Done for a painting class, and still being worked on. I'm struggling with what I want to do with the background so I welcome ANY ideas that you all may have.

(sigh), I wish I had your talent; very nicely done!

For a background I was thinking about a plantation house in the far background with a live oak with moss hanging from the limbs in the immediate background. The idea being the plantation is where he came from, and enrolling in the army gave him his freedom.

that's not bad.....not bad at all...I was leaning towards putting in a few cannon and caissons but like your idea better.
