Collection of the Pentagon
Commissioned by the Air Force Program

Above is the final painting I created for the US Air Force. It was presented at the Air Force Art Gala in Washington DC at Bolling Air Force Base along with 150 talented artists. Visiting the Nation's capital and being among so much history made me very proud of my artistic contributions to the country and its brave servicemen and women.

Air Force Art Program: USAF EC trip

Last week I was privileged to represent the U.S. Air Force Art Program and visit the U.S. Air Force Expeditionary Center to document the Air Force Phoenix Warrior Training Course and Air Force Exercise Eagle Flag. I was joined by fellow artists James Bennett, William Frake (Ice Age- Creator of Scrat) John Finger , Steven Walker; and escorted by Tech. Sgt Scott Sturkol.

It was an amazing experience that has left me with many great memories, insightful information and over 2000+ images of photo reference to sift through. I will be making a couple of paintings that I will then be giving to the Pentagon to be apart of the U.S. Air Force's Art Collection.



To see more images of the other artists and myself go to the USAF EC and see a feature by our guide, Tech. Sgt. Scott T. Sturkol
