"Galena 22312"
Grant Park, Galena, Illinois

"Galena" My hometown, Galena, Illinois is famous for a number of reasons. One, is the Civil War history associated with it. This includes the town's most famous citizen, General and President U.S. Grant. Here is a statue of him overlooking the Bandstand in beautiful Grant Park.

Galena still draws me like a magnet. I grew up there and still do many paintings of the town and area. Its Civil War history, architecture and beauty make it a unique tourist attraction. I'm hoping that this summer I will again have gallery representation in that wonderful little town.
