Bus stop guy, something Random that put into my Journal from 10-29-15. The writing below it is this. “Broken Souls, so many have lost their Divine calling. Now they have their false God’s to fill the empty space in their life. #lenny_french_artist #leonardos_workshop #rockfordillinois #rockfordartist #Divine #all_life_is_precious #artofthenew #art #artshow #jornal @horseflower_creativehotspot @k.c.g.2015 @rockford_dance_company @rockfordcitymarket @northendcitymarket @emilyhurd @jessicametras @sarahef66 @sarahlarson9036 @rockfordartsforall @rockfordart @sideshowgallerychicago @milwaukeeart @_rockford_il_ @therockfordbuzz (at Horseflower's Creative Hotspot)

All most done, just a few more things to do. This painting has put me in so many ways, it help me as a artist and as a individual grow. Like I said before this painting is really per-say isn’t about the holocaust, but more about the nature of Tyranny in General and the evils that come out of it. No matter the race, ethnic, sex, religion or Orientation. Tierney eventually lead to the of freedom and men’s in humanity to man. #lenny_french_artist #last_train_to_clarksville #kandinskyscreativegroup #rockfordillinois #rockfordart #painting #horseflowersrockford #last_train_to_clarksville @k.c.g.2015 @horseflower_creativehotspot @rockfordartsforall @therockfordbuzz @gorockford @gorockford @danielakamachistudio @northendcitymarket @rockfordsymphony @gorockford @therockfordbuzz @jenny1396 @artindiscovery @jessicametras @rockfordicehogs (at Horseflower's Creative Hotspot)

So next Month is Breast Cancer awareness month, Also the Fall ArtScene is 6th,7th of October. So I made up my mind to have a 2in 1 show. So 2 art Show in the same space, the one show I titled the "TaTa" show. So artwork that in this show, is based around breast cancer and the artist experience with in some way. So I have been working on this idea about the scars and seeing what emotion center around see the scars and the aftermath of removing the cancer. So here some idea drawings. #lenny_french_artist #leonardosworkshop #tata_show#art #artscene #breastcancer #artgallery #rockfordartist #horseflowersrockford #kandinskyscreativegroup @breastcancer_awareness @emilyhurd @sarahef66 @ingriddohm @jenny1396 @dreweurek @danielakamachistudio @kathalynhz @rockfordcitymarket @enginestudio @northendcitymarket @rockfordartsforall @rockfordart @rockfordom @therockfordbuzz @_rockford_il_ (at Horseflower's Creative Hotspot)

So yesterday I talked about the white stripes in the background on the painting #last_train_to_clarksville and as my followers what those stripes stand for? We'll this stripes stand for the uniforms that prisoners in Nazi's deaths had to wear, I like how abstract they are. But yet ghostly or hunting they feel and look. #lenny_french_artist #leonardosworkshop #kandinskyscreativegroupamore #artofthenew #rockford #rockfordartist #expressionism #last_train_to_clarksville #divine #the_tree_of_tyranny #neverforget @glennbeck @k.c.g.2015 @horseflower_creativehotspot @northendcitymarket @rockfordom @rockfordartsforall @ingriddohm @kathalynhz @enginestudio @rockfordcitymarket @dreweurek @jenny1396 @danielakamachistudio @ingriddohm @sarahef66 @emilyhurd @art (at Horseflower's Creative Hotspot)

Well done for tonight on this painting #last_train_to_clarksville, many people say you can't control where a painting want to go. I say it isn't the painting controling me, it is the Divine. I am no more great than the paint brush that I hold in my hand. I'm the tool that the Divine uses to show his love and wisdom through. This is a painting for the ages not for one person to hold, this is a paint for all of mankind. A warning about the drug of Tierney and what dark fruit this tree will give, if we don't remember the pass. #lenny_french_artist #leonardosworkshop #last_train_to_clarksville #divine #divinepath #jews #artofthenew #Tree_of_Tierney #rockford #rockfordartist #art #gallery #fineart @dreweurek @danielakamachistudio @rockfordart @sarahef66 @therockfordbuzz @jenny1396 @emilyhurd @kathalynhz @enginestudio @ingriddohm @rockfordartsforall @northendcitymarket @rockfordom @rockfordcitymarket @k.c.g.2015 @horseflower_creativehotspot (at Horseflower's Creative Hotspot)

So working still on the paint #last_train_to_clarksville, as you can see there white lines starting to show up in the background. Let see if I can test my followers a little bit, what do you think the white lines represent in this painting? I will show you tomorrow post, but till then happy guessing and the first one of my followers to get it right will get a Oil Pastel drawing of this painting. #lenny_french_artist #leonardosworkshop #expressionism #last_train_to_clarksville #horseflowersrockford #horseflowerscreativehotspotrockfordil #kandinskycreativegroup #art #painting #rockford #rockfordartist #artshow #gallery @k.c.g.2015 @horseflower_creativehotspot @northendcitymarket @rockfordcitymarket @kathalynhz @emilyhurd @jenny1396 @sarahef66 @dreweurek @danielakamachistudio @rockfordart @rockfordsymphony #holocaust @therockfordbuzz @ronigolanart (at Horseflower's Creative Hotspot)
