MMXI - 067 - Civil Unity



A few weeks ago Charleston, SC had a Call for Entries for their celebration of the Civil War's Sesquicentennial Anniversary. The Call for Entries was open to any SC artists to traditionally make a Poster Design. I completed my design in the nick of time but heard no word of the results. Oh well, here's for all to see. Took 2weeks to make.

I didn't want to be one-sided since I'm from the South and the celebration is too. I wanted to illustrate both sides of the war. And all the faces in the piece are drawn from actual photos of Civil War soldiers, both Confederate and Federal.
