Artist's Comments
Saturday, October 28th, just days before the 2006 mid-term elections. The people will force the issue of the Iraq war onto the U.S. political stage by taking to streets in demonstrations in cities and towns throughout the United States. Tens of thousands of people will take to the streets in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Seattle, New York, Miami, Washington D.C. and in other large and small cities and towns throughout the United States.
That is of course unless it rains. I had a pretty bad feeling going into this that there would be a poor showing with the weather being so bad and all, but a few of the hardcore anti-war folks did show.
What: 2006 mid-term elections anti-war protest. When: October 28th 2006 Where: Miami Friendship Torch My Website:[link]
Amen to the message here... although, before the U.S decides to leave, they better make sure Iraq doesn't implode with this lovely import of "democracy"

What really captivates me, is the triangle of faces, the two girls and the person of the poster. It adds this strange dynamic that I find hard to explain, but that I still love to see. Also, the contrast between the live people and the people in the posters, where those in the demonstraiton stand still, mouths shut while the poster-people is caught in action, is wondeful.
thank you... I wish I would have planned all that goodness, I'm mostly just lucky

When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
