Experiencing Joy Through Art

    Hello! A quick blog post today to wish all my fellow Americans a Happy 4th of July! Today is the day we celebrate our nation's independence and remember that it took strength and determination for our founding fathers to risk everything they had “in order to form a more perfect Union”. 

   Not only as an American but also as an artist, I will be sure to take some time today to remember that freedom is about expressing who you are and what you believe in, whether with a quill pen on a parchment document or a brush on a canvas.

   My plans today include a relaxing swim in the park pool, time spent with my family, grilled hotdogs with potato salad and watermelon, and watching the nearby fireworks show from the end of my street.

   So I wish you and your family a happy celebration filled with fun, fireworks, food and freedom!
