1776 Sentinel by Morgan Murphy honors America's Semiquincentennial through the powerful image of the bald eagle, a timeless symbol of the nation's strength and freedom. Created primarily with oil paints over a charcoal drawing and acrylic under painting, the piece reflects Morgan's appreciation for both wildlife and patriotic themes. As Morgan's first large-scale oil painting since art school, the work marks a meaningful return to the medium. Through careful brushwork and subtle shifts in color, 1776 Sentinel invites viewers to slow down, look closely, and appreciate the craftsmanship behind the painting while celebrating the enduring spirit of the United States.
