:: Kjellaug Hatlen Lunde: Paintings "Because we care" and "Duck Bear" ::
Kjellaug writes: Here are two paintings I made during the war in Gaza this Dec/Jan. The first one, "Because we care", is a reactions to Shimon Peres' explanation of why so few Israeli children died in the war as compared to the number of Palestinian children: "Because we take care of our children". - The "Duck Bear" reminds us of how many teddys, toys, parents, sisters and brothers are left in sorrow after this awful bombing of civilians - on purpose. To create fear. A terror action. - Greetings from Tromsoe, Norway, Kjellaug Hatlen Lunde

(NB: The two pictures below are, in fact, high resolution press photos, so if your newspaper or high gloss magazine wants to print them, please let me know. Anis)
