Illustration Friday - Angels and Devils

The theme for Illustration Friday this week is Angels and Devils. So, here's this weeks illustration (I don't think I've posted this before):

This is my 'cross' painting. I always wanted to do my interpretation of what happened the night Jesus died but I really wanted it to be very different to anything traditional. I know it's a bit gruesome but so was what happened on the cross. Why does this fit the theme? Because at no other time in history were angels and devils stirred so much!

Schapelle Links

As some may know I'm a supporter of Schapelle Corby. She's been in that prison now for about a year and a half and her lawyers are still trying to find a way to get her out of that awful situation.

There's a timeline of events here as well as other information and a yahoo group here.

There are quite a few great people out there who are supporters of hers. There's the Spirit of Schapelle forums, an amazing forum full of people from around the world. There's afew active blogs too such as two in Canada called Hacia la Justicia, and Love To Schapelle and a couple of Aussie blogs called True Blue and Bring Her Home.

Roz in Adelaide has put together a scrapbook of photos sent to her for Schapelle, each page dedicated to a different contributing supporter which will be sent to Schapelle so she can see who's out there.

Schapelle's family keeps us informed with the official site called Free Schapelle and Schapelle.info is updated when there's news.

You can still write to her or send a little parcel at:

Photo Friday - Masterpiece

The PF theme this week is Masterpiece and as an artist, the first thing that comes to mind is....art! Of course, I don't see ANY of my artwork as worthy of the title of Masterpiece but thought this photo was relevant to the theme:

This is me at uni in my second year. That painting is in the bin now but I was very much still learning a lot (and still am!).
