The Hand of Peace | Brian Gaynor Photography

The Hand of Peace

One of these days, I will return to posting photographic images. For now, though, I want to add another piece of art created by my wife, Bridget.

Looking through various sketches, I came across this gem, and really liked the color and variety of doodles on the hand — from peace symbols to hearts to smiley faces to…Fred Flintstone. This work is a real throwback to the Flower Power era of the 70’s.
