Very nice colors and details. Now that armed conflict is really finished, we all hope (as citizens of the world) that this form of culture can be preserved. Here in Portugal, we had a few walls with political messages that were trully art pieces. And I'm not reviewing my self in those paintings, but they are part of a country / city popular art, which all of us ("artists") must defend and preserved. But, unfortunelly they were destroyed.
Cheers
Fred

The caption right below his head could not be more acurate. Great to see some people who aren't afraid to express the way they feel in a public display. If only the American media would show us how the world really feels about our government/foreign policy. Thanks for sharing.
