Excellent Job Sergio
I like how the two horizontal lines from their outfits tie the men together, and ESPECIALLY that the pump in front looks like a huge human heart - really reminding you how they are lifesavers of us and our community.
Much congratulations!
Linda

Sergio,
This is quite an accomplishment, my compliments. And you never had to stop to smell the roses, very clever. I don't think you mentioned where this piece will hang.

Wow. I would just love to see this in person. I admire your willingness to think big, literally and figuratively. Congratulations,

Thank you Chris, for the encouragement!
Regardless of its quite "narrative" content, I still think that the picture has for me more of a compact formal (colors, emotions, shapes) effect.

Thank You Mike for the positive comment.
The picture at this moment is in my Parisian art studio, however I
plan to transfer it to Seattle... so am searching now days a cargo for that...

Hello Linda! The idea of the pump as an allegory of a human heart is really exact, although I never thought about it!
