"My Land"
50 x 46 inches, Oil on textured canvas
Carl Heinz sits on a split-rail fence with a rifle across his lap with an 'over my dead body' look on his face as two riders approach. He and his wife, with a young son, migrated from Germany and headed west with the promise of land. This is his land and no man nor beast will ever pry him from it. They will get the usual dry German tone from Carl, "Fill your canteens if you please, and  without trespass, be about your business. Thank you and good day gentlemen".
