This painting depicts my wife and young son as we were walking to the top of a hill overlooking Beilstein in Germany while visiting my wife's parents. It was a rainy, overcast day, but I remember it being a very fun and happy memory. This is why I chose to make the sky sunny and cheerful. Written throughout the pattern in the sky is a message to the youth to walk the path before them without fear, and to be joyful in life. Text within painting: Seh un Dechder vunn Pennsilfaani: 
Harrich mol wos ich fer saage hab aa.
In re Welt voll mit Schaefli, sei en Haert. 
Guck mol wie schee dei Land iss. Hab den Sunneuffgang des Deitschlands im Aag, un sie warre immer ermaahnt sei ferwas Heemet nimmi eenicharriyets sunnscht sei keent.
Die Zeit verschallt sich schneller ass mir des marricke kenne. 
Hab doch keeni Bang. 'S Lewe iss en Kreis. Mir waare immer do wu mir sinn, un warre do immer sei. 

Es liegt vor euch en scheenes Wegli. Laaf mol weiter unne Sarriye, weil unsri Zeit do iss arrig katz. Es gebt nix wu dich schaediche kann.
Sei eherbaar, sei reschpekdaawel, sei trei, mach dei Volk schtohls.

I am a self-taught oil painter who has developed over a decade or so a style which incorporates the Pennsylvania German language, traditional motifs such as Hex Signs and Fraktur, and mosaic or stained glass-like elements which together create what I call "Heemetkunscht", or Art of my Home. Each painting has a message to the viewer written out in the PA German dialect, which is most often arranged in a way that the words blend into the composition and may not even be noticed by the viewer. I want to create decorative, colorful and peaceful paintings which carry a deep meaning on a personal level for some, and for others they can be viewed, as the PA Germans would say, 'Chust for Nice.
