There are few artists who are capable of being compared to Picasso, but Rattana, who labors over each of her creations for more than 6 months, is that artist.
Valentine makes you look at innocence from a different angle.
Alone in the world and dreaming of more.

We recommend evaluating Valentine independent of Alice. This will allow each to speak to you in its own way.

Half in, half out of the water? Who takes a photo like this?? This is a ship-launched, lightweight Mark 46 torpedo designed to attack high-performance submarines. This torpedo weighs 508 lbs in warshot configuration, has a range of 12,000 yd (6.8 mi), swims up to 46 mph, and dives to a depth of 1,200 ft. Don't even think about it. This fish can't go in your fish tank.

This Anti-Submarine Rocket (ASROC) could be armed with an acoustic homing torpedo or with a W44 nuclear depth charge. The W44 has a 10 kiloton yield ("Little Boy" dropped on Hiroshima had a 15 kiloton yield). All ships in the area must be more than 8,000 yds (4.5 mi) from the point of underwater nuclear detonation to avoid being damaged themselves. Kinda like sawing a tree branch you're sitting on and crossing your fingers that you're on the correct side of the cut.

Aleena is an endangered Asian elephant who was born on May 6, 2004. She was 14 yrs old when she painted this picture, and she loves to paint many different pictures of flowers. Aleena is the royal elephant of the Princess of Thailand, Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani Vadhana. She and the princess share the same birthday.

Throughout history, elephants have been revered by the Thai people and remain a permanent symbol of their culture. The Asian elephant population has significantly declined due to habitat loss and agricultural mechanization. Regrettably, these beautiful animals are now on the endangered species list. As we learned from the extinction of the Passenger Pigeon, an immediate and honest conservation effort must be made to defend the Asian elephant against its extinction.

Nammoey is an endangered Asian elephant who was born in 2009. She was 11 yrs old when she painted this picture. She was rescued from elephant traffickers when she was just one year old.

Such an amazing peacock to behold! We estimate that Manoon painted more than 10,000 brush strokes and dots to create his masterpiece. We laughed with him when he told us that one day he came up with this great idea: to make this unique Peacock on a huge canvas. Miserably, with his painting only half done, he came to a terrible epiphany: all these brush strokes and dots were hurting his health and driving him mad. Precisely then, Peacock became Manoon's fifth circle of hell. He started out climbing a hill and discovered he was really climbing Mount Everest. For many, this painting would have remained forever unfinished, gathering dust in some corner. After eight grueling months, the world has Peacock to enjoy. We have the greatest admiration and respect for Manoon; we hope you do too!

Who doesn't love elephants? This painting captures the true essence of these endangered animals. Elephants have an uncanny ability to adapt and are one of the most intelligent creatures on earth. The mother can give birth to 12 calves in her lifetime, each pregnancy lasting around 22 months. Adults consume 330 lbs of food each day (60 tons every year). Caring for and protecting them is a daunting task. Elephants are able to recognize themselves in a mirror, an important indicator of self-awareness. Nid's Elephant (right side) can be your "elephant in the room". This magnificent mammal seems like he could walk right out of your painting -- Jumanji style. Help us protect these noble spirits.

The Return of Spring, painted in 1886 by William-Adolphe Bouguereau, adorns the collection of the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha, Nebraska. Joslyn acquired this masterpiece as a gift from Francis T.B. Martin in 1951. It stands more than 6 feet 7 inches tall and it's worth making a trip to Omaha to admire it in person. It's rumored that Bouguereau's mistress served as his inspiration for the painting. Through the years, the painting has been attacked twice, once in 1890 and again in 1976. Thankfully, only a small amount of damage resulted each time. The attackers, separated by more than 80 years, were offended by the painting's sensual nudity. We're truly dumbfounded by the 1976 attack.

The American Flamingo is the only flamingo species native to North America, but is rarely seen in the United States anymore. Flamingos embody the saying, "you are what you eat." Their pink and reddish colors come from eating pigments found in algae and invertebrates. They're often seen standing on one leg to preserve body heat, tucking the other leg into their feathers to keep it warm. The Flamingo population is mostly affected by what happens to their habitats and breeding grounds.

In 1918, our world became a less colorful place with the extinction of the Carolina Parrot, also known as the Carolina Parakeet. This 12 inch long bird was frequently killed by farmers who viewed them as crop pests. Unfortunately, the Carolina Parrot made this easier for the farmers because it had the habit of gathering around their fallen comrades. Additionally, hunters killed them for them for their beautiful feathers, which was a popular hat accessory during this time. Now the Carolina Parrot serves as a stark warning for us to carefully look at how our actions affect our little friends so more species don't go the way of the Carolina Parrot.

In the 1800's, the population of the Passenger Pigeon numbered as high as five billion. They were the most abundant bird in North America. It is believed that the Passenger Pigeon named Martha, who died in the Cincinnati Zoo on September 1, 1914, was the very last of her kind. The main reasons for their extinction are the intense scale of their hunting, the rapid loss of their habitat, and their extremely social nature, which made them more helpless to our activities. Passenger Pigeons represent a failed conservation effort on our part because no one believed their extinction was even possible and because our efforts happened too late to save them. Five billion to extinct in 114 years.

Before 1900, the Red-shouldered Hawk was the one of the most common North American raptors. Since then, their population has been significantly reduced by the clearing of the wet hardwood forests they prefer. Additionally, they were affected by unchecked hunting and DDT use until conservation laws took effect in the later half of the 20th century. Also, power lines and cars routinely exact a toll on these guys. Their most common call sound is the unmistakable 'kee-aah' and are so loud that they are known as America’s most vocal hawks. Their red shoulders are visible when they're perched. Being carnivores, they feed on gophers, mice, snakes, fish, other birds, and large insects, to name a few.

The ghost-like appearance of the Snowy Owl speaks of its Arctic origins. With sharp eyesight and remarkable hearing, the Snowy Owl is a patient hunter, perching and waiting to locate its prey before soaring off in pursuit. They frequently snatch their invisible quarry from under snow cover and thick vegetation. Their favorite meal is lemmings -- small mouse-like rodents, and each adult can eat more than 1,600 lemmings every year. Because the Snowy Owl is migratory, they're difficult to accurately study, but recent data indicates their population is in sharp decline. Even though the causes are not well-understood, many complex factors commonly associated with global warming seem to be in play. Snowy Owls usually mate for life and will fiercely defend their nests from all comers, even wolves.

Tan is a wonderfully handsome cat with a very regal look. His mom was a pregnant, young stray named Bowie who had a deep blue eye and a beautiful green one - heterochromia. Bowie, named after David Bowie, was adopted directly from the street. In this pic, Tan is showing off his mane. You should see how cute he is sporting his little "lion cut."
