Artist's Comments

"In Flanders Field,
The poppies grow
Beneath the crosses
Row on row
That mark our place.
And in the sky, the lark
Still bravely singing
Fly...though
scarce heard amid
the guns below.

We are the dead
Short days ago, we lived, felt dawn
Saw sunset glow.
Loved and were loved, and know we lie
In Flanders Field.

Take up our quarrel with the free
To you, from failing hands we throw
THE TORCH.
Be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith
with us who die, we shall not sleep.
In Flanders Field."
~Lt.Col. John Mcrae~

the back of the violin i painted. on the front is Salvador Dali's "Visage of War" [link]

if you have attempted alchemy by clapping your hands or drawing an array, then copy and paste this into your sign.

I asked the angels, I asked the faeries, I even consulted my tarot. We're together forever, I promise xxx

:iconfemella-obscura:
yeah the cello's pretty sweet... but a viola would be nicer since it's smaller and it has the same strings (CGDA)... cello can be a pain though because of its size... mine gets kind of frustrating because its practically as tall as me :p
:iconjohnyswashbuckls:
although in an orchestra, the violas get shafted quite a bit. >_<
that is until we play the theme from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. Violas, cellos, and string basses all the way! :w00t:
