Death of a nation
This thought provoking painting depicts the death of a nation, through out history nations had come and gone, most fought valiantly until the end, others volunteered to be destroy.

The painting depicts the voluntarily destruction of the Iraqi nation in abstract form, through the hole of a dark wall, not a sign of life exist; only destructed buildings and rubbles. The green depicts the dead had fertile the ground with their blood that plants emerging from the rubbles. Those few Iraqi had left the nation will serve to enrich the gene pool of the human race, others will speed up the extinction of this Iraqi nation by ethnic and sectarian cleansing or suicide bombing.

Like the holes in lace makes a pattern, this death of a nation abstract painting was contrived in 2007 inspired by media reports of Iraqi dead figures since the war began, and web research into the history of nations formed and gone since Roman times. We are witnessing how history unfolds itself in front of our eyes.

The definition of a painter
A painter paints with skill accumulated from years of practice and patience. A painter is usually a person skilful with their tools and can create great work of art; most artists admire these masters of creators. The few painters who can create and capture an event in their work, usually worth millions.

For example, a painter paints a tiger so skilfully that each of the many millions of the hair on the tiger's back can be seen in the right degree of colour and light facing the wind direction, and even the whiskers over the tiger's facial hair can be seen.

Such a painting takes months of patience, skill and hard work, and will fetch for thousands on the market. The reason that such a piece of work fetch thousands and not millions, a message is missing in the work.

The definition of an artist
An artist captures the historical event and express it in a painting. Everybody can draw to a degree but few can capture an event, artists are like historians who wrote the story of the event impartially, words that we can relate to the logic and behaviour of than civilization.

Creative artists capture the event, be it abstractly or vividly. For example, a simple painting describing four grown ups line in a line, and only wearing pants, laughing and teasing at four other grown ups using their fingers acting as executors executing them.

Such a painting takes days to complete but would fetch millions on the market. As it's a piece of art, capturing a historical event of the time. The artist who painted that painting not necessary a master craftsman, but was able to paint the title of his painting in our head. Yes, you guessed it right.

It's called the 'Mock Execution' by a young Chinese artist who was recording a historical event of the time than in China. This artist is a time impartial historian. Painters who depict and recreate the artist's work worth little.

I used the word 'depict' in my painting in distant sense as events had happen, the art was created by past artist in their world, but perhaps it was once in a life time event in my world that I'm witnessing history without stepping out of my door.

DEATH OF A NATION

Like The Holes In Lace Makes A Pattern:
Through out history, most nations fought valiantly until the end, this perhaps is once in a life time event that we are witnessing nation volunteered to be destroy. Thus the word 'ANNIHILATE' now ring a bell ?

Thanks to media unfolding orders in which provoked my thoughts in the design of above painting, nature proofs opposing particles in atom meet annihilate.

In the science of art, opposing atoms are the event in particle physics describing a set of particle interactions occurring in a brief span of time, the particles annihilate analogy.

As people in event are part of the history as event unfolds, that people cannot see the event as they are part of history, let alone capturing it and express it in a media either abstractly or vividly.

This scientific thought analysis painting takes into account of the probability theory that an event is a set of outcomes, to which a probability is assigned. For example, the throw of a coin land on its face is 50:50 with the third possibility of landing on its edge.

In time interval, an event is the incident or situation which occurs in a particular place during a particular interval of time thus require us to look back into history.
