"The Flag"


Acrylic (48 X 32)"

Artists Comment:
Sometimes I wonder what our flag has come to represent. I wonder why the young and innocent are the ones called upon to defend it.  The stylized flag has stripes of fake money. Each star contains an inscription. They include "greed, hate, intolerance,etc". In the upper right hand corner is a poem written by a 10 year old boy.  I am sorry the resolution is not good enough to read it.
