i'm an idealist?
or maybe just a fool.
i painted this for the annual
Amnesty greeting card campaign
only one was returned to me out
of about 10 and that one was from
Turkey. the rest of them got to where
they were going and hopefully served
a purpose. to let the recipients know we knew they
existed even though they were behind bars...

    thank you both.
    actually Moonman, i've been working on variations of the peacehand...what i really wanted to do was make it into a tee shirt but the cost is too much with all the colors...so i guess i'll stick with making cards.

    "Idealistic Fools" encompass what it means to be human. Lose that, and you lose the most essential part of being a sentient being.

    Fight the good fight, Franny.
