I absolutely love the misery and destruction contained in this picture.
Not to mention how amazingly done it is in general.
Just awesome!
It's a damn shame you didn't put it up in a higher resolution though, if such exists of this painting.

LotharZhou In reply to TerraRossa-1389 [2012-11-05 09:32:00 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for your kind compliments, I don't normally paint in large size. It's just easier and quicker for me to finish it.

LotharZhou In reply to RadoJavor [2011-12-15 09:42:05 +0000 UTC]

Com'on Rado, you know it's not true. But recently I am more into impressionism style compare to my previous paintings.

As JanBoruta said; great atmosphere and colour.

It's good to see the good old British Tommy getting some artistic recognition.
