What Does It Meen to be an American?

Smithsonian Quest Badge Complete

I choose to complete the badge titled symbol spotter. This badge appealed to me because I love to look at things that are visually appealing and find meaning in them. I think it gives you a more personal connection with whatever you are looking at. To complete this badge I had to complete 3 different quests. In the first quest I was required to look at a painting of George Washington and describe the scenery and how it symbolized himself and his presidency. The next quest talked more about presidency when it asked me to redesign the Presidential Seal. I was required to use the entire essential element of the old seal and also to add two new symbols of my own. Lastly I was required to take an image of my own to display the symbolism of the flag for the United States. After up loading pictures of my design and picture I earned this badge from Smithsonian Quests.com.
