Patriots and veterans have played a key role in our nation. These were the people who willingly risked and sacrificed their lives to secure our freedoms. That tradition has continued on, and today we honor the sacrifices of our armed forces veterans past and present. Without them we couldn't enjoy the freedoms we have today. Our nation's stability and comfort are protected through their efforts.
Like our veterans, I love this nation, and want to see it continue to flourish. That's why we’ve decided to now manufacture all of my Dowdle Puzzles in the United States. Soon each puzzle will carry the words "Made in the USA". This is exciting because it means that our customers are supporting our nation by providing stability and jobs.
Thanks to all veterans past and present, and to their families who continue to make their own sacrifices here at home.
P.S. If you’re a fan of Dowdle Folk Art, you may have already noticed the common theme of American flags. Old Glory shows up, sometimes several times, in most of my images. The image in the email is detail from my painting depicting Independence Day in St. Louis.
