Born in Alabama, Howard Finster settled in Georgia where he became a Baptist preacher, bicycle repairman, inventor, and devoted family man. In 1976, Finster had a vision in which God commanded him to begin preaching through paint. George Washington was the subject of Finster’s first painting, and he portrayed his hero in a vast array of poses, scenes, and painted sermons. Here Finster’s painted text extolls that “George Washington looked into another World and so will you” and “there’s an eye watching you.”
