Illustrations Friday!

Tranquility. Didn't really care for this as the word of the week...I guess I don't feel very tranquil. Got lots of stuff to do and various thoughts pop into my head that make my troubles really just seem so minute and frivolous that I start feeling ashamed for getting carried away with my petty concerns.

Now, that I've got that out on to IF. Tranquility, or Peace and tranquility...I just don't think anyone or thing can be tranquil unless there isn't a moment of peace in their lives. So, I did this little painting. The title is a bit long but it's about the painting:
The God of War hid the God of Peace and Tranquility. Only through the Gods and Goddess' of Protest and Justice could Peace be found.

I actually felt better doing this little painting. Funny how that works...

Thank you all for the lovely comments! I thinking of Alison's idea of writing a little story about them. It certainly would be fun to try.

Oh, and don't worry Valaine...the God and Goddess of Protest and Justice are freeing Peace and Tranquility. War is tethered for the moment. I think Protest and Justice will succeed, however, I think that the God of War will still break free...sadly.
