Putin’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, defining him as a war criminal and echoing Hitler’s invasion of Poland in 1939. -political editorial drawing by Steven Salerno

^ ABOVE Putin is yet another strong-arm authoritarian using military force to manifest his ambitions, incapable of operating within moral and social bounds of human rights. His actions invading Ukraine will forever paint the character of his life in blood red. My drawing posted above relates Putin’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine with Hitler’s 1939 invasion of Poland. It is a crude, blunt visual concept depicting both leaders stomping forward, their boots and clothing soaked in blood red. Each man is using their country flag as reason to validate the destruction and sorrow they have unleashed… This drawing was created digitally combined with gouache painted texturing and created for the INXart editorial service/March 2022.
