I might not be working at work but I sure have a lot of it at home that I need to catch up on and I will be thinking of you and your cartoons while I am out there mowing the grass and feeding the chickens and then the garden will be next. Wanna trade ( LOL ) JackJr.

Comment from Mama Mia1
What a beautiful patriotic scene this is. I love it!...bugle and all. The little drummer boy is fabulous and I love the way the flag is wrapped about the middle one's head. You are the best of the best. This is a wonderful work of art.

It is very patriotic for these flowers to represent the 4th of July. The fireworks in the background add a nice zing. Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July to you and all the flowers even as you have to work.
Looks as if the flowers work too. They seem a marching band giving the right sounds to the nicely colored fireworks in the background. [I hope someone will save a rib for you.]

Comment from kenjac55
I am running out words of praise, emotional descriptive adjectives of feelings.
I can hear the band, feel the electricity, and know the tune.
Enjoy the 4th; love your flag berry.

Comment from Stringbean
Oh my Happy 4th of July and this is a wonderful art celebrating the 4th! Your flowers are telling the story of our forefathers celebrating Independence day. I love the fireworks and the flag so eloquently detailed and your message is loud and clear... that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." No one can tell a story like you do Mark! Happy 4th and thanks for sharing!
