MY REACTION:  What fun!

CONTENT:  I can't say that I ever really understood patriotism until now.  I am so attached to where I now live, how I now live.  And there is something uniquely vibrant and precious about small town America.  In the city, I was always vaguely aware that I was sharing an urban area with 2 million other folks, many of whom can from other countries.  And I knew to a greater or lesser degree my city was like any other major city around the world.  But here....  well, I don't know.  It feels special.  I decorated my home for the 4th of July and I am excited to go see fireworks over the river tonight.  I am grateful to be an American.

And I have NEVER appreciated freedom like I do now.  Woo hoo!

ARTISTIC CONCERNS:  This is a traditional brush painting.  It is on my all-time favorite surface.  These lightly textured masonite panels are divine to paint on.  They take color beautifully.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:  This piece could be easily and affordably framed as it requires no matting or glass.  Or it would also display nicely just as it is, no framing needed, on a small easel or display stand.
