A
Prayer for My Brother by William S. Phillips
To benefit the National Fallen Firefighters
Foundation:
After looking at this powerful work, it may not surprise you to
learn that Phillips is a former firefighter. (Bill left the profession
after 16 years when he began to earn a living through his art.)
Bill has painted this iconic and heroic work of art to support firefighters
nationwide. He hopes that the outpouring of support for New York
fire fighters continues to raise awareness and appreciation for
the everyday, unsung heroes in communities everywhere. The Greenwich
Workshop is donating a portion of proceeds to the National Fallen
Firefighters Foundation to benefit families of lost firefighters
nationwide.
Phillips went to visit the National
Fire Academy located in Emmitsburg, MD (just south of Gettysburg)
during one of his appearences at Lord Nelson's Gallery. One of his
signed canvas prints was donated to the Academy, where it now hangs.
