Artist's Comments
06/14/2002 - Original Comments:
Tomorrow will be my grand parent's 57th wedding anniversary.
This is a picture of my grandmother's hand w/ that very same wedding ring from 57 years ago.
"I remember when this ring used to fit me better" she remarked while I was setting up for the shot.
"Seeing you, Ben.. The man that you are today, makes it all worth it. The good times and bad".
I'm sitting here with a tear in my eye
I love you both.

Both my grandparents have since passed away. My grandfather passed on Thanksgiving 2003, and my grandmother died a little bit more than a year later.
I still find it comforting to come here and see the comments that get left for this picture on an almost daily basis. It's touched a lot of people in a lot of ways.
I thank you all who enjoy this picture, and for those who are kind enough to leave a message and add it to your favs. You guys and gals make it just a little bit easier for me to think about them, and this picture.

No combination of words come to mind that could properly describe this piece. I simply advise you to read what the artist had to say.

 reports, 1d 1h agoDaVinci, Picasso, Monet... these are all names I'm sure you've heard of before. They are the Masters of the art world and their talents are world renowned. But have you ever looked at their pieces and thought to yourself "I could do better" or "that would look awesome in a comic style"? Well here's your chance. How would you have painted DaVinci's Mona Lisa? Show me using only Vectors. |
