Description of the Artwork “Ashes of Glory”
This piece, as well, was inspired by the outcome of the long lasting Syrian civil war. Hundreds of thousands of Syrians have been killed and some twelve million people have been displaced. I made this painting in June 2019. The medium is acrylic on canvas of size 47x47 inches. I have signed it on the front. The stretched canvas is staple free sides, wired on the back and with no need for framing. It's ready to hang.

For me, creativity is a derivative of mode and ambience of painting sessions. I believe that, the character of a painting reflects the mode of the artist through brush strokes, texture and colour. I believe, a painting has a life of its own that evolves during painting session. For me, a painting starts to take direction after I cover the canvas with paint. Then I start to solve many problems the painting has, until I end up with a painting that tells a story or delivers a statement. I consider the art of painting as the fastest way to record any artistic idea or to document a situation experienced by the artist as result of being in a given community. I am a believer in the famous saying - if you want to know how great a society is, look at its art.
