Wake Up America 10 X 15 OE - Litho Print

McNaughton's explanation of his painting "Wake Up America." Every man, woman and child in America is enslaved to our national debt. As an artist, I have laid out my vision of the dire circumstances that surround us. Now, more than ever, each American must make a choice: will we unlock the shackles that enslave us, or will we give up the greatest gift we have our freedom. It is my hope and prayer that America will "wake up" before it is too late. Those who are familiar with my work know I like to use symbolism and metaphor to engage the viewer. See if you can find and decipher the many symbols in this image. In the painting I have intentionally hidden six keys that will WAKE UP AMERICA and release us from the chains of economic and political bondage. Find these keys and share them with as many Americans as you can. If we don't "wake up", the next generation may not know what it means to be free. Jon McNaughton a political artist
