Just ahead of the United Kingdom’s Nov. 11 Remembrance Day, people view “For Your Tomorrow,” an art installation of 1,475 silhouettes that represent those under British command who were killed in the 1944 D-Day landings during World War II. The memorial, seen here Nov. 7 at Stowe Gardens in Stowe, England, was created by community artist Dan Barton


Thanks Rad Nana!

More steps ...


Started with an ink brush drawing, 
then watercolor & gesso.


I combined it with an earlier acrylic collage ...



playing with layers and opacities in Photoshop ...

 


A little rough? Again, feedback requested if you have time.
I so appreciate your comments.





Look what I found for you ...



On the pages of an old newspaper, a woman once read about the world, about dreams that had once woven themselves into reality, as if destiny could be read between those black-inked lines. Now, standing between the borders of reality and fantasy, she finds herself once again. Back then, life might have felt black and white, printed rigidly like ink on paper. But in an era that transcends the boundaries of reality, she stands in a surreal world, where dreams and reality merge, where freedom becomes the essence of every step she takes. She has learned that the world is no longer just what meets the eye. There is power in unspoken dreams, in hopes that dare to venture beyond limits. For this woman, a new page of life is not merely a blank sheet but a canvas upon which she paints her own world—with colors from the heart, with wonders only she understands.
