The Declaration of Independenceby Fabienne Christenson
acrylic and oil on canvas, 32 x 48 in.
I submitted this image for a show in Philadelphia called Too Funny for Words because I thought they might appreciate the wry humor in this piece as well as the obvious social implications. Much to my surprise, not only was I juried into the show, but I was awarded the second place prize for my work. To make matters better, the judge was non other than Tony Auth, the Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist of the Philadelphia Inquirer. I was over-the-moon when I found out the news. So may painting will be shown in ArtForms Gallery from the end of February to the end of March.
Next Open StudioFinal Friday February 27th.
