The National War Memorial is the focal point of Confederation Square in Canada's capital city, Ottawa, Ontario. This locates it between Parliament Hill to the west and the Château Laurier hotel to the east.
The title of this photo is a quote by one of the taglines of the Imperial War Museum North, Manchester.
This building was designed by Daniel Libeskind, one of my favourite architects.
The oppressive, dark, shattered shapes of this amazing building are the perfect structure for such museum.
This is a hard one for me to post. Normally, while I am painting, I watch something educational on the tv. That helps to babysit my conscious mind and allow my energy/chi/qi to flow from me through my brush. But, I think I didn't have anything like that to watch this day and I ended up watching a war movie. It might have been "Thin Red Line" but am not sure. Anyway, it was quite a violent movie and I feel like that comes out in the painting.
Since my goal is to bring good/peaceful energy into the world, it is hard for me to post this one because I think it shows the turmoil of war. I think we have plenty of that kind of energy in the world already. Still, it is a unique piece and a part of my body of work... I think I painted this in 2002 or 2003.

The War Memorial in Regency Square was erected to commemorate the 152 soldiers of the Royal Sussex Regiment who died between 1900-1902 in the Boer War. It was unveiled on October 29th 1904 by the Marquess of Abergavenny, Lord Lieutenant of Sussex. The bronze statue, modelled on a sergeant sounding the charge, is based on a real incident that took place during the South African campaign at Doornkop. The pedestal is surmounted by four artillery shells.
It is signed C. HARTWELL 1904

Sally Harrison Steward Minge Pickett
Birth: August 8, 1829, Richmond City, Virginia
Death: November. 13, 1851, Texas
Miss Minge, the first wife of General George Pickett, was the daughter of Dr. John Minge and Mary Griffin Adams Minge of Weyanoke Plantation near Richmond. On 22 December 1850 George met Sally in Franklin, Louisiana. The wedding was on 28 January at St. Mary's Episcopal Church. According to family tradition the couple went to New Orleans for a wedding trip and stayed in the St. Charles Hotel. The majority of time was spent with Col. Richard A. Wiliness and Sally's sister, Margaret, at the Arlington Plantation on the Bayou Teche.
She died in childbirth after an Indian raid on the 13 Nov. 1851 at Ft. Gates, Texas. George took leave and escorted the bodies home to be buried at Shockoe Cemetery. She is buried in the Johnston Family Plot near George Pickett's maternal Grand parents. The cemetery cards tell us that the child is buried with her. Some have identified the infant as being a male.
Miss Minge was the great great grandniece of U.S. President William Henry Harrison, and the great great granddaughter of Benjamin Harrison, who signed the Declaration of Independence.
