did he make peace paintings, vs. war paintings?

[@ThePooper3000]

He's made several paintings of warriors, and a few with the hippy peace symbol, but I don't think he's made any paintings that contained both themes of war and peace.

Ugly, brutal, and if you don´t know that it was produced by a "famous artist" you would think, that somebody with a disturbed mind painted it. "Art"?
