The Arrival
17.2 inches x 12 inches
Acrylic ink on Strathmore Watercolor Paper.As part of the Freedom Sail series, this painting also explores the issue of immigration. It is the ending of one journey and the beginning of a new one. A traveler who physically leaves his place of birth in search of a better life, but his patriotism, culture, and values stay with him wherever he goes. He leaves his country behind, but his country will never leave him.
