Act Like A Patriot

Available Original Art


MEDIUM/GROUND: acrylic paints & gel medium, paper cut-outs, gesso, conte` crayon, water color pencils on stretched canvas

DESCRIPTION:  This Modern Art collage painting from Tree Pruitt is a response to the American Patriot Act & on-going oil, gas prices & Middle East issues. You might say it's a bit anti-Bush, but it speaks of many political issues in one space. For example, the topic of border patrol is alluded to by the inclusion of the phrase, "Minute Man", among others. The two faces of government are shown, the President and the Vice President -- one side offers a penny (or takes it) & the other holds out a cookie, (chocolate chip, of course), -- lady America grows from his ribs like Eve in the primordial garden. She ignores the events by chatting on a cell phone. It is our personal freedom dead as a skeleton in the grave.
