Mr. Crouch,
While that might be true, I imagine some would hesitate to run into a crumbling building. Not everyone would be so willing to risk their own life.

And I fully understand the desire to put it behind you. I'd like to as well but it seems to be the only thing my art portrays at the moment. That or flowers and I doubted that was really something you'd like. Regardless, should you prefer something better once this abysmal fog has left us, I have started attempting portraits and would gladly do one for you if you'd like. But if not, I do wish you the best and that you have no more run ins with those disgusting creatures.
Sincerely,
Z. Potts
