Hello, All,

Thank you for the tremendous encouragement and appreciation you have given me. This is all an artist desires.

Here is one more of mine on the 911 terror attack.

Like they say, a work of art should speak for itself.

Quote: "More often than not, [people] expect a painting to speak to them in terms other than visual, preferably in words, whereas when a painting or a sculpture needs to be supplemented and explained by words, it means either that it has not fulfilled its function or that the public is deprived of vision." - Naum Gabo

Still, I reckon I should explain the theme of the painting.

The 911 attack was a work of diabolical and evil genius.

Not only did I want to portray the violent event, but show in a subtle way how the "spirit of New Yorkers" shone through while coping with the disaster.

Now about the elements in the painting:

- A blazing inferno is all that is left of the Twin Towers.
- Due to the shock of the impact, the other buildings are shaking and seem to melt, like candles, due to the heat generated.
- The Brooklyn River has turned red, indicating the death of thousands.
- The Brooklyn Bridge is also trembling and quivering.

However, the people of NY tackled the disaster bravely and brought the city back to normal as soon as possible. This fact is represented by the still functioning and shining lights on the stay-cables of the Bridge.

Hope you like it.
