Description
Guided by Death------------------------------------------------------
First of all I would like to state that this image is not meant to offend anyone.I have served my country as a soldier in the past.Its just my personal view of war and the tragedy that comes out of it.Its an ART and not anything provoking.
People unfortunately often seem to be guided by a rage and fight each other blindly just to bring death upon their enemies.What ever the purpose may be the result is always the same, the loss of the precious human life...Thats why you can see death standing over the soldier and seem to be giving him the next target.Death is what always appears during war,and war brings pain and countless tears of blood...
Thank you all for viewing and I hope that you understand that this is just a clearly art aspect on how war looks in my mind.

you're welcome.
Any particular time period you thought of when making it? Looks like a kinda old uniform, but I may be wrong. :T

A good amount of people who do not understand this probably does not know what what those soldiers go through out there, and that death indeed is always standing right next to you during war.
A wonderful piece that speaks in volume. Well done

Thank you very much for the nice and meaningful comment my friend.Im really happy some people out there can get the real meaning under this picture.Sadly,some times you have to go through in a soldier's shoes to realize how that feels and being surrounded by death all around.It's nothing personal,just my personal point of view about a soldier's life,the war and death itself.Everything is connected to eachother.
I really appreciate your words.
