Wale, This triple portrait still remains a favorite for me. Thanks for your comments, I would be most pleased to share a cup of tea with you,I am sure that our discussions would be both pleasant and enligthening. Having just sold a print of one of my favorite bakeries is a wonderful thing here on faa, helping to make the world a friendlier place, where we artists are respected for our sincere efforts. Wishing you many sales as well as best wishes, your friend Carole

Wale, I have and always will applaud non violent freedomfighters, the kind of men who you have depicted so well , those who fight for justice for ALL and would never remove or diminish the rights of another. I certainly did not say they or their cause was selfish, if the politicians where I live used your 3 heros as their role model, they would not want to separate from my beautiful country of Canada. Wale, we artists on FAA come from all over the world, we will never meet in person, but we are in a sense ambassadors of good will for our nations. I am familiar with the overall history of your wonderful land, but not the day to day situation. What I added to my remarks was that while you most certainly could run the contest of your choice, that you must be more careful in your description to write EXACTLY what you had wanted . You assumed we would know your intent, you never actually WROTE IN THE RULES to include more than 1 figure in the entry. Moreover,not eveyone is fortunate enough to have a family such a yours. I wish you good success in life and art. Perhaps the real reason this all happened was so that we 2 strangers could meet to share a good exchange. Blessings to your family.

Dear Carole, Thanks for your understanding comment about the freedom hero, but one thing is missing, they are not selfish and they stood for the interests of the masses at large. All single portraits were removed in the fair interest of the contest as well as the contestants, I strongly believe that a single portrait can never be a Family Portrait; a tree does not make a forest. Martin Luther King portrait was left there by a mistake due to urgent reasons that keeps me away from the contest, I do take responsibility for this mistake and I would like to let you know that I have started a new portrait contest that gives room for any portrait and you are more than welcome to participate. Moreover your portrait was not the only one removed. I also believe that these hero's are not quitters, be nice to post new image in the portrait context remember that quitters don’t win...... Thanks.

You have chosen 3 undeniable heros, each one standing for integrity, character, dignity, honesty, fairness, each possessing a true sense of personal responsibility, I am sure that you would like to see yourself reflected in and by these marvelous mentors. Still wanting to know why you unfairly deleted paricular artists from your competition. I doubt your 3 Freedom Heros would have behaved as you did. Your work is very good, your actions in that particular case were not.

great skill. looking forward to more !!!

I like the 3 heros in one piece. I am a South African from Durban living in Ohio. Join my SA group I formed in this forum.
