Happy Independence Day, art lovers!
If you live in the United States, you likely have an American flag proudly flying on the front of your home. So you can imagine that as a home portrait illustrator, I've painted my share of flags over the years. This particular American flag watercolor painting will always be special to me because of who commissioned it...
...The White House!
That's right, this American flag is featured on the front and back covers of the book I illustrated for The White House. It's actually one of several flags I painted for the project. And another fun fact: all of my original book illustrations, including this one, are now and forever housed in the National Archives. Pretty neat, huh?
