I am glad to see I am not the only one who felt the need to create something in honor of the tragic events that have occured in our great country. They managed to knock down our towers, but they missed a few bricks! - Carl

I really like your title "Unfallen Bricks". Such a strong concept, and you did a great job implementing it with the brick texture in the American Flag. Well done!

I really loved how you did this one. I was very moved by it and I too loved the unfallen bricks concept. These in the Gallery Challenges have to be some of the finest entries I have ever seen. I knew you all were talented but when your hearts are so totally involved you have shown your talents to the extreme. A truly excellent addition to this challenge Carl.

I am steadied by the concept of our flag and all it symbolizes as unfallen bricks. I admire your ability to think in a unique, direct manner, and love your image.

I posted the "unfallen bricks" montage on a graphic art newsgroup, shortly after I posted it here.

I received a request from a lady asking me if she could use it in her church bulletin.

Low and behold the other day in the mail she sent me copy. I was happy that someone thought it was good enough to use, and I will consider this my first published graphic. I just wish it would have had a very different theme.

If you want to take a look at the bulletin go to-

Congratulations Carl. However when I click on the link I get an error message. Actually it says "sorry, the page you requested is not in service"

That made all the difference. The bulletin looks great. Must feel real good to know that they thought it worthy to publish. I haven't had anything published yet so I envy your talent.

The "brick" flag is both inspired and an inspiration! You had a great idea and carried it out wonderfully!
Now I'm off to visit your website. Thank you:bigthmb:

Thanks Pat, Glad you liked the Unfallen Bricks graphic. There were so many exceptional submissions from this group, and it turned out to be a great way for me to vent out both the anger and sadness I felt at that time.

I saw your post late last night, I know my website was having problems, but I think it is working OK now. Here is a link to the home page, the probably get a few laughs in the graphic art section. You will find a link at the top of the home page.
