Wartime Letters from My Father
Unfortunate Son is the latest series of paintings by
Oklahoma artist Eric Humphries. The six canvas series
centers around the Vietnam conflict and takes it's inspiration
from a group of letters written home by the artist's father,
who served in the war in 1969. The exhibit combines six four
foot by four foot canvases along with personal mementos
and photographs to tell the story of one of the most divisive
times in American history.
