The Iron Sergeant

I've been working on a two-dimensional piece lately, the latest addition to the "Sharing the Courage" series I've been working on with Public Affairs...

This "episode" features one Jesse Leach, a Sergeant with 2nd Bn 8th Marines who showed rugged, straight-forward heroism in coming to the aid of a wounded comrade hit by a sniper whileon patrol in Karmah, Iraq.

See the great photo slide show by CJ Chivers and Joao Silva of the NY Times("SNIPER I" is the tab to click on to see the correct slide show...)

I made a story board for the project, which I will now enhance and refine by applying watercolor and gouache to it...

 More to come...
