NARRATIVE: This painting is about a farm boy who became an instrument in the hands of God to preserve and protect freedom and liberty. It's not just about Abraham Lincoln, but about mankind's unlimited potential for good. We are, all of us, not just capable of that kind of greatness, goodness and love–we're meant for it. I believe it's why we're here. Lincoln's life story is inspiring in many ways, but I believe the fundamental reason it resonates with us is that we all know, innately, to this end we were born as well–to do good.
