The Peace sign celebrated it's 50 birthday in 2008!
In 1958 artist Gerald Holtom was commissioned by the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament in Britain to create a logo for a march in protest against the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment in Aldermaston, England. Quickly, the image was adopted by many groups as an anti-war symbol.Widely recognized today, this symbol, known as the peace sign, has evolved into an icon of harmony, respect, justice, goodwill, serenity, equilibrium, tranquility, and friendliness. My hope is that when one looks at my paintings, it will conjure up those same thoughts and feelings and aid as a catalyst for spreading peace.
