Linda Arnold a Colorado artist was asked to paint a picture for the people in New York City & Washington DC in memory of victims who were killed on September 11, 2001.

The New York State flower is a rose, each rose, represents the 7 continents whom all lost someone that day. The American flag represents the Pentagon & the lives lost on the planes, the two trees represent the twin towers, comma the raindrops represent teardrops. The original is hanging in New York City training Academy for firefighters in Brooklyn.
