a little over two years ago you created this masterpiece and won 1st place and now two years later I am viewing it for the very first time because I am looking at each RECOGNIZED piece of art/photo and commenting on a few like I am doing with yours now. This photo requires no in depth Review. It totally speaks for itself. IT IS A POWERFUL PRESENTATION OF OUR SERVICE MEN AND OUR LORD OF WHOM WE SERVE. IT IS PERFECT IS EVERY ASPECT. I LOVE IT. I LIKE IT. I HONOR IT. I AM TOTALLY AWARE OF WHAT THIS PORTRAYS AND I THANK YOU FOR CREATING IT. YOU HAVE DONE AN AWESOME JOB. CONGRATS ON YOUR WIN....WELL DESERVED OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. NO ONE CAN COME CLOSE TO YOU WITH THIS SPECTACULAR ARTISTIC CREATION. THANK YOU FOR SHARING AND FOR BEING SO CREATIVE. I WISH I HAD AN EXTRA STAR BECAUSE YOU DESERVE 6...EVEN MORE THAN 6 really.

    You are more than welcome. Makes me smile that I was able to "make" your evening

    And especially for you and your husband....
    Semper fidelis,
    better known as Semper fi...
    "always faithful" or "always loyal".
    And we know it is best known as the motto of the United States Marine Corps.

    thank you deeply my friend. I really didn't and still dot see this as artistic since it has very little painting in it. It is mostly cut and paste from images that I looked up on the internet. wish I had the talent to actually paint each on of those soldiers but that is far from y ability.
    thank you again Bob

Wonderful digital composition. It is just chock full of meaning. The soldiers from every era standing on that suspended flag against the background of Christ's glory is a marvelous image. Technically, the work is excellent!

Comment from Jean A Cormier


Well, I think you've done an excellent job in presently a piece of art so appropriate and meaningful for Memorial Day. You have included all the wars which is very creative. Very tastefully done, perfect compositionally and I especially love that you are not timid and put the image of our Savior, Jesus in the middle! Jean.

    Sometimes we need to remind people what this country was founded on. Freedom of religion for Christians to say we are one in Christ.
    thank you Jean for a wonderful review . I deeply apologize for the late response in thanking you.

Actually, I think it may be some of your best work. That is why I rated you so high. I know the time and effort it took to make this and I also love the fact you put God as the central figure. He is with us in every battle we fight.
Thanks for posting.

This is extraordinary, Dianne! Alone the idea of the veterans through the times is worse ten stars. The piece is also of technical affection, showing that you acquired extraordinary skills. There is absolute everything right in this piece. A master work. One of your very best.
