| In celebration of the bicentennial of the signing of the U.S. Constitution at Independance Hall, Robert was presented with the challenge of creating a portrait not only of one of this country's forefathers but also dating 50 years before the advent of photography. The challenge of accuratly portraying his likeness required extensive research; digging up tailor's notes in the archives to determine his body size, gathering drawings, sculpture etc. to determine his facial structure and acquiring clothing appropriate to the period. Once completed the painting was unveiled at the bicentennial celebration in Orlando, FL were it was on display at the Walt Disney Resort. The painting then travelled across the country throughout the bicentennial celebration. A poster was made for use in local celebrations across the U.S. bringing our country's heritage to life for American's everywhere. | |||
