Relics of a Hero





I just finished this commissioned piece today. "Relics of a Hero" is to be an anniversary gift for a firefighter. Today as I painted this piece, I was humbled to hear radio reports of our president walking the grounds where the World Trade Center Fell on September 11th. While "Relics of a Hero" will be a celebration gift for a committed couple, this painted vessel will draw my mind to another anniversary. I appreciate the presidential request that we celebrate or morn with "unity and renewal". Upon any event in our lives, whether they be blissful or tragic, let us embrace and grow from our experiences.
