American Pillar (Pillar Chicken)

Today, while visiting the Butler Institute of American Art, I saw the painting American Pillar (Pillar Rose) by Roger Brown. It was beautiful and inspired me to make a poor imitation. It lacks the same effort and care the original had and the background wasn't done very well at all. Also now that I look at it online I see that the tree was green. It had looked very black in person. While my imitation may not carry the same quality as his it still pulls the American spirit.

NOTE: You can't Google the painting but you can find it in the Butler's website
