What's New...in America?

What's New...in America? watercolor on Yupo, 20x26" (50x65cm.) Winner: 1st Place Award, at San Clemente Art Gallery, 2008.

This painting is fitting for today's blog. Here I honored the poor immigrants coming to America hoping for a better future. As of today, the entire country has health care. As Jean Dubuffet said: "Art is a language, instrument of knowledge, instrument of communication." And also quoting Maya Angelou: "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Happy March 21st, 2010, Americans!
