Original artwork description:

The picture was painted under the impression of the war in Ukraine.
This is the answer to putin's phrase he uttered before he attacked Ukraine, "Like it or don’t like it, it’s your duty, my beauty.”

Russian war against my country caught all of us, me and my family at home. Virtually all the people of Ukraine faced the horror of hostilities and ghastly aggression to one degree or another. The AFU stopped the Russian army near my city.

The first thing I did as soon as the enemy was expelled from my neighbourhood, I painted a picture,
"Whether you like it or not, your empire will be destroyed".
The middle of the picture is the face of the essence of war with the features of a woman, her hair is black smoke. The smell of which is melted iron and the death of everything. She holds a paper ship with the colours of the Russian flag. Her hands are in blood up to her elbows.
I drew military equipment in black smoke from left to right that was moving towards us from all sides on February 24, 2022. On the right is the result they have achieved, i.e. death and destruction.
People who by their words raise thousands of russian men to go and commit crimes in Ukraine are depicted on a white background. In the picture, their mouths are open, and this terrible black smoke comes out of their mouths as a symbol of war. Faces from right to left are
shoigu, lavrov, kirill, peskov, lukashenko, konashenko, prigozhin, zakharova and soloviev.
putin is depicted on the right with his mouth closed; he is silent since the mechanism of war has been launched for a long time.

Could the Russian people have prevented this tragedy by resisting Putin"s regime?
Why are they still doing nothing? Why do millions of them leave their beloved homeland?
These questions sound in my head every day.
Since the population of Russia is 140 million people.. who are these people? And are they humans?
It seems to me that the breakup will help russia. Since their empire collapsed on February 24, 2022.
