Great picture Helena, I can almost hear the little chirping noises he would make watching the birds.

Thanks calacores

Hi Hel, I love the work you are doing, you are really improving with your drawings. War sucks, and this one is a big f.. waste of lives.

Calacores, your knowledge of great music heartens me! Do you know of Phil Ochs works? Looking forward to hearing you on the phone again.

As far as the question posed by the title of the art. War is only good for the power elite that profit from it. Those that fight and die are never the ones that gain. "Good for the economy" is a fallacy. The only sector of the economy that get a bump is the arms manufacturers, and other providers of military equipment. Much more good would be provided to the economy if the same amount of money was put into education, or rebuilding OUR country's infrastructure. And if the resources were put into renewable energy, we would no longer have to colonize the Middle East. If you want to see the real face of the current war, go watch Fahrenheit 911.

I think this was based on a song: "WAR! Hoo! *music going* What is it good for? Absolutely NOTHING." I like that song.

I liked it, it has a nice pic of the sky, maybe thats what I'll do next, a night sky... by hand.

thug (May 20, 2004)

fantastic! the big fish is spooky. I'm a scuba diver but get freaked at night in the ocean. There's a dive on the big island of Hawaii at night where you can sit on the ocean floor and hold a flash light and 30 foot manta rays feed off the plankton from the light beam. I've got the approach-avoidance conflict going over that one.

davincipoppalag (May 21, 2004)

Oh boy..someone's gonna get eaten.... I hear ya thug..I don't even like going into the ocean in daytime (too many surprises), I can't imagine at night! PS did you see the news today about that huggge great white that was circling a fishing boat 13 miles off Kill Devil Hills yesterday?? Huggggee

MD_Anonymous (May 21, 2004)

hehehe, I agree about the night sky. I think the water could use some detail, though.

Tuukke (May 15, 2004)

really nice, great colours! good subject, i'll watch your other pics :)

LovelyLori (May 15, 2004)

yup, nice silhouette, you do good work

emmamommalag (May 15, 2004)

Yep, Pantera.. you are really getting good. I'm pretty sure 300x300 is the limit, calacores.

Pantera (May 16, 2004)

Thank you all very much, I tried making the girl with smooth lines but it did not work, I wish I knew how some of you do it to where it looks so nice.
Tim, I know some people are able to have a bigger canvas in Lascaux, but I can not, I guess they ask for more space or something, the last time I asked for more space I got it but lost points for asking, so I think I will stick with 300x300 or less :)

Tako up the tree

Pantera (May 12, 2004)

Thank you very much :)

Bad Habit

Pantera (May 11, 2004)

If you do not smoke, don't even try it, you will regret it! I know I do. 30.00 dollares a carton (military price) more if you buy outside of the base. One carton= 10 packs, I smoke almost 2 pks/day, you do the math.

My wife is on the other side of the planet right now, but this makes me feel like she is right around the corner. I wish I could hug her right now, and tell her how proud I am of her and what she has accomplished. Who knows, maybe in a few months we will be together again and I can tell her in person. And then I would tell her that we might get to stay at our current home for another year... And might not have to move until May 05. It is out of my hands though, at echelons far beyond my oxygen level. But I digress, this is a lovely painting! Keep up the great work!

Pantera (edited May 13, 2004)

I am so happy that you were able to visit my gallery again :) Yes it would be nice to stay here another year, can not wait to see you :)
I almost forgot...Thank you all for your comments, it means a lot to me.

davincipoppalag (May 14, 2004)

Is calacores your husband pantera??? That's so cool he can keep in touch this way!

Pantera (May 16, 2004)

Yes it is my husband, whenever he gets near a pc, he looks in here :)
