... And for all the Friends of course :-)
This is why a make Art.
This is why I stay, notwithstanding some sad evil episodes, on Flickr that just reflect how is the world, so, nonsense to escape it, better to fight, protect the others and try to become better persons.
Art is a catharsis or, as an Artist Friend would say, it serves as exorcism of the evil.
My diversity in art (and as a person) has been disrespected, insulted, abused, till the point I decided to leave 3 groups and in one of those, my leave has been anticipated by a ban and delete of all my art pictures shared in that group. A retaliation for having left two groups run by the same Admin who stupidly revenged because I spoke and asserted my point, with courage, sincerity and intellectual honesty.
I will add that he didn't succeed to offend me, I feel attaked frontally but I'm unable to suffer for that sad people. I'm stronger than him, I know ;-)
( The whole story can be found at my fore last post or clicking directly on the link to picture: flic.kr/p/2oJcdMx ) .
Thank you dear Friend Richard Harvey, for your purity, your courage, your self control, your will to understand, your sense of equity, your acceptance of diversities, your intellectual honesty and, especially, your support, friendship and affection which moved me to repaint this work for YOU! <3 \WA/
As I paint by perception and I never stop until I'm done, I had not saved a copy of my work in progress without the portions that I now find unecessary (the arrow, the lettering, although I consider Lettering one of my most favorite Arts). For this reason, one third of my work, included the target, is totally newly repainted.
I will send you the download but, if you prefer, I can print it and send you the physical work with the postal service, with my best compliments and deepest sympathy.
Thank you, dear Richard Harvey, to be among us and on Flickr !!

Triumphant skies this morning on the hills!
The show has leasted more than one hour, I took many pictures, it was freezing cold but, nevermind, that was truly worthy for my eyes & soul.

"Papà, watch over me from up there" (!!)
This work is dedicated to the Man I loved and love the most. My Daddy Silvio.
From two initial AI tests, while I was preparing the setting to take a photo in your memory... But it's been raining all day and no bright natural light for my shooting, so I focused on this other project.
Tunes & mood: youtu.be/OsXiepZOpcM
Song " Signore delle cime " (Our Lord of peaks), written by a dear friend of my Dad, Italian musician, composer, song writer, choir director M° Bepi De Marzi. Here performed by the 4600 singers of the Arena di Verona, on the occasion of the event Chants for Peace, 2015. youtu.be/9at3BGFb2g4 (Original lyrics in Italian + translations here below in comment boxes).
In the third anniversary of the loss of my beloved Daddy, Silvio, on March 2 2020, I want to publish this experiment as the prompt I instructed pleased me and went very close to what I was imagining. Daddy appears on top of a hill kissed by the sun and a strange writing in the sky....
The sea, the mountains and a river strangely flowing parallel and not perpendicular to the sea are the image I've clearly fixed in my mind from when I've dreamed Paradise. The odd thing is that, these 3 elements of the resulting image have NOT been instructed by me.
I'm right now engaged in a still life shooting I want to dedicate to my Dad but, in the meantime, I urge to publish this amazing image. (Read below for up-dates as I worked on it, painted over and replaced the image of this post with my own work few hours after my first up-load).
I tried to merge the two tests images and added some digital hand painting as enlightening to sort out an unique ultimate result, improved with my manual intervention to be added to my previous mind intervention in instructing the prompt.
Therefore, I might replace this AI image flic.kr/p/2ojxigv in the next few hours with my own art derived from it and elaborated with my own digital painting and few elements added to the compo from my own photos.
Stay tuned...I won't sleep.
Up-date: replaced ! New caption: Assisted Ink drawing style image and manual digital painting from two initial AI images instructed by me, then partially merged together (with my editing software, not via a prompt), added at 2 of my photos for some details (camouflaged cockatiel parrots standing on my fist and Sempervivum bouquet of flowers).
The portion of the image on the far right has been completely painted by me to widen the very narrow initial image (visible in my previous up-load), then I worked on the liquid parts, I painted on some water falls, improved mountains, sky, painted few more clouds, lil birds flying. A good portion of the hair is also painted and shaded by me. I have preferred to also surgically repair the visible arm and fist.
Finally I have edited it with light adjustment and strenghthened the light around the central mountains and the male figure on the far left. ZOOM in for watching details and some surprises...
I hope you like, especially hope my Daddy will like it or that it will mean something to him when he sees this dedication work from up high.

Tunes* 'Sins' (read further below for more) www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5TkFNSMkNM (my video 'Rebellion Poem' in English + Danish)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3ezuhjrps4 (my video 'Poema della Ribellione' remastered in Italian).
The lyrics of the song 'Sins' (Tomorrow I will wash off my sins in the shower ...) recalled me, per analogy the meaning of Shrove Tuesday, as moment of purification, in preparation of the Christian Lent (Quaresima). And in fact, Carnival (from the Latin 'Carnem Levare'), celebrates a period of full enjoyment, to relief our miseries and lift up our body sufferences up to Mardi Gras but, from Wednesday of the Ashes, the invitation for the Lent is to deepen in a more spiritual, mystic modality. A 'memento mori' of meditation, of reasoning about the terrible sacrifice of Jesus, before reaching the Resurrection Day with Easter. (All this, said with my own simple words).
⏩ For all the Friends in occasion of the last day of Carnival, made for and especially dedicated to my dear Friend and great Photographer Ezio Famà aka Qi Bo. Visit his amazing stream !
Please, see my comment below to find his original photo, taken at the Carnival in Taormina from which I derived my work.
When I first saw his Carnival Shooting Collection, I literally fell in love with all his extra colourful street photos. Especially this one entitled
' A fantastic Woman ' ... lead me to ask him permission to make new derivative art from.
With much gratitude to Ezio, I'd also wish to add my big thanks for all he daily does in the hospital where he works as a Anesthetist Doctor in Sicily, in the reanimation/resuscitation rooms and surgery rooms, contributing to save many lives, every day.
*Tunes: "Sins" by the UK Indie-Folk Band Wise Children and my montage on a Yoube video turned with their agreement in our free sharing source project, with the collaboration of Art and the Poem "Rebellion" by artist J.Sibbern.
