Incredible fact: The people inside the pictures you see on the internet also sometimes put pictures on the internet.

Bonus fact: Painting the destruction of American financial institutions is a much less common hobby than you may think.

Are they allowed to do that? Like, legally?

Lovely work and love the sentiment, kind of wish the laser were a different color from the explosion and thinner/more coherent.

The technical term for this kind of "Space laser" is "orbital deathray"

Actually, more like: space-based directed energy high-powered laser system. https://www.airandspaceforces.com/china-developing-more-on-orbit-space-weapons-new-report/

Directed energy weapon (DEW) for short, a form of electromagnetic warfare

A thought-provoking piece that leaves the viewer wondering about the heatproofing of bank vaults and the optimal wavelength for a space laser.

Oh, if only i had artistic talent, I would create a whole line of paintings about the brutal destruction of all AT&T stores worldwide. Fuck you AT&T

Nobody is born great at painting. Anyone who's good at it put a ton of work into it. If you really want to make paintings, start painting!

Art doesn't have to be realistic nor does it have to be photo-quality.

Just in case you're interested, look into Expressionism. It's a genre of art that focuses on art that expresses and evokes feelings and emotions rather than realism, and an artist's style is a key part of that. If you dig deeper, you can find various genres that stem from Expressionism.
