Peace 2 All by Julie Everhart
I was just thinking about when the day is going to come when people can just learn to get along and live peacefully amongst each other… Don’t think it will ever happen but some of us can remain hopeful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-NRriHlLUk

Across the Universe by Alice McMahon White
“Across the Universe” Copyright 2007 Alice McMahon White, with design assistance from Teagan White, soft pastel on Kitty Wallis sanded paper, 84×36” This is the final work for my “White Album” series. I’m feeling sad already… “Across the Universe” was in the works long before I ever heard about the recent movie release. It was inspired by my trip with Teagan to DC in March 17, 2007, last St. Patrick’s Day. So, back in March, we were armed with cameras instead of protest signs, and were just trying to stay awake after all night on the bus, and also trying to stay warm in the high icy winds. But the two of us have been planning this work inspired by our experience since then. Truly a cooperative work, my girl gladly designed the protest sign, and planned her outfit, picking up activism buttons and the MAKE LOVE NOT WAR t-shirt, even painting her own jeans. And just two weeks ago, she was a stoic and excellent model for my reference photos. The daisy in her hand is a nod to a shy young woman we met in DC. She never said a word, but passed out single yellow daisies to marchers all day. The rainbow is a symbol for St. Pat’s Day, spring, peace stretching across the planet, light coming after the rain, and also for gay rights, as shown on one of the buttons on her jacket. The rainbow is reflected in the puddles at her feet, “pools of sorrow/waves of joy”. No blood for oil… My intention was to handwrite actual words from many different Beatles song lyrics in the rainbow, subtle, so you could barely see them, and yes, the puddles need work, but I simply ran out of time. Show needed to get hung. DO see the movie “Across…” my favorite in a long time, and it’s not just because I like the Beatles! Wishing for WORLD PEACE in 2008! Happy New Year dear friends! Thanks for your support this past year. I’m humbled by your great kindness to me. Hugs and much love! ~ Alice

Like a Rolling Stone by Odwin
I was reading this magazine featuring wonderful 2d artists and I was so inspired by there beautiful freehanded work. So I went on searching on the internet for a portrait photo with lots of character and found this photo of Rolling Stones gitarist Keith Richards. So I set up his portrait with pencil and started blocking in the shadows and highlights in gray tones and usually I don’t get much futher than that because it always looks like crap but somehow I got the motivation to move on and started to add color and texture and the painting just exploded. It is turning out so well I cannot believe I did it myself. My drawing skills from way way back seem to come back to me YEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHH ;-) Odwin

About This Group
Bring on that rebellion and noncompliant urge to over throw the status quo and create resistance to the mainstream predictability of ordinary mundane non-thinking. To break the anaesthetic of lethargic forces and step out into the risk and invigorating effort of attempting to work life anew as art+music. To intimidate the invincibility of ignorance to hopefully precipitate new life and life giving energy.
Also to capture that essence of Free Spiritedness and to Celebrate the 60’s ignition of this way of living and thinking as a lifestyle. it was also a time of great change . The Vietnam war , peace marches , free love and not to forget the racial changes that were coming to a head in America . Thanks to Dr. Martin Luther King and many others.
