in importance to the subject, making them transparent, so the subject can form completely as it should without him interjecting his own personality. The joy of creating, the love of the Creator and appreciation of Creation itself is what drives this whole process, more than anything else. Starting with an idea, a concept, he starts sketching, imagining, studying, creating the subject and composition, then develops the idea into his painting. The adventure of creation is not about David, it is about letting the creation come into existence, and his sole goal as an artist is to experience the joy of creating something fun or enjoyable, and to be able to share those creation experiences with all others.

Beautiful homage to a great man. As I see it, the American Revolution is the most epochal event in socio-political history, so for me, this painting emotes a spiritual essense.

Wow, this is great. You created awesome light/shadows, and the crowning touch is the moisture blowing out of the horses' nostrils so you get a sense of how cold it is... Most excellent! L/F/P

Thanks so much, Lisa. I was inspired by an artist's painting of Washington in similar pose, done for the nation's bicentennial in 1976.
