Children


The photo of these dead children from today's paper affected me enormously. I feel impotent in front of so much brutality, cowardice and cruelty. I decided to dedicate a happy picture to all the children who need peace and justice. There may be a better world somewhere without cowardly politicians, greedy people and brutal men with weapons.

    MAESTRO GRILLO

    EL CONTRASTE ENTRE ESTA FOTO Y EL LOGRO QUE MANIFIESTA EL ARTE,TU ARTE APLICADO A LA INFANCIA, HACE JUSTICIA ALMENOS POR UN INSTANTE,A TRAVÉS DE LA EMOCIÓN...AQUELGRIS ESCALOFRIANTE, Y ESTA EXPLOSIÓN DE INOCENCIA, UNA COMPOSICION QUE SUBE AL CIELO INFLADO DE COLOR, SOÑANDO SER SIEMPRE ASÍ, ESCAPANDO DEL DOLOR DE LA SINRAZÓN.
    MAESTRO... GRACIAS
