the Army: a little bridge anyone?


(c) 2006 Elton Houck... "Army: a little bridge, anyone? " (from the series "WHEN JHONNIE COMES MARCHING HOME AGAIN"

"


.This is a photo reworked via scanology.The central subject is my father with his outfit building a bridge. Dad is the soldier slinging the ax.


This was taken at Fort Lewis in Washington in 1942 before my dad was shipped overseas to fight in WWII (the 2nd "WAR TO END ALL WARS"). This feat will never be accomplished until Jesus puts an end to war and then rules the world for a 1,000 years of peace at which time men will not even remember war anymore!

.This is part of my SCANOLOGY process...The original work )in this particular case) is a photograph which is scanned...and then the real work begins to enhance the image using only the scanner without any additional hardware...I hope the final rendition of this work is pleasing and satisfactory to my viewers. Many thanks for your comments and your support of my scanology and other "off the wall" art proceedures and endeavors. ...


The saga continues....for how long, only God knows!



If your heart cries out to get the gospel to the persecuted while there is time,,,THE VOICE OF THE MARTYRS has a subsidary mission wing for distrubiting Bibles to eager seekers in China...If you would like to be a part of this great latter day Harvest, here is the URL : https://www.biblesunbound.com/qrs/mc_logon.taf

Looks like the armies engineering department! The old days certainly were difficult because bridge building is no easy task...
