Thanks for all your help to the USMC, highly appreciated... oh dear, i have finished reading "With the Old Breed" and start reading "A helmet for my pillow" - these books really a hard. Hard for the soul and hard for the heart... i can't find words about what i feel inside about such tragedy of humankind but i am really glad that i read them to educate myself... getting such events from first hand is truely something else than looking a movie or something... can't describe what i feel inside, i'll try explain myself with painting up the bust to finish soon. Best would be dropping some tears about such events...
I am really thankful to Mr. Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg and Clint Eastwood, that their series and movies made me searching for more information about this theme and that i have the chance to get educated by this. I am so thankful that i would love to say thanks to Mr. Hanks, who is an executive producer of "the Pacific" - and after reading the books i see that they have done a lot of their homework for the series out of the first hand books. I am so overwhelmed by this that i want to give this bust directly to Mr. Hanks as a gift to show him my feelings.
Now there is the problem, for sure i don't want to sent my handpainted bust to some agent which maybe will give it to a closer agent of Mr. Hanks. Anyone got an idea how i can direct it directly to Tom Hanks? Any help would be appreciated. I've already wrote an email to HBO and asked different other places... but maybe one of you knows Mr. Hanks better, haha... I am not intrested in becoming an annyouing fanboy, i just want to pay my credits and say thanks... i'll keep you informed about this thought and its progress, but first i have to finish up the bust and bring my own soul and impressions i did get from the complete overwhelming education i am into right now to it.
Also i have to say thanks for all your birthday wishes - i am not the biggest fan of my own birthday, for sure it is getting closer to the number 30 and i am getting even more less a fan of this day, haha... whatever, thanks a lot for your wishes :)
And we got all your entries for the Show your booty! in... will be shown in the next days :) - stay tuned!
Keep on happy painting!
Regards
Roman
maybe you can contact tom hanks via myspace, he's got his own page there. http://www.myspace.com/tomhanks
ReplyDeletereally can't help you out with the whole tom hanks dilemma, but i certainly get where you'Re coming from with this. had a similar reaction to band of brothers and reading the books related to it.
ReplyDeletealso, happy belated birthday, roman. although i don't get why you'd be uneasy about turning 30 soon. my 30th is up next year and as of now i haven't even finished university yet ... still i'm kinda mellow about my age. :)
so i don't know about the rest of your private life, but at least, when you turn 30, you got some things you achieved and that you can be proud of. as long as one can say that, your age will be a good age. :)
Cheers,
Kenza/Mark
If you hate 30 then I can hardly wait to see you when you hit 51 like me. Cheer up, you've got life by the balls my friend. (Sorry if I offended amyone there - not likely). ~Jim

ReplyDeleteI am on it... ultra hardcore annoying jungle style, harhar... thanks for the hint!
@Kenza
Thanks for your words... that calms my soul... always moving up slowly to getting older, in fact it isn't that bad it is just that some men, like me are really concerned when they got a cold too :)
@Jim
Haha... you got me right there ... i have to change this a bit i guess - i don't hate, i am only scared that my body age runs too fast aways of my mind age... :)
If you send it to me, I'll make sure it gets to him. ;)
