Sketch #watercolor based on photo. I came across this haunting image of a child holding a photo of her deceased father, killed in the #CivilWar . It brought to mind the the many children who have lost their fathers and mothers in #Ukraine , killed by #Putin@johnsweeneyroar September 11, 2022
Sketch ( incl. #watercolor #gouache #ink )My friend, torture survivor and #HumanRights warrior, #MazenAlHamada has never given up hope for a #FreeSyria , where peace, equality, and democracy, buries #Assad #Putin ‘s genocidal oppression. 930 days since Mazen was disappeared. September 10, 2022
Sketch.When the #CaesarPhotos , proving #Assad ‘s torture and murder of thousands of #Syrian #civilians , were published, my friend #MazenAlHamada thought the world would finally act. He was crushed when silence pervaded.924 days missing in #Assad ‘s hell-scape.@UN @POTUS September 4, 2022
Sketch (incl. #gouache/#ink) from #CaesarPhotos .Like the #Nazis before them, #Assad and #Putin , document their atrocities, believing, with evil hubris, they will escape justice. Normalizing relations with #Assad will pave the way for continuing #impunity . @UN @hrw September 2, 2022
Sketch (incl. #gouache #ink) from #CaesarPhotos .These horrific photos of tortured, mutilated, sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, will bury #Assad . Unearthing the mass graves in #Syria #Ukraine will swallow #Putin and #Assad , and make their names synonymous with evil.@UN August 31, 2022
Sketch (incl. #gouache) from #CaesarPhotos .These faces cry out to us. They demand we dig, scrape, and fight for justice.Thousands of civilians have been tortured to death by #Assad in #Syria . Thousands remain. What will you do? @UN @HolocaustMuseum @Charles_Lister @RonanLTynan August 29, 2022
Sketch.Many of my friend #MazenAlHamada ‘s photos show him in transit-on a bus, train, plane, traveling to expose #Assad #Putin ‘s #WarCrimes to the world. Now he has been disappeared in #Syria for 916 days, it is our duty to continue his mission.@HolocaustMuseum @badiucao August 27, 2022
Sketch from eyewitness photo. This child should have been a teenager by now, listening to music, laughing with friends.Instead they lie in the cold earth, murdered by #Assad ‘s #sarin attack on #Ghouta #Syria 9 yrs. ago. Let the regime rot in prison or hell, whatever comes first. August 24, 2022
