FLAGS OF FREEDOM
It was not my idea to do this piece of art, but it
really became a journey for me when I became committed
to doing an interactive work about what I think the
Flags of Freedom represent. In the art are the names of
737 deceased men and women, and two living men, who
served our country and our flag. I walked through 20
cemeteries in Bureau County and part of Putnam County to
copy the names in this art. The two living veterans are
very representative of those who served in battle. One
is from Bureau County and the other from Putnam County.

THE
JAMES BUTLER "WILD BILL" HICKOK COLLECTION
The Wild Bill Hickok Project was one of the most
interesting art, framing, research, cataloging, and
writing endeavors of my career. I made two discoveries
for my client that added to the provenance of two of the
artifacts and actually authenticated one of them. It was
by chance on one & patient research on the other. Shown
are only a few of the many items that were connected to
Hickok during his illustrious life that I was fortunate
to have catalogued and put into a museum collection. The
Colt Revolver was the weapon that Hickok was wearing
when he was assassinated by Jack McCall in Deadwood,
August 2, 1876. McCall was hung in March 1877 in Yankton
SD. |

THE
HANGING OF JACK McCALL - THE ASSASSINATION OF WILD BILL
HICKOK

Hickok Project

mounting in shadow box frames of the James Butler "Wild

Arms and Manuscripts. Restoring the only known photos of
this, at the time, epic and historic event which drew
thousands of spectators, was part of the project. The
photos match the actual newspaper accounts of the event.
During the restoration of a photo, by chance discovery
as to the authentication of the photos was made. Print
