Donetsk Airport

 Using imagery from the Donetsk airport where there was intense fighting I have experimented with range. The first image is of smashed glass stained with blood. I’m not sure that the texture f the sharp glass fragment has been properly realised. The second is zoomed out much more to an aerial view of the airfield after heavy shelling. The difference in the viewpoint of these two images creates an element of abstraction as they are removed from our everyday view. I think that the painting could have been a little stronger as this looks to be a bit rushed. The third image is of the destroyed tower at the centre and provides a mid level viewpoint. I quite like the elongated shape of this painting but again I think it could have used more detail.
