Acrylic on Wood (32” X 23”) – I began this after the Columbine tragedy in 1999. Attempting to portray the grim reality of many of our youth nowadays. To illustrate the growing need for all of us recognize the ills that continues to permeate throughout our schools. To urge those in position to make a difference to become more aware of the dark and profoundly disturbed psychological makeup of a certain breed of students who continue to conclude there is no escape but through senseless violence. Government leaders, (national and local), school administrators and counselors, classmates and parents – need to increase their vigilance and devote more time and energy towards developing a deeper understanding of the unseen pressures, destructive influences, and sometimes traumatic circumstances which challenge much of our youth today.

The National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas in Staffordshire is a living tribute to the people of the last century and to reflect this over the past four years some 40,000 trees have been planted and monuments raised in memory of the armed forces, the Merchant Navy, the Police and Fire Service and the Civil Defence. Among the Veterans who have plots at the site are those linked to Dunkirk (the pictured helmet and rifle), Burma and Normandy Campaigns. The project also includes a Visitor Centre and the Millennium Chapel of Peace and Forgiveness which is the only one of its kind to be built to celebrate peace in the new millennium and reflect on previous conflict. The Chapel is the only place within the United Kingdom where the Act of Remembrance is observed on every day of the year. Visitors to the Chapel and surrounding areas are invited to stop in silence at 11am to remember those who have lost their lives in conflict.

My latest painting is from my wife, Leigh’s photo shoot with Michael “Bad Hand” Terry, Native American Indian. He is pictured here with his horse, “Apache”, photographed in July 2006. “Bad Hand” is his given Indian name. Michael is an accomplished Actor, Stuntman, Authenticity Expert and Technical Consultant for nearly 50 motion pictures including “Dances With Wolves” and “Last of the Mohicans.” He is currently the nation’s most well known authority on Plains Indian history. Michael’s journeys take him all across the USA where he teaches, lectures and informs the curious public on Plains Indian history, culture, and corrects may of the myths and untruths propagated and compounded by generations of television and inaccurate historical portrayal. Michael’s mission is to undo the misunderstandings about the Native Americans from history and show the kinder, gentler side of their survival as a culture. Michael was kind enough to pose for me in Pinedale, Wyoming in July while he was there giving lectures on the Plains Indians history during the annual Mountain Man Rendezvous. All the clothing, regalia, props, jewelry and such are hand-made by Michael to explain, educate and nullify myths and legends about the Plains Indians history through demonstration, story-telling and careful and accurate responses to questions posed by his audiences. Michael has posed and been painted for the last 30 plus years by the likes of Frank McCarthy, James Bama, Howard Terpning, some of the nation’s most well-known western artists. / In this image, Michael is dressed in authentic Comanche (time period 1870’s) buffalo skin coat, leggings, smock, and an otter hair hat. He is holding a US-made rifle designed especially for trade to the Indians. The stock of the U.S. government-issued rifle is covered with brass decorative tacks. There were mittens hanging around his neck (not shown here) that are also made of soft leather and were designed so that the trigger finger is gloved alone while the remaining fingers are together. The trigger guards on the specially made rifles were designed with a large opening to allow for this single gloved finger. It would be hard to feel the trigger or accurately judge the pressure on the trigger with an entire hand covered by a single mitten with only the thumb free. A lot of planning and effort went into making and trading items between the trades people and the Native Americans. My portrayal here in full winter dress and, indicative of the harsh winter months suffered b the Plains Indians. This piece, appropriately titled, “First Snow” is the first in a series of “Bad Hand”: I forwarded a .jpg of this image to Michael last evening. Much to my surprise, he responded right away and not only conveyed how much he was moved by this piece but also offered a trade of future modeling or other such services. This man has been photographed and painted by many artists over the years and he states he has never requested an original before mine! I am so humbled and honored at this request……..I am truly moved and speechless.

A Karo man with an AK-47 – Omo Valley, Southern Ethiopia. Guns are ubiquitous in the remote Omo Valley. The tribal men of the Omo consider weapons to be part of the traditional dress – much like jewelry. I am told that they only shoot eachother.

When caught in a hot spot, just look at your shirt and make a rifle! Handy!

Guns are ubiquitous in Ethiopia’s Omo Valley. AK-47’s are so common that they’re almost part of the traditional dress – like jewelry. These Karo men, high above the Omo River, are probably not as dangerous as they look. I’ve been told that they only shoot eachother.
