    Hi CT64,

    this is only a traditional formula to say Merry Christmas in Russian - like Frohe Weihnachten or Feliz Navidad, one doesn't need an exact translation.

    if you like this kind of visual arts, you may find more of it on the official website of Ed Unitsky - www.edunitsky.net

    Aloha Andrew,

    I looked at the Gallery of images on Unitsky's site and saw one that that spoke to me of Jesus as the Uniting Bridge between we as humans and God the Father: http://www.edunitsky.net/pix/Gallery...sus-Ed-Unitsky

    A personal observation: Unitsky seems to dabble with a few different *elements*, yea, syncretism comes to mind. Anyway, thats what I find as off-putting.

    Have you seen the work of Tom M. Walker? Here is his big collection that I find most compelling: http://www.tommwalker.co.uk/Triptychs/index1.htm

    Best regards,

    CD

    Hey!!!

    Unitzky is not a phylosopher, he is just a genius graphic designer!! You can find the pics of Buddah by him as well!!!!) Take him easy

    Thank you for the link to Tom Walker - no , I had no idea about him. Graphic design is smth. I truly enjoy, in all varieties - the main thing is, it must be good!!

    Aloha Andrew,

    Yes, I see that he is a very adept graphic designer - I do take him easy, not as a philosopher. You know very well how powerful *imagery* is. The big problem is when people who have little educational background or are oblivious to different Faith systems see graphic design images where different Faith systems are combined.

    In Christs Love,
