This is a detail of something that turns out to be a cartoon (see prev. pics)...These two faces, despite winding up as cartoons, these were attempts at a My Lai painting; they're trying for the expression of a woman moments before being shot to death with her family by US soldiers after being rounded up in a small group. in the famous My Lai massacre (Vietnam War) photos that appeared in LIFE magazine back then. I keep trying to get it over the years. But this woman was also angry. Also in the group in the photo is a picture of an openmouthed terrified little girl of four or so clinging to a skirt and a young woman holding a toddler. They wereare dead moments after the photo was taken.

I draw directly with ink. Usually no colors, but these yeah. No art training, and I don't know what I'm drawing.

I do not have any formal art training. I draw directly with ink, usually no color, but now trying some --- Inspired by Phosho smartblur, I changed from cheap colored pencils to cheap acrylics watered down.

"Die Pädagogen wie Phidias und Raffael haben uns nichts mehr zu sagen. Was lehren sie uns? Nichts. Nur eins hat Wert: die Originalität. Man muß sich durch die Tradition durcharbeiten, wie ein guter Schwimmer einen Strom durchschwimmt: die Akademiker ertrinken darin."

— Gustave Courbet
