Indie's Hidden Love Note

Ever since the Redbook Magazine article mentioned it, a lot of visitors now ask us, "Where's the hidden love note?" It's sort of become a fun game for you all...well, here you go!

"I mentioned in an earlier post that "I subtly painted a note to my wife and unborn child on the front (west) side of The Freedom Rock. Well I thought I'd share where my note is to our unborn daugther who will be named Independence (or Indie for short). I highlighted it and circled it in red in this picture...it's not that easy to see if you visit The Freedom Rock. I'll share my wife's note a little later. Hope you enjoy."

Children's Rock Artwork

We had a teacher ask if Bubba would take a look at some fellow artist's own little "Freedom Rocks". We snapped a photo with Bubba standing beside their artwork in the studio and sent it to the class. The teacher said they really got a kick out of knowing "the artist of The Freedom Rock" looked at their drawings. Too cute-thank you all for your support and we're glad you're so interested in sharing our love for supporting our nation's heroes!

Korean War Veteran visits Sorensen Studios..

Dennis E. Dorman, a Korena War Veteran, visited the the studio a few days ago and presented me with a ornate South Korean Flag.  It's inspired me to look more into what is known as "The Forgotten War", specifically The Battle of Chosin Reservoir, also known as the Chosin Reservoir Campaign, which Dennis fought in.  Who knows...this may lead to some artwork in honor of those we lost in that hard fought war.  Thanks again Dennis
