Description
A child fallen in Beslan, Russia. This child could be anyone, anywhere. The children hold stars of David, crosses, beads, bibles, the koran, or nothing at all, all across the world.
The true fallen.

I love the colors used in this. I sat and looked at it for quite some time and I am in awe of the strength and rawness of it. While it is moving and disturbing and heartwarming all in one, I have to also note that it is strength as well. I am amazed by your use of light/dark as usual but it seems you have developed into another level of ability, like you've taken it to the next level. I am watching the growth of you as an artist and am astonished at the way you are paving for yourself. I see it as one of greatness. Excellent beautiful unique and wonderful masterpiece. I am humbled by it, and by you.

This whole thing has broken my heart. More terrorists who give little care about life and the precious lives of children or anyone. They don't even care about their own souls. You illustrate our broken hearts very well.

The simple faith of a child. What no terrorist, no killer, no government can ever take away or remove. I cannot see this without realizing all of life is an act of faith. Shall my faith in the goodness of humanity be shaken? Or shall I chose hope? I hope and pray all people choose to find a way to never allow an act like this one again. That no person will ever choose to see killing as necessary. That people choose to achieve the potential that lies within them, and refuse the base acts of hatred that tempt them.

When art has meaning and comes from the soul it seems to transend the medium. Bullshit aside...what a damn powerful image. You hit the mark with this piece. The children are just colateral damage to so many of the "idealistic" terrorists of the world. Gotta stop...makes me too upset thinking about kids getting shot up for political reasons. Even on the other side of the world. "Makes me wanna holler, throw up both my hands." -Marvin Gaye Vote -jay

All life is precious, even if there are those who disregard it to the point of destruction as a means to something political. This is a powerful image, and made more so because of the outrage of the senselessness of it. There is no earthly reason to justify these horrible acts at all. Will they ever learn? Their views are vacant, and worthless. Your image definitely deserves a VOTE

i heard this somewhere: "No fate but the one we make ourselves" - the fate we're weaving right now for humanity, leads into darkness. not good, my friend. awesome image, vibrant with rage and pain. a true "fleur du mal".

The circle is ever turning and those who live with no respect for the purity and clarity of a child's Spirit will have returned to them 10 fold the havoc they have wreaked. Excellent! v

Just after pointing out, clarifying, that this pic isn't just lamenting terrorism. Its lamenting death of children, of innocence due to armies, politicians, governments and general hatred. Chechan children have fallen thanks to russians, and now it switched. Either way, its a tragedy.

The world is beautiful but because of us it has become an awful place.Greed is a terrible thing, a very powerful image.
