Thanks guys!

Janel I certainly understand your sentiments!

David I have painted over the text once already, I am so bad at this, but I have to get something in there.

Beth, these turned out beautifully--I like the contrast that you added, it gives them so much more volume. Well done.

Thank you Beth. These are wonderful little paintings you've done and I'm sure the exhibit would be a very moving thing to see. I hope it travels so I'll be able to go see it.

Thank you for doing these paintings and for giving the information on the organization.

Julie

Congratulations Beth,

You have done a wonderful job here.

I must admit that I thought that it seemed almost impossible to paint from these references.

Well, mission impossible, you did it!

Allan

Hi Beth,

Yes, you have taken an impossible situation and created something that makes a powerful staement. I'm glad you took it upon yourself to participate, I don't think you will be sorry. Good luck on the lettering, would stencils help? I have lettering guides left over from my drafting days, you can find them in architectural supply stores.

Jean

Thanks guys, Allen I wish now I had been much looser!

If you get time, go to the link and watch the slide show, it is amazing what some of the artist have done, between the soldiers and the other artist, I am so humbled.
