War: Always a Tsunami of Tragedy

Missing You
20×16″ Acrylic on canvas panel

I posted this before when I was thinking of the war in Ukraine. But with recent events in the middle east I wanted to repost it since it very much applies there as well.

“No one is born hating another person… People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” – Nelson Mandela

Missing You
Acrylic on canvas panel 16×20”

I was thinking of the war in Ukraine as I was painting this. It didn’t start out that way, though. Originally there was going to be a suburban house in the background, yes the heart pierced with an arrow, but more of a lovers apart theme. But as I painted, this is what it wanted to be.
