American Artist Provides Solace with Portraits of War Dead
A prominent American artist is currently making a name for himself by creating portraits of soldiers killed in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. He hopes to provide peace of mind for families of the fallen with his art.
Recently, Reagan received an e-mail from Germany for the first time. "Could you draw portraits of fallen German soldiers too?" asked a member of the US Army working at a military hospital in Landstuhl in southwestern Germany. Reagan agreed immediately.

Being an artist myself, I was particularly touched by this one. Drawing day in day out people other mourn for can bring the strongest one down. I have great respect for the man.
I hope the responses in this thread will stay respectful. :salute: And non political.
