Dad not in China!

A few years ago, I decided to do this oil painting of my Dad for his 80th Birthday.
I was telling him about my trip to China so when I painted it I put him in a mountainous background and told him it was China! It could had been many places I suppose but I wanted to put him somewhere that his imagination would have liked to go.

End of Gaddafi

Finally the mad tyrant is dead.
I made this drawing on my IPAD back in August and expected his end then.
One thing about this is that such a violent end is not a good start for a new regime. Take my word for it, when a regime ends with violence another violent regime that goes from one revolutionary extreme to another takes over.
What’s more it is perhaps time to question all those Western regimes that helped such a vermin stay in power for so long, I mean it is one thing for the British PM to remind us all of the tragic death of PC Ivan Fletcher and the Lockerbie bombings and another when not so long ago we are remind that Tony Blair went off to Libya shaking the hand of this madman.
