Adding Familiar Personal Touches
In any other year, the couple who lived here would likely have planted colorful floral arrangements in large flower pots. Had they not been busy packing, they might also have been proudly flying the national flag next to their front entrance. In designing the painting composition, these personal touches were added back in, to more fully represent the house they called home.
