9/11 Painting: This image is a tribute to our heroes, entitled "In Remembrance" depicting the horror, honor and hope that surrounds the tragic, historic, 9/11/01 attack on our freedom! The strong sense of hope and peace, exemplifying the integrity, honor and courage of America's heroes will never be forgotten.

On a clear, blue sky day, we were attacked on our soil, and within a short time, the Twin Towers were leveled leaving NYC looking dark and dismal. There were thick clouds of smoke everywhere, leaving dust and ashes in its wake. This painting shows the confusion and shock that were devouring the greatest city in the greatest country of the world. Our fighter jets entered the horrific scene along with the US Coast Guard, FDNY fireboats, and Apache helicopter. So many first responders were desperately trying to help in some way.

Amid the darkness, we can see the Statue of Liberty, symbolizing as Americans, how we must continue to stand proud, and be an example of strength for all people of the world, where freedom must ring loud and clear. We stand united in diversity being blessed by God, as a ray of Heavenly light suggests.
