"I am a Patriot" Original Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

This is the first painting from many photos that I took while in Washington DC this summer. The flag was located between the Lincoln and Vietnam Veterans Memorials and has the smaller POW flag below. I've always wanted to do a painting of our flag, and this felt like the perfect one to try. Doesn't it look strong and proud?

It was so great finally seeing all of the important structures and memorials in DC after having taught about them for so many years. Looking forward to taking our boys when they get a bit older. Of course one of my favorite parts was the afternoon I spent at The National Gallery of Art browsing around and absorbing as much history as I could there as well.

Memorial Day by Roxanne Steed

10"x8" oil on Belgian linen mounted on archival board

"Each moment is the fruit of forty thousand years."
- Thomas Wolfe

In honor and memory of our fellow military members; for those who did not return, for those far away from home today, and for those still at home with loved ones serving far away....our thoughts are with you today and always.

My hubby has been wanting to put up a flag on our house, as well as bunting for the 'flag day holidays'. So that's where we were yesterday, up in Rhode Island, seeking out a flag store! Of course, on the way home, we stopped by "Farmer's Daughter" nursery to bring home a few things. But that of course is another story for another day. The grill has been dragged out, cleaned up, cranked up, tried out, & is ready for today, too!
