Ironically, Capt OJ Weiss is a old friend of mine from college days and it was a thrill to see your pencil sketch and now painting of him.

I'm a retired art teacher and would have loved to have shown your work to my students. I was curious about how you became a combat artist. <BR/> I, too, was impressed with Bill Mauldin. My uncle brought us one of his books when he was in the Army in WWII. <BR/>I admire your talent to do such realistic work. I tend to work in an expressionistic and cartoon style. <BR/>We don't hear of combat artists today, so I was certainly impressed to find your site. Wonderful, important work. Thanks for sharing what you do. You are such a talented young man.Ceceliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16132398614175975739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30879950.post-15491794769264537732007-07-06T12:31:00.000-04:002007-07-06T12:31:00.000-04:00beautiful paintings!beautiful paintings!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13389752072214123232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30879950.post-56306556280470247582007-06-27T02:43:00.000-04:002007-06-27T02:43:00.000-04:00Wow, just wow.Wow, just wow.Gail A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01903369916490697594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30879950.post-90612956701631328692007-06-23T19:28:00.000-04:002007-06-23T19:28:00.000-04:00Thanks, Kris, for posting these.Thanks, Kris, for posting these.Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269872465115056916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30879950.post-82268946593487876482007-06-22T23:05:00.000-04:002007-06-22T23:05:00.000-04:00I really like these, particularly the second and t...I really like these, particularly the second and third.
