It dawns on me that many high school students today have not a clue as to what the phrase "the gates of Vienna means." Knowledge of history has become so pathetic.

Anyway, I'm going to post something soon about the significance of "the gates of Vienna."

After I finished drawing tha painting the castle and added my own background of the sea - I decided to "improve" it-so- semi-covered the original painting w/red- and then free drew the horse and rider-
Interesting-an Art Professor -friend asked me if I would like to use her projector -to enlarge my original sketch of the horse and rider-
I said-No thank - I'll just hand draw it on the canvas with a paint brush--
She was surprised that I could do that--I must be better than I thought!
