"Captain Kennedy"

I am a young mariner headed to war
I'm thinkin' 'bout my family
and what it was for
There's water on the wood
and the sails feel good
And when I get to shore
I hope that I can kill good.

My father was a sailor
named Captain Kennedy
He lost his wooden schooner
to the Germans on the sea
Exploded on the water
for everyone to see
And humiliate that American
Captain Kennedy.

I saw him in Nassau in 1971
His strength was failin'
but he still ran a run
He worked 'til his fingers
wore to the bone
To buy that wooden schooner
and sail on his own.

He was known in the islands
as hundred foot iron
That steel hull freighter
was passin' its time
And time flew by faster
with life on the sea
And the days grew shorter
for Captain Kennedy.

I am a young mariner headed to war
I'm thinkin' 'bout my family
and what it was for
There's water on the wood
and the sails feel good
And when I get to shore
I hope that I can kill good.

Broken

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Aug 30, 2006)

Wake up to a sunny day, not a cloud up in the sky
Then it starts to rain, my defenses hit the ground
And they shatter all around, so open and exposed
I found strength in the struggle
Face to face with my trouble

simply elegant and emotional

my favorite of your's. no doubt.

Something I thought I commented on. One of my favorites of yours, the texture adds so much to the piece, making it seem more like canvas. If someone were to see this they would think it was a Degas, that was my first thought as well. Just beautiful Miss Cindy.

I like this so very much! Her face... so pretty!

I love this, I'd think I'd just opened a page of a childrens book. It's charming Hope.

Rough Guide...feel free to erase anything, I'm sure its not quite in proportion
Draw on one layer, put black square over your work on seperate layer.
Make a note in your revision which layers you edited.
Please add layers for next person to use.
when mentioning which layers you used, it would be helpful if you state the # and its position, ex: "i used layer 1. on the bottom" or "I used layer 1. on the top".
reason being what one person considers the first layer is relative.
Order of drawing will be the same in which offer was accepted, 1. Dan, 2. Clox, 3. Staci, 4. myself.
Pick whichever block is still available.
Please refrain from peeking at previous work, I think it would add more to the experiment.
Feel free to draw in whatever style/colours you choose as long as ref is recognizable

With a skull that thick, why bother with a hard hat?
He's shaven, he walks erect, he speaks....doesn't change much.

These characters look like they walked out of a 70's cartoon. That's good btw.

Guesse you'll have to do a female now.

Some sort of squirrel/rabbit. Dave suggested I draw animals. I wanted this to turn out more stylish, I will try harder on the next animal I draw.

When I look at this it comes to mind something from Donny Darko. I dunno if that's a good thing X)

It's fantastic, I didn't even recognize this as yours. By all means you should do somemore fuzzies.
