Emile Klein and the YOU'RE U.S. project about to get under way....

We are very proud to be one of the many sponsors of the YOU'RE U.S. project.  For the next five years portrait artist, Emile Klein, will be traveling the American countryside on his bicycle telling the stories of 150 everyday Americans through portraiture.  There will also be oral historians to tell their stories, as well as written accompaniment.  Emile will be using Blue Ridge Oil Colors for his journey, and we are more than happy to be a part of such a project.  To find the true America, and promote the American craftsman will make for an extremely interesting journey.  Once the trip has begun we can all keep up with his progress, see the portraits and the stories at youreus.com/.
