I'm a huge history fan/nutjob/crazyperson. Always have been. I'm constantly reading biographies, non-fiction books, Wikipedia, history websites and watching documentaries. It's a little crazy to say the least. My favorite person in history (by far) is Abraham Lincoln. While looking at pictures from Matthew Brady & Alexander Gardner I started this piece back in February (Mr. Lincoln's birthday month) I noticed how much he aged from 1857 to 1864. I think we know why. He had a stressful job. Anyway, I combined these pictures and here's what I came up with. I worked on it all year and finished it in time for the 153rd anniversary of The Gettysburg Address.
