Description
This is another painting for my upcoming show. This farm is just a mile or so down the road from my home. Its an old dairy farm that hasn't been used for that purpose in some time.The farm is kept in beautiful condition in large part to the effort of a little old black man named George Washington. George was born into a local family that worked some of the local farms. Born premature on Christmas eve, to a family with many mouths to feed and limited resources Georges future was uncertain, being handicapped both physically and mentally. The farmer took George in to raise him, and he remains on the farm still, some 65 years later. The farmer has since passed on, and his daughters have grown and no longer live on the old farm, only George remains alone in his white house.
