I painted Zelenskyy happy, because happiness and joy are some of the reasons he is fighting to save his country.
Joking with his friends. Watching his kids at play. Reminiscing about his childhood adventures with his family.
There are a million reasons for him to be happy and a million reasons for him to fight for his country.
I complain about my life. This stupid thing doesn’t work! What a waste of time! Taxes! Then I think about the people, especially the children, in Ukraine and I realize I have a pretty good life. I don’t have any spare Howitzers to lend them, so I am doing what I can to generate donations for the refugees. All profits from the sales of my Ukrainian Refugee Paintings and prints will be donated to Ukrainian Refugee relief. I am painting 100 of the Ukrainian Refugee paintings
