Daughters of the American Revolution – Third Place Award, National
A Third Place National DAR award was won for the 2021 American Heritage Competition, with the painting Finding My American Patriot, watercolor category. Much genealogical research went into finding this patriot. It included studying pre-revolutionary maps, his family, and old typestyles. Because only watercolor could be used, the type was painted with a quill pen filled with watercolor. The painting was exhibited virtually in the 130th Continental Congress.
