| BLAKE SPENT A WEEK IN SAN ANTONIA, TAKING PHOTOS AT DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE DAY. FROM HIS PHOTOS, HE PAINTED THIS ALAMO PICTURE. HIS COUSIN, JOHN FARRELL, HAD COMMISSIONED HIM TO PAINT HIM AN ALAMO PICTURE AND JOHN WANTED THE PICTURE TO INCLUDE MODERN TANKS AND OTHER WARFARE ATTACKING THE ALAMO. UPON COMPLETING THE PAINTING, JOHN REFUSED THE PAINTING BECAUSE IT DID NOT INCLUDE THE REQUESTED MODERN WARFARE. BLAKE COULD NOT BRING HIMSELF TO DISRESPECT THE ALAMO, SO HE LEFT OUT JOHN'S REQUEST. |
