"Some people think it's holding on that makes one strong- sometimes it's letting go." - Anonymous
This week's topic had me stumped. Really liked the illustrations using motherhood as a strength topic. Didn't want to do a strong man, though I saw some good muscleman iillustrations at IllustrationFriday.com. So I started searching for quotes on strength and found the one above, which got me thinking about the strength I've seen in true peacemakers. We need strong people of peace now more than ever. Started with a sketch, brought it into Photoshop, and played around with layers. Gonna have to start varying the technique here pretty soon, I guess. Peace, everyone.

Great interpretation of this week topic.
Nice work.
Well done. Peace to you as well. Cheers!
I love this interpretation. Very nice work...
you've offered a wonderful take on 'strength.'
i think this is a really good illustration...i like the hands, especially.
I think this is both visually and conceptually beautiful. I love how you created the dove, and I love the background...it provides a contrast to the lightness of the flight.
I really like this submission - nice alternate take on the topic. Are they open mouths I see on the right in the blue? Lovely Dove - Peace :)
What a lovely piece. I like your photoshop technique very much.

That's funny - I did the same thing! I was trying to search for a quote as well to inspire myself. I like what you've chosen, and the illustration is nicely done.
WOW! This is beautiful! The drawing works perfectley with the quote! Now I'm inspired to work on my illustration :)
Very nice illustration, wonderful sentiment.
