Happy 4th of July!
Frederic Auguste Bartholdi included symbolism in his famous sculpture of Lady Liberty.
- Modeled after the Greek Goddess Libertas - the goddess of Freedom.
- Broken chains and tablet - symbolize the concept of law and the tablet is inscribed with the date of the Declaration of Independence.
- Torch and Crown. The torch is a symbol of progress while the crown represents the sun and seven rays are the seven seas and the seven continents.
Liberty Enlightening the World is the statues actual name.
Have a safe and happy 4th pf July.

It was J day at Art & Coffee Talk! Janet, Judy, John, Jean, and Jennifer! Thank you to Shereen for the talk on building your own website. For a fee Shereen who has done this for a living will help you build your website. Artists will benefit from this small investment.
Hope to see more art friends next month.

I received a constructive critique on a graphite drawing that will help in fixing a value error.
Judy shared a piece in progress as well.
