This is pointillism made with black ink on paper, I then added
watercolors (simply yellow, turquoise and red). Will Barack
Obama succeed in improving our world? I really hope so.

I'm Superman
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
Come to my heart knock on wood
Dont worry, be good I'm your super man
I will let you be what you want to be
Bring you through because I'm superman
Let you have wings - set you free
Fly with me with these wings if you can
Dont pretend just come on and really fly
Everything I said - I'm going to try
Bringing in all the hope I gave
Just you wait and see and - be with me brave
There is no one other - I'm the one
I am the man with the super sign on
Giving you what real power is and test
And you will have to imagine with me the rest
Because I have the powers of kryptonite
There is no way to test such might
But just come with me and see what I can
Together we can - yes we can! Because I'm superman
All the strength that you couldn't know
Is inside and now coming out so fine!
Every power known - now superman shall show
Just watch my symbol as it glows up like sunshine
Mightier than a jet plane Ill fly and I promise you
Everything will be to better put and straight
Promises you thought gone I shall again renew
Take away all doubt and settle each debate
I will let you be what you want to be
Bring you through because I'm superman
Let you have wings - set you free
Fly with me with these wings if you can
Dont pretend just come on and really fly
Everything I said - I'm going to try
Bringing in all the hope I gave
Just you wait and see and - be with me brave
I am the guy who will always stand by your side
Give you opportunities and money in your pocket
Dont you worry - let the worries away ride
I'll be your superman and fly like a rocket
There is no one other - I'm the one
I am the man with the super sign on
Giving you what real power is and test
And you will have to imagine with me the rest
Because I have the powers of kryptonite
There is no way to test such might
But just come with me and see what I can
Together we can - yes we can! Because I'm superman
Yes we can! Yes we can! Yes we can!
Because I'm superman

This is a watercolor painting I made some 9 months before Barack Obama was elected as President of the United States the 4th of November 2008. (I uploaded the picture on Flickr the 3rd of April 2008...)
Mr. Obama gave me new hopes for a better world.

Yes we can
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
Yes we can
When it comes tomorrow
Yes we can
We have no time to borrow
Just understand
Closeness to loves heart
Is all at our command
This heart is made to cure
And set up dreams come true
Take away times insecure
And make some time for you
Dont let this heart now cry
With timeless falling rain
Or love from it say goodbye
Because its love was in pain
Yes we can
When it comes tomorrow
Yes we can
We have no time to borrow
All is happening right now
To offer new peace its try
Making it together somehow
Wherever true affluence lie
Yes this we must all work on
To discover lives ingenuous gift
Before our conducts is gone
Into days of desperate shift
Yes we can
When it comes tomorrow
Yes we can
We have no time to borrow
Just understand
Closeness to loves heart
Is all at our command...

Bad Boy Because
A poem by Peter S. Quinn www.poemhunter.com/peter-s-quinn/
There are moments lost in my natural sky
Feeling times that are done to nothing
Every time travel there asking reasons why
Sometimes giving no answers - just bluffing
Taking my heart to pieces in each try
When I reach down to deepest of my low
Finding no answers to keep me still high
When my life is a shadow of darkish glow
Answering nothing of its reasons and why
Only time spaces between goings to fly
I´m not a substitute for agent 007
Only awake up call to be taken seriously
I'll give you a touch of my heaven
If you are behaving mysteriously
Because I´m a man in black
Pointing my future at you
Keeping you on the right track
Anything to get you here through
Nothing to get exited either way
Only point-blank clear for its go
Feeling pressures of a coming play
To the hours that I don’t know
Drifting by and by in their flowing
In the answers that never come
Always something either way going
To somewhere it all is from
Nothing taking a turn to more
Just a seat in the corner of dark night
Coming to nowhere in what it’s all for
Because it has lost all its flight
Nothing more to be done or said
For my decisions are staying right here
Don’t worry- be happy – stay ahead
Just agree and everything’s clear
Whenever you try - it's getting lost
Like a flight into nothing from nowhere
Feeling downsides and double-crossed
Reaching to nowhere from here to there
Because I´m a man in black
Pointing my future at you
Keeping you on the right track
Anything to get you through
Because I´m the man in black
Pointing my future to go
Because I´m the man in black
In point-blank clear to blow

This is a total digital painting... several hours of work. There could
have been more textures in the skin and details in the hair to make
it look even more realistic, but I just love this "wax" feeling... :)
